A couple of acquaintances of mine recently were injured in Motorcycle accidents going over 100 mph.A *young kid* passed them up at 110+ on a MV Agusta Serie Oro F4. Well, they didn't like that at all. One tried to catch up to and pass the F4. 1st Rider + Rock = Motorcycle and oil everywhere. (Oil slick was @ 15 yards/metres) 2nd Rider + Oil = Slide x Fall x Slam into barrier x Bike over cliff 2 Riders = Helicopter Ride to Hospital = Casts here and there. It's now a hassle to answer the phone, let alone dial it.I propose a Cast with embedded phone. *Ring* *Bonk* "Ow... Hello?"-- thumbwax, Jul 23 2002 I prescribe bedrest with sensory deprivation for these two bozos.-- DrCurry, Jul 23 2002 Of course - it's just a tragically humorous anecdote & they're just acquaintances who've got 40 years of motorcycling experience guts and less brains between them.Eliminate that cause - would a Cast Phone serve a porpoise for someone injured in brainier circumstances?-- thumbwax, Jul 23 2002 Only if you can also stick phones in leg casts. That way, an accidental break helps to improve your flexibility like never before. -knee phones for the less adventurous -ankle phones for the yoga gurus-- madradish, Jul 23 2002 My first priority would be a cast that would scratch the itchy places.-- FarmerJohn, Jul 23 2002 oh FarmerJohn, for that all you need are some symbiotic parasites to scuttle around inside your cast.-- sappho, Jul 23 2002 gaaaaahhhh-- sappho, Jul 23 2002 FJ: set the phone to vibrate, and I think it would do the trick. (Better that than cockroaches, anyway.) (But we already discussed vibrating casts, and they're Baked.)-- DrCurry, Jul 23 2002 If my cell phone keeps dropping calls, it's going to need it's own cast...-- Mr Burns, Jul 23 2002 bliss, you and most others missed *sexybob* trolling, with *carts_with_no_punts* and *syren* annotating everything in sight. *parts_with_no_cunts* also changed the ideas with some frequency - This is why *parts_with_no_cunts* - the diversion - was marked as a troll elsewhere.-- thumbwax, Jul 23 2002 Errr - handsfree kit?-- Seaneeboy, Apr 07 2003 random, halfbakery
