So on Thursday I was in the Craft Center, making handles for a couple of mugs, and all of a sudden, a klaxon went off somewhere behind me.

 

A familiar klaxon.

 

I blinked and spun around to see a guy pulling his phone from his bag.

 

“Did … did you just go to Red Alert?” I asked.

 

He nodded sheepishly.

 

“That’s awesome,” I said, and he answered the call.

 

It’s fun when geeks meet.

That's awesome! My husband keeps talking about getting the TARDIS sound for his ringtone but hasn't done it yet. I've got a boring one, and if I got anything, it would be an old fashioned phone ringing. The coolest one I ever heard was a sonar ping. Freaky because it was my office mate's and she'd left her phone in the office and I had no idea what that sound was 'til I tracked it down to her bag. She's a diver, so the sonar made sense. Very cool, though!

I had the old-fashioned phone ring for a while. But the sonar ping is awesome.
