WON'T YOU TAKE ME TO FUNKY TEHRAN TOWN

BANZAI7 BUREAU--Cell phone service appears to have been cut in Iran's capital after a disputed election that the government said President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad won.

There was no immediate comment from Iran's Telecommunications Ministry. But when users tried to call cell phones, a message appeared on their phones saying "error in connection."

Tech savy protesters have adopted a method of using disconnected mobile phones for clandestine communications. Seemingly spontaneous protests have broken out whenever a familiar funky code tune is heard.



Moments later....



In a related development, Supreme Leader Aya-Toll-Free Khamenei announced a hotline number that Tehran citizens are encouraged to call to report election fraud and police brutality: Simply dial 1-800-MOTHER-OF-ALL-TWEETERS and wait for the authorities to arrive.

MOTHER OF ALL TWEETERS

Heres one for the people of Tehran...
