Hope everyone had a great weekend!!
If your weekend was like mine, you probably had one too many drinks( if it was exactly like mine, you were incontinent as well). And if you were under a haze of hefeweizen and tequila, I hope you didn't DWI. I don't mean driving while intoxicated. Something infinitely worse-dialing while intoxicated. Yes, those little gems of weakness. We've all done it. Alcohol induced lapses of good judgement and self-digninty that result in a phone call to an ex or cute co-worker. No matter how hard you try to veil the call as a "friendly check-up", it still screams lonely, pathetic, desperateness. If you're lucky, the other person won't pick up and you won't try again in 5 minutes. However, if it's been an extremely productive night and you traded in your bud lights for jaeger bombs, you leave the DVM-drunken voicemail. Stellar! Now your shame and humiliation can live forever and with the push of a few buttons can be replayed for the amusement of friends and co-workers.
Now, I just ordered a new cell phone last week. It can play mp3s, take photos, record video, give directions, and taps when I'm done peeing. But will it prevent me from a DWI? That's a negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full. Is it so hard to have a breathalyzer integrated into a cell phone? We should be able to breathe into the mouthpiece and if we blow above a .08 then the phone prevents you from calling someone for an hour. That's not so hard is it Motorola? You can give it a catchy name like the Padd- the phone against drunk dialing. Nokia, I'm tasking you.

Who did you call and am I going to get to listen to the message? They do have a service that will block certain phone numbers from being dialed during the hours you are most likely to be hammered. You might want to sign up......
Good news! There is a phone that's right up your alley. It's a breathalyzer, karoke machine, an MP3 player, a camera and a universal remote. I guess that's in case you get too drunk to find your remote. It also has hangover remedies for the next morning! If your Blood Alcohol level is above a certain mark it won't let you dial certain numbers. Unfortunately for you it's only available in Korea right now. I guess you'll have to try to restrain yourself until it makes it's way to the states. Here's the link - http://www.kfmb.com/features/consumer_alert/story.php?id=56452
