Ring me up
Hey everybody who's friended me and who checks their friends feed only! This is my first (and probably last) livejournal post. I have a situation that begs for the wisdom of the masses, and yet is not serious enough to warrant sending out an email. Here goes.

So AT&T, my new cell phone co., gave me credit for a free ringtone. This is great because I don't care for any of the pre-loaded ringtones, and have currently set my phone to "Old Telephone" (after a very scary incident with "Robot" when I thought the fridge was starting to talk to me). But "Old Telephone" often blends into the background, so I'd like something new. The problem is that AT&T's ringtones are the worst! If you have some free time, check it out.

Some things to consider:
1. I've never had a song as a ringtone.
     a. Will the song get caught in my head?
     b. If it's a song I like, will I eventually hate it?
2. Song must be easily heard in noisy environments.
     a. And not scary if I'm alone in the apartment.
     b. And not annoying for other people.
2. What does my song/noise choice say about me?
     a. I am dork, so it's okay if the song is a little dorky.
     b. Though I think I'd prefer something more obscure, so as to avoid point 1)a).

Right now I'm leaning toward the Deadwood theme. Or, alternately, forgetting about my free ringtone from AT&T and just making a ringtone of the old NBA on NBC theme.

What do you think, three people who magically found this entry?

I vote for the NBA/NBC themes. Everyone will recognize it, but they won't realize what it is for a second or two. I, of course, had the Florida fight song as my ring tone for a while and loved it. Ah, nostalgia.
Or maybe you can get the first few guitar licks and cymbal crashes of the 90210 theme. That would ROCK.
