Eulogy of a Cell Phone


We are gathered here today to mourn the passing of my 5 month life Cell Phone battery pack. Although experts and specialists in the field told me this "battery pack" would last only 5 months then would need replacing, it went strong. My cellphone pulled through this terminal illness to seek adventure with my comrads and I surviving a whopping extra year of faithful service before finally drawing its last surge of energy on february 12th 2006 at exactly 2:13pm. It was in intensive care hooked up to power support systems when at 5:43 pm we finally decided to pull the plug.
My phone was a good phone, a proud phone. A phone that allowed free nights and weekends after 7, with unlimited texting and no roaming charges, but roam it did, far and wide, across vast distances unbarred by "dead zones" and "weather complications". The phone fought valiently until its bitter end. so we sit here at our computers paying our last respects to "stott's cell phone, leave a message after the beep" if anyone has any last respects they would like to say, please speak now.....

Ashes to ashes
circuits to circuits
coast to coast
we will now give this battery pack its proper rights with a formal burial at sea, on the date of the 26th of February, god bless and we will meet again at radioshak...err heaven.
