no germs here

NO GERMS HERE
theres not germs here on my smartphone and now
not on my computer

i  read an article from kim komando on how to clean
your gadgets

i had a patient who worked on laptops and desktop computers
he told me he used alcohol pads to clean his with after he
worked on them
the alcohol worked well since it evaporated so fast
others claim dont use that stuff at all

ive tried that several times and it works ok but my smartphone
now thats a different story

im quite rough on my smartphone
i guess i need one of those new caterpillar ones
tonka truck tough

i got a case to put mine in to protect it
my phone has a keyboard that slides out
so that i dont have to deal with not being able to type what
i want
you know what im talking about
sometimes i look at what i typed and its all gobbly goop
but not with this slide out phone

the problem is that the cover cant encase the whole phone
so stuff gets in there
heck i found a tomato growing between the keyboard once
since all that compost i was putting out got down between
the keys

when i took my cover off last time after reading the komando.com
article i really had a large amount of buildup in there
but it smelled good since it smelled like compost

she says
unplug it and remove the battery
guess you dont want to get shocked
use a microfiber cloth to clean the screen with
whats a microfiber
dont use a paper towel
too late on that one

dampen the microfiber if needed
dont dampen the screen
we arent stupid well maybe
use distilled water well i used rainwater
same thing

you can use the microfiber on the body of the phone
if you figure out what a microfiber is
or
use cotton swabs you know like you clean your ear out with
and stick it too far in the ear
dont stick it too far in your phone though

those qtips swabs worked well getting all that compost
out from the crevices and between the keys
my phone almost shined when i got through

i admit i couldnt figure out what a microfiber was so i
just used an alcohol swab on my phone

now its clean as can be and all those germs are gone
not that i ever really worried about them
heck ive been tempted to eat that compost it smells so good
sometimes

we do keep things too clean nowadays
heck i read where farm kids are healthier than city kids
since they get exposed to more allergens and germs

so my smartphone should grow up to be even smarter
if thats true and should last longer
