    In the United States, the emergency telephone number 911 is the number to call for all types of emergencies. When someone dials 911, they are connected to a dispatcher who will ask them what the emergency is. The dispatcher will then send the appropriate responders to the scene.
    The term “howie” is a slang term for the emergency dispatcher. The term “chimney” is a slang term for the police. So, when someone calls 911 and asks for the police, they are actually asking for the “chimney.”

    In the United States, when you dial 911, the operator who answers will ask you what your emergency is. One of the options they give is “Fire.” If you select that option, you will be transferred to the Fire Department.

    When you call the Fire Department, the operator will ask you for your address. They will then dispatch a fire truck to your location. The fire truck will be driven by a firefighter, and will have a ladder on it. The ladder is used to get to the roof of the building.

    The firefighter who drives the fire truck is called a “captain.” The captain will be in charge of the firefighting operation. The other firefighters on the truck are called “firefighters.”

    When the firefighters get to the scene, they will assess the situation. If there is a fire in the chimney, they will use the ladder to get to the roof. They will then use a hose to spray water on the fire.

    When you call 911 for a medical emergency, the dispatcher will often ask you for your address. They need to know where you are so they can send the nearest ambulance. But what if you don’t know your address? How can the dispatcher help you?

    In some cases, the dispatcher may ask you for the name of the nearest intersection or landmark. But in other cases, they may ask you for the name of the nearest howie chimney.

    So why do they call howie chimney on 911? It’s a simple way for the dispatcher to get an idea of where you are. By asking for the name of the nearest howie chimney, the dispatcher can quickly determine your approximate location.

    So the next time you call 911, don’t be surprised if the dispatcher asks you for the name of the nearest howie chimney. It’s just a quick way to help them determine your location.
