What else can go wrong?

So the voice mail system went kaput! already this morning. There’s nothing quite like looking over at your phone and seeing the red light next to the voice mail button on solid red when you don’t have the phone off the hook.

Take a trip to the wiring closet, verify that everything is, indeed, plugged in, and reset the whole darned system. Couple of minutes later, we’re back in business. Still, I’m worried about why it just crashed like that…

    Has anybody else using Windows Live Writer to post to their blog noticed occasional slowdowns?
