I finally dropped my POTS a couple years ago. It was so squirrel chewed that if it rained 1/10 of an inch it was practically useless. Called Ma Bell a few times and they would come out and say they fixed it, until it rained again.

I have not had any candidates call my cell phone, but the heavy card stock mailers are getting irritating. I voted early, mostly because I’m friends with the county clerk and she has 4 challengers, but I also wanted to give Patterson my vote.

Well if you want the security without the hassle:
1. don't turn the voicemail for the landline on.
2. tun the ringer off.

That way any calls made by you will be outbound calls. :thumbs2:

I'm not picking them up. The same campaign workers that put the signs up should be out there taking them down.

I agree that the eyesores need to be removed pronto.
