Out of Order

How does one damage their phone?

Why drop it in a bucket of water of course!

But back up, what, you say? In a bucket? Full of water?

Why yes! Of course, that's the best way to create a short that will dim the screen and cause the phone to tremble at irregular intervals.

Now, why a bucket.

Well, silly, that's how we fill the tank to the toilet!

Fill the tank?

Certainly, why? Does your toilet magically fill up all on it's own? Pfst. What a silly notion.

And you had the phone near the bucket because...

Well, it's all quite simple I was on the phone, chasing the cat who is fond of tipping buckets of water, and, well, it's all quite self-explanatory, really.

Really.


So why, exactly can one find water-proof watches, radios, cameras, disposable cameras and not a water-proof phone? Why, I ask you, why?

Daily Note on THE SOUTH: He is wearing plaid pajama pants underneath his work pants presumably due to the cold...that or he is intending to take a nap at some point during the day and would prefer to be comfortable.

*laughing* I'm sorry maybe the appropriate response to someone dropping their phone in water is not laughing, but the chain of events leading up to the phone in the bucket? Quite entertaining to visualize!

molly - oh it was a chain of events alright, whew. We finally got the toilet fixed so I'm hoping that will aid in keeping the next phone high and dry;-)

I think the cat had a devious plot to get you off of your phone.

rock - there are many of those, but at least those days lend to giggles on this site?

dilling - I could use a nap right now... Well, ha, silly cat, now you can't run up the minutes chatting away when I leave the cell at home - ha, I say, ha --

indoors - I could make money off that idea;-)

Crap. That sucks. I dropped my remote control in a jug of juice. Once it dried out, it was fine.
When WILL the toilet get fixed?

life - thankfully the toilet was fixed Saturday morning...the morning AFTER the phone incident.

Maybe juice is a better fluid for electronic devices?

Its all a plot by the cell phone companies to make more money - - or maybe as Dilling said - it was the cat?

gardenia - I suspect the phone company. They're charging an arm and a leg for a new phone!!!
