1. You know how to find a cell phone if you know generally where it is?
Dial it and listen for the ring. True story! (True stories, actually.) ;)

3. we tried, but I hadn't noticed until the next day that I was actually
missing it, and by then the battery had died. That was our first thought.

5. I do that all the time.
At least once a week.

How sad is that?


Wanna know something even sadder? Later in the day I'll look at my cell phone and see that I missed a call from home. I'll call my husband and say: "You called me? No? Well somebody called my cell from home...oh...yeah...that was me...looking for my cell...nevermind."

And then I do it again a week later. :P

6. My wife has a search every morning for her work ID
Every stinking morning. I have been nice and not stated the obvious to her-if you had ONE place that it goes and if you put it there you would have no trouble finding it.

2. I have a Timex watch story like that
Always felt it would have made a good commercial for John Cameron Swayze (remember him?).

I found a Timex in the road while camping one year. It worked fine so I kept it. A couple of years later, I lost it while working at a riding stable. A full year later (after going through a Vermont winter), the owner of the stable had her giant manure pile carted off and while the guys were digging it up, they found my watch about a third of the way down.

I cleaned it up, wound it, and it still worked. I had that watch for another 5 or 6 years before I lost it permanently. Best watch I ever had.

Takes a licking but keeps on ticking!

8. Home cordless phone MIA
Or more like missing inaction. Can't find it. No way to locate it since battery is dead. Can't access voice mail because the # I dial is stored in the hand set. No caller ID on the base. So I don't even answer it. Our cell phone gets like a half of bar of reception inside or near our house. Thank Gore for the internet. I think tomorrow I will call off the search and go out and buy a new one.

9. I found a cell phone once
I called Verizon and they contacted the owner. I live in Mn. and the owner lived in Mass. he had been to the Mall of America when he lost it. Some of his family lived here and they picked the phone up for him.
