Last week the computer shut down. I thought, Now what is the matter with my computer?
I finally turned it off. Went outside and worked. Came back in turned the news on. Nothing much on the local news channel. The phone finally rang. It was my friend her husband works at the Nugget. Seems all the ATM'S were out. Computers were down. This meant cash registers were down. Stores were closing their doors as they could not ring up purchases.
Then I receved a call from an EMT, they could not receive any 911 calls. Their equipment was down. No cell phones were working. Nothing was on the local news. Still a mystery as to why anything that had to be transmitted over the phone wires was down.
