I am Motorola’s dream demographic. I can’t keep track of my passport…so forget cell phone power cords. How exactly does one lose a cell phone power cord (or more accurately 35 cell phone power cords)? Listen…I can lose shoes while I am still wearing them – so a power cord is NOTHING. But it usually involves the intention of packing the charger on a trip without the actual execution of packing it (so a lot like Bush’s foreign policy). There’s a reason they sell power cords in airports, y’know. This little packing mishap is generally followed by a panicked trip to a place like “Byte Me” in Hattiesburg, MS to pick up fresh provisions – “oh good, the phone charger I am buying today is MUCH cheaper than the phone charger I bought yesterday before I left Nashville”. Excellent.
But this is my favorite part…if you stay at any Hampton Inn in America and tell them you lost your phone charger…they will produce cardboard box FULL of left-behind phone chargers. A hulking, tangled mess of dumb-ass mementos. And you just pick through it like you’re shopping at Goodwill. I usually take two or three…either get ready for the next trip OR stocking stuffers for the whole family.
And don’t even get me started on those Blue Tooth things. In addition to simple misplacement, you can actually wash those little f@ckers in a pants pocket. Trust me.
And now that I have traded in my Treo for a phone that actually works…would anyone like a collection of seven Treo phone chargers? They come with three very clean Blue Tooths [Blue Teeth?]
