    Tim,

    I used to have a fart as my text notification... someone would always end a K>text at the wrooong time... so yea.. it did'nt last long.

    One time, I had a Morse Code sequence as my ringtone. It
    embarrassingly went off during a license exam session several years ago
    (I'm a Volunteer Examiner (VE) with ARRL/VEC, and have been doing such
    for over 10 years).

    When it went off, one of the examinees said "I though there wasn't
    going to be a Morse Code test!!"...boy, did I blush!! :P

    Tony,

    I know someone who had the fart text tone. He changed it after I "pranked" h V>a few times with real farts. Found it a bit hard to work out whether he V>actually got a text or not! :D

    ROFLMAO!!

    Should have just kept it up, and said yes... and make him tap it out on the table or something.. It would amaze you at what one can accomplish when forced to.
