Actually I know where the fuck it is. I most likely left it in the damn car service car because the last call I made was to the car service asking where the fuck the car was.

Of course they “couldn’t find it”. Fucker’s probably selling it right now on EBay to some terrorist.

At least it was like 3 years old and I’ve been thinking about getting a new one. Not one of those stupid RAZR phones though. They suck.

I’m just annoyed that I have to find a new phone now so if anyone has any not RAZR suggestions that would be great.

Well, you’re going to have to tell us what you like and don’t like in a mobile phone before anybody can make any suggestions. Saying what you don’t like about the RAZR it might be a good place to start.

See, what they need, is a cell thingy, that goes on your key chain, and it would have a button on it. The button, when pressed, would make the cell phone ring like a bastard, until you found it.

That would be neat.

I’m pretty sure your cell phone is somewhere in MPSIMS. Look under the couch.

I like this flip phone from Samsung. I bought it because the numbers light up and the numbers are big. Plus the screen is easy to read. It does stuff I don’t know how to do, but big lit up numbers and a screen that’s easy to read is why I bought it so, I don’t care if I don’t learn how to do all that stuff.

To find it, just open a can of tuna fish.  
The phone was under the cat, who is no longer sleeping on it, 'cause she’s running to kitchen, _fast_

at my house, all you have to do is open the drawer where the can opener lives.

how he can differentiate that drawer opening from the one right next to it, i’ll never know.

You could always post the phone number here and we’ll keep dialing it until you find it.

Of course we’d have no way of knowing when you found it. (How long of a battery life did that thing have anyway? 😉 )

Hey, don’t think of it as a ‘ring-tone’. Think of it as your new ‘theme song’. 😃

I was going to return my Verizon RAZR because of the feature crippling Verizon had done, but I decided to go online and do the mods that give it PC commucation capability, vibe+ring and 5 minute video recording.

Wait, what? You’re paying the phone provider for the phone, and they nerf certain key features of it so you have to mod it to use it properly? That’s a bit shit…
