Stephen Fry is Stuck in an Elevator…
… and it’s cracking me up. I started following Stephen Fry on Twitter about a week ago. I knew he was a twitterer, but I saw a video on BBC News that I enjoyed and decided to see what kind of twitterer he was. A few minutes ago, he twittered that he was stuck in an elevator. Now all 107,000 of his followers know that he’s stuck, and yet he still has to wait 20 minutes for the engineer to come and get them out. Here he is:
A few minutes after posting that, he posted this:
With the tweet: “No shit, Sherlock!”
I’m now watching the hundreds of tweets pile up responding to this amusing situation. His most recent post is this:
Your brilliant comments are keeping us all (hysterically) cheerful. Last a heard engineers still on their way
I have a feeling he’s just converted the whole elevator full of people into Twitter users!!

I got stuck in an elevator once. It wasn’t so much fun. It was before cell phones and I was all alone for 30 minutes. I kept wondering what to do if the elevator fell, and I wasn’t sure which floors I had stopped between and had no idea how far I’d fall.
