THE MISSING LINK
Cell phones adding soundtrack to our lies

How many times have you grasped for an excuse to get out of something? Maybe you've "little white lied" to your mother-in-law about another call or told your boss that you're getting an emergency root canal and can't make the meeting. A firm in Germany can give your mendacity some veracity thanks to its "sound alibi generator." You can download nine sounds from the generator to your cell phone, including a traffic jam, roadwork, a circus parade, a dentist's drill and the ring of another phone. Call the boss, tell the fib, play the sound and voila -- your weekend just got longer.
