What happens when you leave your cell phone on top of the valve cover?

It will find its way onto the street somewhere between Cherry and South Meadow


Here's an even better one:

What happens when you come back from your trip at 2am with your backup Treo in hand?

My butterfingers let it fall face first into the corner of my desk and shatter the screen.

I must have some seriously bad karma right now.

At one point in time I was given an old Motorola Microtac to play with. Now that was a great phone.

The fact that you had your cell phone out and in use while near the valve cover means you use your phone far too much.

I do the same thing except with sunglasses. Somehow at least once a year a pair will get left under the hood and long gone, or laid somewhere else and get smashed when the hood gets closed.

Computer displays emit radiation, as do computers. I know you work on them all the time from your posts. Are you concerned with as well?

My Bold has the same flash, and I use it frequently as a flashlight!
