Dialing for Dingbats

Last night LLB wanted to call her friend S up north. It's a long distance call.
She was supposed to dial 197.... She dialed 1911 and added the digits. Needless to say, she got the emergency dispatch. I told her they were going to call back and she'd darn well better answer.

She answered. She apologized profusely. She handed the phone over and I explained her mistake to the dispatch operator. They took our name and address.... I'm sure we're now on the Do Not Respond list.

I've gotta teach that kid how to dial...
