Observed the buttons, antenna parts and tiny cables. Bob the Monkey, (My Niece), was worried though, that the person who lost it had pictures in it that they would lose. So we stole the battery from her phone and tweaked it until we could fire it up.
We were able to see that there were pictures on it, and I steered through the menus to find the system page with the phone number. Called the number, and talked to a college student who gave me a perfect Stanley Ipkiss - "I didn't lose a phone' "I'm talking about a phone with your number? Found in Fremont in front of DeVry University?" "Oh, that phone, yes I lost that."
Hoo Boy. Confirmed my opinion of DeVry students...
I left it for her to pick up - we'll see if she shows up for it!]]>http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/thumb-msg-114145536339-2.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/synd-msg-114145536339-2.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/mob-msg-114145536339-2.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/gallery-msg-114145536339-2.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/large-msg-114145536339-2.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users10/yakkorex/default/feat-msg-114145536339-2.jpgFound on the double yellow linebuzznet:user:entry:id:23364082006--0-3-T03: 2:2:-08:002006--0-3-T03: 2:2:-08:002006--0-3-T03: 2:2:-08:00yakkorex I was going out to lunch last week when I saw a cell phone sitting in the median.

There are three in my car as well: two collections of travel essays and a book on cosmology.
I looked at the stack in the bathroom today and laughed - it just seemed like an unlikely collection to be read by one person.

Millions of years of weathering have sure rounded these boulders, as well as cracked them for more weathering to take place on sharp edges.
In the short run (next million years) they will be worn down to a pile of sand.
