Cell Phones And Scum Bags.

[Teacher Mark 53]

My Wife got knocked off the back of a motorbike in Sai Gon a few days ago. The reason? A f%^$ing cell phone. One hit her and the other grabbed the phone. She hit her head, but is O.K.. That led us to yet another conversation about the importance of helmets and a conversation about having a cheap phone that no one wants to steal. Here is the replacement:

So she was riding her motobike while talking on the cellie? No offense, but She should have known better!!! It's been a known fact in Saigon or any major cities in Vietnam: Not to talk on the cellie while riding, for the VERY SAME REASON that thief will grab your cellphone and run.

Anyway, time to buy a new phone for her brother! No respectable vietnamese woman will live a day without her phone....

BTW, I love the suggested phone above!

She was a passenger with her girlfriend. She acknowledged that she had broken one of the cardinal rules of Sai Gon and already has a replacement. I'd love it to actually be the one in the picture. I'd also love to get ahold of the "men".

This reminded me of a scene from one of my all time favorite movies:

I'm so sorry. I hate when I hear of people doing this stuff for a stupid cell phone.

Same thing happened to Xuan in Siagon. Only she was standing on the street talking. I told her to never stand on the street. If she has to talk to someone go into a store or something. I have replaced her phone as well. I am happy she did not get injured when she was knocked to the ground.

Cell phones are expensive over there $300-> $500 and most carriers don't offer incentive when you have a 2-year-contract with them like in the US

That sucks. My wife lost a cell phone while she was walking down the street. Someone grabbed it out of her hand while on a motorbike.

The most important thing is that your wife is OK.

best thing i have found too do is buy a phone here and unlock it and send it too VN. so if anything happens or it gets stolen its not a big deal.

To late. She ran out and bought another one before we had a chance to talk about it. Thanks for the advice though. I'll keep that in mind.

The thing that pi$$es me off the most about it is I'm sure these cowards don't do it to men, or at least a very small percentage of the victims are men.
