What do have as your cell-phone ringer?
My phone's pretty basic, so I can't get the "fancier" ring tones and songs, but I have the "Mission Impossible" theme song.

I keep expecting to answer it someday and hear, "Your mission, should you choose to accept it..." and then I want to answer, "No. No, I don't accept it at all..."

hee hee :silly:

1. Mine's silent
I don't really enjoy annoying the hell out of everybody with obnoxious ring tones.

2. I know I'm going to get flamed...
but I have Hoobastank's The Reason. I really like that song. But I know it's not a favorite for a lot of DUers.

3. Don't and won't own one.
Nothing's so urgent in my life that I need to be connected to a telephone 24/7.

:D

6. "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin
The song featured in "The Sting". That's what plays for almost incoming calls when I have the ringer on. (When I'm in the office, I have to keep it silenced.)

The only exception is calls from The Princess. I have the phone set so it plays the "Theme from Carmen" for her calls.

7. I don't have one, but my best friend's is "If I Only Had a Brain"
from the Wizard of Oz. She put it on her phone in 2000, and isn't taking it off until the idiot is out of the White House.

11. A midi my husband made for it
I used to have a Nokia, with a ring tone called 'jumping' that I really like. I recently got a Motorola and couldn't get that ring tone for it. So he wrote one and sent it to my phone that is very close to the Nokia one!

14. AC/DC Back In Black, the opening guitar riff.
And it's the real song clip too, not a ring tone.

21. Nothing. Vibrate.
I think everyone should use the vibrate mode. Especially my co workers who like to leave their phones at their desks and walk away for extended periods of time.

24. Reveille most of the time.
Vibrate at times when I don't want to hear a ringer interrupt what I'm doing.

25. "Coatesville Iced Tea" by The New Kings of Rhythm
Which, admittedly, is my band. It's the main riff from a tune off our new album looped over and over.

26. mine rings or vibrates
sounds just like a phone!

ring tone people- I have noticed that most folks that have songs for ring tones tend to let it play through the song. Do you? Or do you pick it up right away?
I worked with a guy with the 1812 Overture on his, he would conduct along with it-jerk

30. Ooooh no; I pick mine up ASAP!
I try to be really conscientious; I don't want to annoy anyone! I ALWAYS turn the ringer off in movie theaters and other places where cell phones are a no-no.

MC5 songs being licensed to Cingular is the 4th sign of the apocalypse.
