[Quiet Man Cometh]

I still have my original LG flip phone that came with my contract before there were even alternate colours for the thing. I like, mostly because I can work it with one hand and have dropped it several times and it has yet to get any significant damage beyond a nick in the front case. It's my friend :). I like it mostly because it's so handy to have when I need to talk to people, which is all I'm ever inclined to do with a phone, hence I'm near the only one in the family and circle of friends who hasn't moved to touch screen or iPhone.

I've never managed to have it land in the washer. My unfortunately brother in law had that happen though, but didn't realize it until it hit the drier. I happened to come in and was hearing this repeared *thud* coming from the drier before investigating and pulling out a very blank and heated cell phone. I think he managed to drive over his iPhone last year.
