Naked Paul Toast’s Insights

My brother-in-law, let’s call him BIL, has an iPhone 3G as well. He loves it.

A couple weeks ago, he, his wife and kids were coming home from a week-end away. They stopped off at a public conservation area for a break and something to eat.

BIL had let one of his daughters use his new iPhone. Some time had gone by, his daughter was nowhere to be found, BIL started to wonder where she was at.

He was then approached by his wife and daughter, they both had rather sullen looks.

“Something’s wrong.”
“What’s wrong?”
“Uhhhhh.”
“What’s wrong?”
[silence]
“WHAT”S WRONG?!”

“Well, when I was going to the outhouse, your iPhone fell out of my pocket.”
“Where is it?”
“It, kinda fell into the hole”
“WHAT!”
[more silence - but a much different kind of silence]

BIL, his wife and daughter, went up to the outhouse. BIL then proceeded to stick his head down the outhouse toilet to see if his iPhone was retrievable. It was to dark, he couldn’t see anything, but thought he could make out a black square object.

He lit a lighter, I don’t know how wise it is lighting a lighter and sticking it down an outhouse toilet along with your face. The things we do for our iPhones. Sure enough, there was his iPhone, lying flat on a huge clump of toilet paper, surrounded by lots of evil.

He sent his wife and daughter to see if they could find a long stick to fish it out. He stayed back to prevent other patrons from instituting a shock-and awe campaign on his poor iPhone.

Along came someone who needed the outhouse. BIL explained that his iPhone had been dropped into the outhouse, and would it be possible for them to use the other stall. Luckily it was a double. They did.

His face cringed with every glop. At least they weren’t direct hits, but shrapnel is always a concern.

His wife and daughter returned with a long branch. He was able to entangle the end of the branch onto the ear-bud and cable and retrieve it. Luckily, it was in a Griffin holder, landed flat on its back, and on the paper clump.

His daughter was tasked with cleaning it up.

After thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting it, it still works perfectly. He won’t use the ear-buds.
