That's the Pits!

A funny story from the life of my host dad. At least it was funny for me, although I cannot say that it was funny for him.

He was at church at a Bible study and was reading Scripture when his cell phone rang. He kept reading and gave the phone to one of the church members to turn off. Instead of doing so, the person took the phone and went to make a call of his own. In the process of making the call somehow the phone was accidentally dropped down the church's pit latrine. I can imagine sitting on the toilet when, from below, the phone starts to ring. Of course the damage to the electronics would be such that this would be an impossibility. Anyways, I found this story mildly amusing. It was seriously the pits for my host dad.
