Maybe they should have called me instead

My dear wife got the phone call from the heating folks today at work. Her cell phone number was first in the list when we gave them the options to reach us today. See, our heat went out Saturday night, and they were in this morning to fix it. Apparently, Bob wanted to let us know it was taken care of, and called Angela’s cell phone. She was the lucky one who got to hear about the black bird that flew in to the heater, got caught in a wheel and died. She also got to hear about how the bird “stayed intact, unlike the squirrels, which usually get torn apart”.

I’m sure it was quite the conversation! 🙂

Should be interesting to compare the two I would think, although I think I’ll stick with PocketPc 2002 for my Xmas…

  • On the other hand..

    Turns out the network cable wasn’t unplugged, but somehow, someway the data-port just went dead on us. Has this ever happened to you? I’m thinking some sort of electrical short or something from the desk hitting it, but that seems somewhat far-fetched. Especially considering the telephone jack still works fine! I’m not an electrician, so…
