Ringtones?

Because I love things that get old really really quickly, I've set up "You have a message from Google Calendar" as a ringtone for when Google Calendar sends me a message.

Because it draws stares of confusion from strangers, and the mild ire of my wife, I've also set up the CAT TOWN theme as a ringtone, for when my wife calls.

Because I love you, you can download them to your phone here. They'll ask you for an email address, but they won't verify that it's real.

Because derspatchel's team of hungry lawyers might come after me at any moment for using the CAT TOWN theme without first obtaining all rights and permissions (although I did ask nicely, to no response), you might want to act quickly, as I'll be taking it down at the first hint of a C&D. Or even a comment asking me to.

Because Verizon doesn't love you as much as I do, from what I understand, you're probably out of luck if they're your cell phone provider. You're probably also out of luck if you're not in the United States (or maybe Canada).

Because I have a third slot available before they start charging me for my "store," I'll probably add something else. Eventually.

Woohoo!

The good news is David Sedaris is coming to Memphis at the hundreds of seats Cannon Center, and I don't think I'll be out of town this time.

The bad news is that seats are $175/pair. I guess a good chunk of that is a contribution to Public Radio, but considering that the last time I saw him (two visits ago, for Me Talk Pretty One Day), it was both free and intimate, as in fewer than a hundred folks in a bookstore. He signed my copy "To Randal--So nice to finally meet you in person."

Still, I'm thinking early birthday present for myself.
