What'S The Number For 911?: America'S Wackiest 911

Rating:
Summary: Not as funny as the "stupid criminal" stories
Review: This book was both funny and scary. Sure, it's funny to read about bizarre 911 calls. But it's also scary to learn that some people are dumb and inconsiderate enough to call 911 for stupid things, such as finding out which gas stations are open.

The dark side of this book kept me from enjoying the humor. When I read the "America's Dumbest Criminal" books, I whipped right through them. This book took longer. I think that's because reading about stupid criminals getting their just desserts makes us cheer. But 911 calls (except the trivial ones) are generally made by everyday people who need help.

Still, it's an education. It makes me appreciate the work 911 operators go through.
