Buffet had great finesse, so do old people...before taking the law into ones own hands, guide the law to the right response and action...here is a true event reported from Meridian, MS..lots of common sense there...HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU’RE OLD AND DON’T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.

> George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his

>
> George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there

> He phoned the police, who asked “Is someone in your house?” and he said

LMAO! Shared it with my hubby.
I’m on a first name basis with the Cops who patrol my neighborhood ($750k to get in) and some of the DTs at the Pct. This was a ‘nobody locks his doors’ town but now they tell me they are seeing a steady increase of burglaries by ‘hispanic males’. These break-ins spike every summer now. The appearance of day-laborers mowing folks’ backyards is just a coincidence, I’m sure.
