Strange news from Maine

As you know, I like 1) cellphones; 2) blind people; 3) Maine; and 4) lawyers.  AP reports:

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - The chief executive officer of Maine's Iris Network faces criminal charges after flying into a rage over his daughter’s $5,000 cell phone bill.

James Phipps, 50, grabbed his 20-year-old daughter and repeatedly spanked her in a dispute over the cell phone bill and her boyfriend, the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Department said....

Phipps, a Portland lawyer, is blind.

How do you get a $5,000 phone bill?
