A Cell Phone for Snick?
Posted Friday, August 5th, 2005 by nycgadgetgirlOK, I must admit, sometimes on a Saturday morning when I’ve left Snick to wait in the apt building lobby while I run to Starbucks for a frap, I get in the LLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG line and I think "I wish I could call Snick and tell him not to worry, that I’ll be back soon." Um, but… then I come to my senses!
- He’s a dog.
- He wouldn’t know what I was saying even if I could call him and he could somehow answer.
- HE’S A DOG.
So, when I saw this cell phone collar for pets (which hasn’t actually been released, by the way), I couldn’t help but wonder… if I put one of these on Snick and then called him from Starbucks, wouldn’t he be just a bit confused when my voice suddenly came out of the side of his neck???
I’m all for applying existing technology in new ways, but this one doesn’t make sense to me.

Oh, the mental image of Snick trying to look at his neck and figure out why your voice is emanating from it. Hee!!
