Mother Knows Best

A mother summoned her kids, all three:

“Now, listen to me -carefully;

Your cellular phones, will have to go!

THEY CAUSE CANCER, don't you know?

Numerous studies have recently shown,

RF waves come through a phone!

Now give them here, without delay;

You'll be thanking me for this, one day."

Silly kids, to get so upset!

She frowned, as she lit a cigarette.

She pushed her pram and lit a fag,
Her skin wrinkled and her cheeks did sag.
Baby's lungs filled up with smoke,
Coughing and spluttering ready to choke.
Her phone rang and gave her a start,
As to the cigarette counter she did dart.
She ignored the ring and switched it off,
Baby in pram continued to cough.
Twenty cigarettes she did buy,
Baby in pram continued to cry

What about Apple? Surely they're not malignant? Are Blackberry's still available ? Ain't heard no cancer deaths from these. Possibility?
Hey Don. Peaches-n-Cream's a new brand in town. Cancer-proof written in 1mth guarantee. Sheesh. Don't make 'em to last these days. Obvious Chinese shit. Oh? Why not? Colour don't suit. Further suggestions needed......

Nokia phones are particularly bad I hear. Gonna have to trade mine in for a non-malignant type. Any suggestions?........
