In Case of Emergency
Paramedics will turn to a victim's cell phone for clues to that person's identity. You can make their job much easier with a simple idea that they are trying to get everyone to adopt: ICE.

ICE stands for In Case of Emergency. If you add an entry in the contacts list in your cell phone under ICE, with the name and phone no. of the person that the emergency services should call on your behalf, you can save them a lot of time and have your loved ones contacted quickly.

It only takes a few moments of your time to do.

Paramedics know what ICE means and they look for it immediately.

2. Good reason to use mobile telephones as fish tank ornaments
The fish swim around them, and if you position them properly, they
can hide underneath a clamshell. Then if any fish gets in trouble,
he merely stands under the mobile and ICE brings around the god of
little fish to sort things out.
