    The question is of course [The Lounge] If your dog eats your SIM card... (will it get dissolved before it comes out?)[^] As it turns out, a SIM card can pass through your canine companion without being damaged. After patiently checking the output from your furry friend for a few days before finally locating it like a prize in a box of cereal, taking the SIM card through a rigorous cleaning process and then popping it back in the phone will restore full functionality to your phone. This does raise a new question: How long does it take before you can look back at this and laugh about it?

    Ahem...I believe I am due proper credit for answering this question correctly before the results came in (or in this case, out): my answer in The Lounge[^] I'm expecting my official no-prize to be delivered via drone at any moment. :laugh:

      You are correct (again). I will mix up a fresh batch of homemade chocolate and ship it to you - it doesn't quite smell like chocolate since I am still learning, but it's good. Believe me. :-\

                    I take it that they didn't use [an old 1990's SIM card](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Upxl4gESRKA/T2uDkYrQP5I/AAAAAAAAAU8/QKqkZLK5rSA/s1600/PK5\_7072-klein.jpg)? :laugh:

                    Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

                            I have that shirt as well. When you said "the wife's sim card", it all became very clear. Does she know the extent to which you have gone to recover the sim card? Now, it could be that you have these kinds of dogs: Chihuahua[^] in whihc case not too impressive. In the other hand, you might have two of these:Newfoundland[^] in which case, I salute you sir. I hope she was worth the effort. :)

                                    Well, I didn't know for sure, but with about 95% confidence. 1) One of them is quite picky about what he eats and will spit stuff out if he doesn't like it. The other one will eat anything you put in front of him. 2) The next morning I found signs that one of them had been vomiting during the night, which is a sure sign that he ate something that he wanted to get out again. A quick smell test around the mouth of both dogs pointed to the usual suspect.

                                        I take it that they didn't use [an old 1990's SIM card](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Upxl4gESRKA/T2uDkYrQP5I/AAAAAAAAAU8/QKqkZLK5rSA/s1600/PK5\_7072-klein.jpg)? :laugh:

                                        Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

                                        Dude! That is a big SIM card. It looks like the phone was designed around the SIM card :omg:
