Wacky 9-1-1 Calls ~ Mystery Question

Wacky 9-1-1 Calls is this week’s Mystery Question. I’ve enjoyed finding these posts in my archives! Now for the photo and verse.

Since I posted a sunset on Friday, I thought I’d post a sunrise for today. It’s another one from my son-in-law, Jeff, while he was out fishing on Lake Okeechobee right at dawn. The verse says it all.

Now for last week’s Mystery Question, which asked about things you could insure.

1. A jewelry store offered to refund their Christmas sales if the city got more than three inches of snow on Christmas day. Good thing because they got eight inches.
2. After someone attempted to steal Liberace’s candelabra, he insured it for one million dollars.
3. Speaking of celebrities, J. Lo insured her rear for $27 million dollars.
4. A burglar who was trapped in his victim’s garage for a week after the garage opener malfunctioned. He sued the homeowners for mental anguish and collected a million dollars.

And the answer is #2. If Liberace ever insured his candelabra, I can’t find any record of it.  I cannot believe #4. It happened in Australia, so maybe it’s different down there.

Now for this week’s Wacky 9-1-1 Calls Mystery Question. Three are true, one is made up–can you guess which one?

1. “9-1-1. What is your emergency?” “Uhh, I uh, want to report Taco Bell is out of taco shells. Can you do something about it?”
2. “9-1-1. What is your emergency?” ” I’d like to call and report a fire on the hillside just East of the city. 911: “Can you be more specific?” “Oh,no! It’s getting bigger! The whole top of the hill is on fire now! 911: “Stay calm sir, we’re sending somebody out.” “Doesn’t anybody else see this?! It’s lighting up the sky around it…it’s huge! Oh…oh, wait…911: “Sir?” “I am SO sorry…I’m not usually out this time of night, I just got off work late…that’s, that’s the sun…
3. “9-1-1. What is your emergency?” “My kid is allergic to peanuts. I’m afraid he’s going to die.” 911: “Has he consumed peanuts?” “Uh, no. But he’s playing with those peanuts Amazon packs their boxes with.”
4. “9-1-1. What is your emergency?” “My husband is up in a tree, and he won’t come down.” “911: Why is he in the tree?” “Hold on. Harold! Why are you up in that tree? The 9-1-1 operator hears his answer… “It was that or kill you.”

Okay Super Sleuths, which one did I make up? Leave your answer in the comments, and I’ll enter you in a drawing for …something…a water bottle!

For the next few weeks, I’m going to feature one of my earlier books. This week it’s The Christmas Campaign. I wrote it for the Harlequin Heartwarming line, and the ebook on Amazon is on sale for $1.99!
