How NY students get around school's cell phone ban

They hide them where the sun doesn't shine. "It isn't hard for girls at all. We just put the phone in our underwear," says Veronica Abreu, 16. "If the metal detector goes off, they only search your lower legs and upper body." Girls say they also sneak phones into school for boys. (New York Daily News)

They smuggle them in for boys??? Great, just what I need...a phone that reeks of tuna. There's not enough Lysol in the world to make me want to stick a phone that's been all up in some chick's noonie up near my face.

The metal detector goes off and they only search their legs and upper body?

Considering what else could be snuck in, why even bother having metal detectors in the first place?

Guys, it's called a betty now, allegedly.

And there isn't a guy on this planet I'd stuff a cellphone down my pants for. Download 'Purring Kitty' for me, and that's a whole other ballgame.

I presume these cell phones are set to Vibrate

Isn't it funny how so many of these low-income individuals manage to find $20 a month just to store their phones at the local bodega?

Why don't the schools provide a check service at the door? Charge 50 cents per phone to check it at the beginning of the day and retrieve it at the end of school. The school could make some money and the kid can have his or her phone on the way to and from school. I can see where some kids might legitimately need their cell phones after school.

wllysmrth.... How dare you actually make sense. That is totally uncalled for and as repayment the black helicopters will be over your house tonight!

Odd that I made it all the way through school, and to and from school, without a cell phone.

Ok...EWWWWW. That is just beyond nasty. (To the first two posters...for God's sake, grow up.)

Not quite sure why a kid needs a cell phone at school, but they must be pretty desperate to smuggle it in like contraband, but I'm with Soo on this one. There's not a man alive that's worth smuggling in ANYTHING into ANYWHERE in that particular area of my body.

I'd make a lousy drug mule.

JD,
I apologize. Please call off the copters. I am trying to redeem myself; check out my post on the Bigfoot thread.:)

Actually, maybe a cell phone company could leverage this incident for advertising. Siemens makes phones. I can envision a new slogan now:

Hey ladies, put some Siemens in you underwear!

...or maybe they could come out with smaller models that would fit more easily into your drawers.

The new Motorola Ringy-Dink is small enough to fit in your undies with no unsightly bulges. So upgrade today, and put a Ringy-Dink in your pink stink.

14 comments so far and not one pun about the Razr phone.

I'm disappointed.

You know, telling trade secrets online like that might not be a good idea. Teachers and principals are known to go online too.
