[geeks] Morning wakeup

[geeks at sunhelp.org]

~ Recalling a somewhat different surprise occurring
~ yesterday afternoon. Sitting at a local bar/cafe
~ here in Amsterdam. All of a sudden feel like
~ a jolt of electricity has hit my inner thigh.
~ Yowee! It takes a few seconds for me to realize
~ it is my new mobile phone set to the "vibrate" feature.
~ (never had this or used it before). Hmmm.. so that
~ is what happens when I get a call. Not really a 'bad'
~ feeling... just a bit too "intimate".  :)

I was stringing coax with a friend for a 2-way radio installation once. He
had a brand new pager on his belt. We were working inside a dropped ceiling
on ladders when he started screaming and squirming. He quickly fell off the
ladder on his back.

He thought he was being electrocuted when it was only his vibrating pager.
