Fone follies

Last night our phone rang five different times, but when we answered, there was no one at the other end of the line. As you can imagine, this became pretty annoying. On the sixth time, I decided to just listen for a while to see if I could identify the source of the call from the background noise (probably futile, you say? Wait for it). After about three minutes, someone laughed, and I recognized the laugh! It was my sister's voice. I remembered that she was working at her restaurant, so I called her and asked, "Where's your cellphone?" Turns out it was in her purse, which was on the floor; she'd been kicking it. Let this be a lesson to you cell users (particularly new ones); turn the phone off when you don't expect to use it, or risk the wrath of those whose numbers you've pre-programmed.

Yet another reason I am not fond of cell phones. But I don't want to get started on that one.
