5 Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do -- Things That Could Benefit You
For all the folks with cell phones. (This should be printed and kept in your car, purse, and wallet.
Good information to have with you.)
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually
be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
FIRST
Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of
your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network
to establish the emergency number for you, and this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is
locked. Try it out.
SECOND
Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in
handy someday. . . If you lock your keys In the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home
on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have
the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car
will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be
hundreds of miles away. If you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock
the doors (or the trunk). Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!'
THIRD
Hidden Battery Power... Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370#. Your cell
phone will restart with this reserve and will show a 50% increase in battery strength. This reserve will get
charged when you charge your cell phone next time.
FOURTH
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone? To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following
digits on your phone: *#06#. A 15-digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset.
Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. If your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and
give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card,
your stolen phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but you know that whoever
stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.
And finally:
FIFTH
Free Directory Service for Cells Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411
information calls -when they don't have to. Most of us do not carry a telephone directory in our vehicle, which
makes this situation even more of a problem. When you need to use the 411 information option, simply dial:
(800)FREE411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at all.
Program this into your cell phone now. This is the kind of information people don't mind receiving, so pass it on
to your family and friends!

Kitchen
I got some email asking to see the kitchen in our home so here is a shot looking in to the kitchen from the living room. I am not sure if you can tell but the cabinets are a distressed black. It doesn't show up well in the photo, but they have a hint of distress all around. Our kitchen is pretty small, but big enough to cook a meal.

Check this out
I was looking at "That Austin Girl's" blog and she had this video posted. It is not about the video, it is about the song. Check out Tollys Blog http://thataustingirl.blogspot.com/ She is very funny and creative and she hipped me to this cool video. Enjoy
Casa De Sandy and Tricia
Home Tour
I'm thinking of doing my own version of MTV Cribs and posting my home here on this blog. Any interest there, let me know. I have seen other people (morning shows) do this and I am always shocked at how shitty thier homes are. I know that sounded cocky but man, it was bad. Who still hangs guitars on the wall? Who still hangs charachter sketch's of themselves on their own wall. Pretty funny to see how people live. I know, I am snotty. Whatever. I may do it, I may just post another photo from the house. Not SUre
Other Bullet Points:
Follow me at www.twitter.com/sandymcilree Constantly updating that
What has happened to the Celtics, dropping 5 of 7 and now losing to the Rockets. Mid-season slump
Tricia is non-stop cleaning and organizing around the house. I guess this is called "nesting" well her nesting period, lasted a day, thereis nothing left to nest. Weird phenominon that that I can only support.
Slowly starting to get in the swing of things are work. We are bringing back some old JB and Sandy Classics, including Tom Jones Friday morning at 8am, We are bringing the often imitadated, "anyone listening who?" "The Wheel of Get To Know us" is coming back, also the Ode and bunch of other stuff. Check out the show if you strayed away and listened to someone else, just remember JB and I are always here, we are local, meaning we live here in Austin and so does everyone on our show, we only broadcast to Austin, so we can talk about what is happening in Austin. When you whore your show out to little towns around the country, you lose the audiance that is in your home market because you changed. We aren't changing, everyone else is, we just want to be your hometown morning show. Check back in a bit, I will post another photo from my home.
