I have a cell phone that is about 3 years old,it's one of the larger/heavier ones.I have a leather case that I carry it in,it can clip on a belt or in a pocket.Anyway my girlfriend fusses at me all the time about taking the phone into resteraunts.I agree that it is rude to get or even make calls while others are trying to eat,so I always turn it off anyway.A few weeks ago we ate at this steakhouse one afternoon.It's a casual place,so I wore a t shirt and some cargo shorts,and I had the phone clipped in the side pocket of my shorts.When we were leaving we met a group coming in and had to try and squeeze by them.My phone got caught on a chair my shorts ripped.I turned back to see what happened and then I really ripped them.My girlfriend starts trying to get me loose and a waitress is now trying to help,but only made it worse.I ended up falling down,leaving all but the waist band of my shorts hanging on the chair with my phone!My girlfriend shrieks,"Oh my God!" and bursts into laughter.I jump up and I'm standing there in my boxer-briefs with my face blood red!The waitress is all embarrassed and still trying to help me get my shorts loose from the chair,and everyone in the place is now standing and laughing.I was sooo embarrassed,I finally ran to the car.My girlfriend came out with my phone,what was left of the shorts and a gift certificate for a meal for two(which was nice,but I won't be going back there!).She was laughing so hard she was crying,and said,"You see why I tell you to leave that phone in the car!"
