What the 9 & under and 12 & under teams lack in experience,

Why parents drink?
The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had
not phoned in sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the
main computers, he dialed the employee's home phone number and was
greeted with a child's whisper. ' Hello
?
' 'Is
your daddy home?' he asked. ' Yes ,' whispered the small
voice. May I talk with him?' The child whispered, ' No .'
Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, 'Is
your Mommy there?' ' Yes .' 'May I talk with her?' Again the
small voice whispered, ' No .' Hoping there was somebody with
whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, 'Is anybody else
there?' ' Yes ,'
whispered the child, ' a policeman '.. Wondering what a cop
would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, 'May I speak
with the policeman?'
' No, he's busy ', whispered the child. 'Busy doing what?' '
Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman ,' came the whispered
answer.
Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background
through
the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked, 'What is that noise?' '
A helicopter ' answered the whispering voice. 'What ! is
going on there?' demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive. Again,
whispering, the child answered, ' The search team just landed a
helicopter .' Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the
boss asked, 'What are they searching for?'
Still whispering, the young
voice replied with a muffled giggle... '
ME
.'
