In addition, if you do not wash them separate of colored clothes you will never keep them white because the small amounts of dye continue to leech out of the fabric for the...

    Can we have a MANs forum???

    I can't believe you guys would like a forum where you could moan and groan about your other half.

    Bad Bad Laundry Day

    If I am not mistaken you should be able to pull the SIM card out of your wet phone and install it in any other phone and you will have your phone service. I don't think the water would have affected the SIM card. This is the reason I always carry one of my old phones with me. Hope this helps.
