Default I lost my phone

Apparently, my phone likes the water even more than I do. That is why I was so surprisedwhen it jumped off my hip and went in the water.

If you enjoy talking to me as much as I enjoy talking to you, please PM me your number.

That would explain why some fish answered when I tried to call you this afternoon. It was mumbling about scurvey longliners, said something that I could only guess was a fishy profanity, and hung up.

I was on my way to go bait fishing.

That's when it happened.

My new phone will not be here until the morning.

as many cell phones as we have all baptised, you'd think they'd put a waterproof one on the market

They have something that is water resistant that I looked into. The only problem was it cost about as much as an 80 wide.


That is why they have insurance.

The phone is easy to replace... unfortunately, the contact numbers are not so easy.

There is a phone out there that is waterproof and shock resistant. Its called a G'zOne one or GZ1. If you Google that you'll find out what I'm talking about. Its no BS either. I finally got one after greasing yet another phone. Believe me, I am the ultimate phonesecutioner. Max life span of a phone in my possession is 3 months tops.
The day I got it I walked over to my neighbors house and proceeded to chuck it into the pool while my neighbor and I were BS'ing. You should have seen the look on his face. Although I can't figure out which look of shock/astonishment was better, the one when I threw it in, or the one after I fished it out and proceeded to make a call.

Ollie is correct. I work for Verizon Wireless and it is the real deal. Manufacter specs only guarantee up to depth of 1 meter .

Ollie , be careful when you do the pool demo. Make sure you dry the phone off especially the keypad. When the keypad is depressed the water resistant seal is opened. You can get residual water damage. In other words it may take a day or a week before it begins malfunctioning.
