Back before Western Airlines was consumed by Delta I was taxing for takeoff at LAX. A Western DC-10 was doing likewise.
The ground controller was so busy she was talking continuously without even breathing. An F-27 commuter had landed on RW 25R and turned on to the "connector" taxiway just ahead of the Western DC-10 creating a possible conflict. The F-27 hadn't contacted ground control yet.
She gave the Western a call:
GC: Western 123, use caution for the F-27. I'm not talking to him yet.
W123: (A really quick witted co-pilot, no doubt) Roger, we see the little Fokker.
Total silence on ground freq. for about 2 minutes!
