I'm bored with all of the ones I have. What're y'all using?

Crap.
My ringtones suck.


ps...I have my house phone back!

yeah, yours do. :D

pm me the number, I think I deleted it awhile back
 
I have the theme from Indiana Jones. Makes me smile each time I hear it.
 
I use parts of actually songs I like. My main ring tone is the instrumental part of Merlin's Time by Al Stewart.

I let my friends pick out what ringtones they like, so I know its them when they call. So I have a bunch of Al Stewart songs-I just love hearing his voice! some Fleetwood Mac, Shakari and other songs.

There is this site where you can convert songs you own to ringtones, you can even pick out how much and what part of the song you want. If you do it for free it takes about a day for them to email the ringtone to you. I use my blue tooth to upload it onto my phone. They also text them to your phone.
 
Iggy Pop - Passenger for my own phone.
Alice Cooper - Elected for my work phone.

Just writing that down makes me feel indescribably old.

'S'OK, Marsh. Just being in a thread about ringtones shows you're wearing well.

Technology hasn't passed you by.

And I know all the words to Gilligans Island.

Three things:

1. Did you ever stop to consider the start of "Dances with Wolves", a serious movie, starts the same way as F-Troop?

2. Did you know that Wrangler Jane (Melodie Patterson) was 16, playing the love interest of 32 year old Ken Berry. Convincingly I might add. They didn't make sixteen years olds like that a few years later when I was 16!

3. It wasn't until I was older, I realized the Indians were all played as New York Jews.
 
Mine's Dragoste tin Dei (Numa Numa song)

You could have "Run from a slutty date" all the time.
 
Right now some new agey thing just to annoy the kids.

But my son just plays whatever from his iTunes song library. He holds the phone up to his computer speakers and records a bit. Then he uses that sound file as his ringer. It turns out pretty good. Easy peasy and he changes all the time.

Give it a try with the F-Troop theme.

My phone is older and can't do funky stuff. I need a new one.

I don't know how to do it, but he customized it for me...I'm lucky I have a genius who understands phones. And me.
 
The other (hope he doesn't see this), against his will, loaded James Blunt's 'You're beautiful' for me. Should see them turn on the subway. Way to go.
 
The Gorillaz on a loop, singing
"Get the cool
Get the cool shoeshine..."

I think I'll try your son's trick, Jomar.

Sixteen years old? Well then, I think I'm gonna have to call a halt to this thread right now.

As for knowing the words to Gilligan's Island:

1. Everyone knows that; and

2. Do you prefer the "and the rest" version or the "the Professor and MaryAnne" version?

Mmmmm, Maryanne.
