    One Ringy-Dingy, Two Ringy-Dingy: Lawyers Can Express Themselves With Two Fr*ee, Funny Ringtones

    The ringtone on a person's cell phone is, more often than not, an audio clue to the owner's tastes and personality. And, as a quick look at Billboard's list of the Top 40 ringtones reveals, people also use their ringtones to express their sense of humor (what else could explain the download popularity of both the Spongebob Squarepants and Looney Tunes themes?). With two new humorous ringtones available fr*ee from The Billable Hour Company, lawyers can take advantage of this 30-second audio canvas to tell the world—or at least anyone within earshot—about themselves, without saying a word.

    It would be difficult to find a more appropriate ringtone to peal from an attorney's cell phone than "I'm Too Busy" by Bob Noone & the Well Hung Jury. The song, to the tune of Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy," informs listeners that the phone's owner is "too busy for your call, too busy for your call, no time at all"; don't even ask about the status of your fax or letter.

    back to school specials

    Although the "I'm too busy" ringtone doesn't include an explicit reference to the owner's profession (you'll have to listen to the sample on the company's website—or buy the Wingtips Optional CD—to hear how the song's protagonist will "sue your little tush in the courtroom"), the "My Lawyer's Back" ringtone leaves no doubt as to the owner's vocation.

    It's easy to get your free ringtones. Simply go to www.TheBillableHour.com/ringtones.php and click on the "Send my Myxertone" button for the ringtone you want. You'll be taken to the ringtone's page at MyxerTones.com, where you enter your cell phone number and click the "send it to my phone" link. Minutes after you choose the manufacturer and model of your phone and press "send," you'll receive a message with the ringtone attached, or with a link to the ringtone (depending on your phone model). Detailed instructions on how to download and set your ringtone—no matter what phone model or cell phone service provider you use—are easily accessible at the MyxerTones website.
