Cellphones

Much like the Simpsons joke about Skinner being told to not go through so many tunnels by his mother, my friends have turned it into a coded farewell when we have to hang up quickly. "Going through a tunnel. Seeya later." which quickly degenerated into "TUNNELTUNNELTUNNEL*hangup*"

I get some funny looks if I do this in a public place.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, there's a couple of tunnels in the hills when you head towards the East Coast, but nothing ridiculously long. Its just one of those inside jokes that resurfaces every now and again.

I've always been behind the wave of technology in cellphones. I only recently upgraded to a colour phone. Its there for when I need it and people need to reach me, but I don't spend all my time SMSing or calling people.

Example: A woman from Sydney called me up about a job. I was driving at the time so I put her on speakerphone (neat concept by the way) and continued to drive, changing gears while holding my phone in that hand. No automatic transmission was available at the time. It worked surprisingly well.

PS It was probably illegal but I pretty much kept the phone out of view so it looked like I was talking to myself anyway.
