Joke - Looking for me!

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers.

He dialled the employees� home phone number and was greeted with a child�s whispered, �Hello?�.

Feeling put out at the inconvenience of having to talk to a youngster the boss asked, �Is your Daddy home?�

�Yes,� whispered the small voice.

�May I talk with him?� the man asked.

To the surprise of the boss, the small voice whispered, �No.�

Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, �Is your Mommy there?�

�Yes,� came the answer.

�May I talk with her?�

Again, the small voice whispered, �No.�

Knowing that it was not likely that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with the person who should be there watching over the child.

�Is there any one there besides you?� the boss asked the child.

�Yes,� whispered the child, �a policeman.�

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee�s home, the boss asked, �May I speak with the policeman?�

�No, he�s busy,� whispered the child.

�Busy doing what?� asked the boss.

�Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman� came the whispered answer.

Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the ear piece on the phone, the boss asked, �What is that noise?�

�A hello-copper,� answered the whispering voice.

�What is going on there?� asked the boss, now alarmed.

In an awed whispering voice the child answered, �The search team just landed the hello-copper!�

Alarmed, concerned, and more than just a little frustrated, the boss asked, �Why are they there?�

Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle, �They�re looking for me!�
