I'ts dead, Jim!

Yeah, they tell you not to do this, but not really, but there's no warning in the book for ... running your cellphone through the washing machine. I guess I'm fortunate it started clunking in the dryer and then I found, vibrating (which it doesn't do) and the screen flashing like it's possessed. yanked out battery. Nope, dead Jim. Ran off to Best Buy, replaced with the new pink LG Flare (which is quite pretty) and transferred all my $/time over to the new phone.

Now, to choose a ringtone. Ohmygawd, they've got Stargate Atlantis, MacGyver, Chips, Avengers! But sniff, no Flashpoint, Adderly, Night Heat... OOh, they have Flipper, but must think about THAT blaring out when the phone rings... Hmmm....Nah. Oooh, Gilligan's Island (do you detect a theme here?)

Decisions, decisions...

They don't do well in the toilet either...so one of the ladies at work tells me.

Ringtones are so fun. Let's see I have the Banana Splits theme for my coworkers and work. I have Manamanah for everyone else. I have Rock and Roll Part 2 for Hubby!! He has Maverick for his ringtone.

Have fun choosing.

I don't know whether you get this with the Flare, or in the US for that matter, but when I got my LG Cookie there was a leaflet in the box and when you sign up at the LG site, they give you a load of points for free downloads - ringtones, wallpapers, games, etc.

I hear they don't do well in soapy dish water either.

Well that's a way to get a new phone fast. I've never heard of the LG Flare. What's it like? (I don't think we get them here in Canada) I've been shopping for a new phone, almost time to reup my plan.

Go with the SGA one.

Atlantis? Where?

Ooops. I had a friend drop her iPhone in the toilet. My son dropped his nano in the toilet too. I ran an iPod shuffle through the laundry. It was fine, believe it or not.

Hey, you got a cool phone out of it.

My sisters husband found out, that draining them in hard liquor isn't helping as well.

And for the ringtone: I have the Doctor Who theme for quite some time now :)

Oooh...An Adderly ring tone would be so cool! And it's so nice to know I'm not the only one who still remembers Night Heat.

My brother dropped one of his down a sewage and I think another died in some motor oil. He really shouldn't take them to work with him. :)
