A few days ago I was awakened at six a.m. as, outside my little house, some guy yelled "Are you happy now??!" accompanied by a loud bang. Later in the morning I found a metallic green cell phone lying in my yard that had parted company with its battery. A short search in  the bushes turned up the battery which I installed and which permitted us to read a  few of the text messages chronicling the lead-up to the six a.m.  phone-fling. The apparent owner was pictured, sans clothing, among the phone's photos, but I didn't recognize her as being from the 'hood. Her contact  list included such characters as Dave(Hippy), clearly she knows a variety of Daves, and Ass-Munch Monhagen. We  couldn't decide who to call to report the phone as found (Dave?  Ass-Munch?), and now, sadly, a night in the rain and the dwindling  battery have rendered it useless.*
* Editor's note: after this blog entry was composed the phone dried out sufficiently that I was able to call "Mom" who, when I explained the circumstances, sighed heavily and said, "I'll tell her." I swear I could hear her rolling her eyes.
