Loving for Amor (on the Wrong Phone Lines)

Sorry, I'm a little steamed...I had to get after someone about not covering their mouth at the library while coughing. Afterall, it's still cold season. And no, I'm not apologizing. Perhaps I could have been nicer...but still...

Feel better? Okay.

Here's a story out of the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex, from the ABC affiliate WFAA-TV, Channel 8.

A man named Regulo Rodriguez calls 911. Obviously, he has an emergency. A really bad emergency- not unlike serial cougher not far from me, right?

He's having a heart attack, of sorts. But he's not in any physical pain.

No, true believers. He only wants a kiss. Yes...just a kiss, damnit!

You see, Rodriguez called 911 operators in the Dallas suburb of Frisco- shut up, San Francisco, I'm not making fun of you guys- not once. Not twice. Not even ten times.

He called a grand total of 170- 170!- times.

So you mean to tell me, Darren, that this joker tied up lines only to ask for a kiss?
A FUCKING, GODDAMNED KISS?

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!

He's now charged with making silent and abusive calls to 911.
