What's funnier is when you have a group of people with the same factory issued ringtone. I spent a week with 9 other girls at the beach (all platonic - sorry for those of you savoring the idea of 10 47 year olds playing naked) and at least half of us had the same ringtone - the Blackberry ATT one - and we'd run around trying to figure out whose phone it was ;)
Speaking of the days before cell phones - when my brother was 9 and I was 13, he fell and split his chin open on the fireplace hearth. 911 didn't even exist then - though we DID have phones, honest. A neighbor's maid had to drive us to the hospital. He sat there for several hours holding rags under his bleeding chin before the hospital could get in touch with one of my parents (my mother was shopping, my father at a long lunch meeting) to get permission to start sewing him up. So things weren't so great before the days of cell phones and you can bet your ass both of my parents would have taken that call if they'd had a cell.
