>"Hello", says a little girl's voice.
>
>"Hi, honey, it's Daddy," says Bob. "Is Mommy near the phone?"
>
>"No, Daddy. She's upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Frank,"
>
>After a brief pause, Bob says, "But you haven't got an Uncle Frank, honey!"
>
>"Yes, I do, and he's upstairs in the bedroom with Mommy!"
>
>"Okay, then. Here's what I want you to do. Put down the phone, run upstairs
>and knock on the bedroom door and shout to Mommy and Uncle Frank that my
>car's just pulled up outside the house."
>
>"Okay, Daddy!"
>
>A few minutes later, the little girl comes back to the phone. "Well, I did
>what you said, Daddy."
>
>"And what happened?"
>
>"Well, Mommy jumped out of bed with no clothes on and ran around screaming.
>Then she tripped over the rug and fell down the front steps and she's just
>lying there. Her neck is at a funny angle. I think she's dead."
>
>"Oh my God... And what about Uncle Frank?"
>
>"He jumped out of bed with no clothes on too and he was all scared and he
>jumped out the back window into the swimming pool, but he must have forgot
>that last week you took out all the water to clean it, so he hit the bottom
>of the swimming pool and is just lying there, not moving. He may be dead
>too."

>There is a long pause, then Bob says, "Uh ... swimming pool? Is this
