Cell phone in toilet (on commuter train!) makes it flush hour
http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/132543p-118169c.html

A man riding a Metro-North train dropped his cell phone in a toilet and got his arm stuck trying to retrieve it Thursday, forcing the train to stop and delaying the evening commute for thousands of people.

Edwin Gallart, 41, of the Bronx, was stuck with his arm in the toilet for 90 minutes, The Advocate of Stamford reported in Friday’s editions....

As the train continued north on the Harlem Line, the trainmaster tried to remove Gallart’s arm from the stainless steel commode, Brucker said....

Gallart’s arm was removed
(from the toilet, not amputated -Ed.) and he was treated and released from a Fordham-area hospital, Brucker said. His cell phone wasn’t retrieved.

How about that! A Bronx Bozo who wasn't wearing pinstripes!! :-)

4. Nasty, here's the real question...
What the Fuck was he doing using a Metro-North train bathroom! Those things are disgusting and if you're chugging along at about 70mph in Conn, it's a test to try to take a piss.
