Ringing phone...

BubbaWPB · 01-28-2006, 11:00 PM

This really is sort of a reefkeeping question, but I don't think it belonged in the other forums...

OK, is it just me, or does this happen to you, too? The phone goes all day without ringing. It may go for days without a single call. Then without fail, when I stick my hand in the tank up to my armpit... *RRRIIINNNNGGGGG*

How does it know to do that?!?

Yes, it never fails to ring in the middle of my water changes.

I don't have a cell phone, and my home phone is in my room and i'm two stories lower at the time. E vita bella.

We have our ways of making you mad. The phone companies actually plan this.

Never fails, happens to me too. That's what answering machines are for. If people don't like talking to a recording, they aren't gonna like the next option either.

My tank was (I sold it Charlie) in the livingroom and my TV displays the caller ID info on the screen so I could decide if it was a call worth drooling water across the floor or not.

Could this phenomenon be a corollary to Murphy's Law?

It indeed passes the Senate's communication comittee.
