Hot Phone
Published Jan 01, 1900
A man with two badly burned ears went to the emergency room for medical treatment. "So, what happened," asked the doctor. "Well, my wife was ironing while I was watching the ballgame on TV," began the man. "And she put the hot iron near the telephone and when the phone rang, eyes on the tube, I answered the iron." The doctor nodded, "But what happened to the other ear?" "Well, no sooner had I hung up," said the man, "when the same guy called again."
