:Awww, she's a good dog, she wouldn't bite anybody, come on in!
How many times you heard that one?

10 seconds later you are dragging the dog around attached to the pant leg of your brand new uniform pants that you spent your last yearly amount on to get. No, she's a great pet!
Are you here to work on my phone? (you're across the street at someone else's house running a wire) Ever had someone ask you that?
Don't mind the mess, I haven't had time to clean up today (piles of stuff everywhere, rotted floor boards). Another classic line in the world of repair.
Back on topic though, this really sounded like a T-R short to me...what with the static and all when dialed.
Hehe, actually, at least once. I was working on a guys phone and he told me exactly that, except there were two dogs, a little harry thing and one that looked like half a pitbull. I was watching the one that resembled a pitbull and the little hairy one ran up and took a plug that eventually required stitches. You know what the next thing he said was?
