My Favorite ATC Story Involves An Old-timer Who Would Get Rather Excited When It Got Busy.

My favorite ATC story involves an old-timer who would get rather excited
when it got busy. It seemed as if he would think up zingers at home and use
'em at some convenient moment. Anyway, he's working USA553 westbound and is
about to turn him over to Cleveland...

Controller: USA353 (sic) contact Cleveland Center 135.6.

<pause>

Controller: USA353 contact Cleveland Center 135.6!

<pause>

Controller: USA353 you're just like my wife you never listen!

Pilot: Center, this is USA553, maybe if you called her by the right name
you'd get a better response!
