Wow, if that's not a Darwin Award runner-up, I don't know what is.

And yeah: WI, not MI.

Are you aware that storm sewers are not used to transport human waste? In fact, they carry excess water from... storms.

@2: He would be a Darwin award winner! You are a runner-up if you manage to survive your colossal stupidity.

My cell phone has been lost or dead, I'm not sure which, for months, but I used to have to carry a pager for work. Once I was working in an unfinished bathroom and managed to drop the pager into the open standpipe hole that the toilet was going to be installed over soon. Never saw it again.

Is this a trend? A 16-year-old from North Carolina drowned after diving in a lake after his cell phone.

It's like the old Jack Handey "Deep Thoughts" item about when you drop your keys in molten lava. Forget 'em, man, 'cause they're gone.
