3 edits | When we get storms here I use to just unplug the phone line and also the power cord. I don't use dialup at all anymore so I don't have to do phone cord. Also it's a good idea to just unplug everything completely including any broadband modems, routers, and possibly any audio systems that plug into your sound card although I don't know about the latter. |

I know i had to ask the same question & some GOOD FRIENDS here & other sites help me figure "some of it out", i was thinking that a joule was the "thing a ma jug" that connects to the "whats ya ma calls its" to make the "do dobber" go king klang,bing bong
but seriously Vamp,TwistedLefty,novaflare, THANK YOU for the help & information[/b] & i agree when someone is asking a questions or anytime personal attack aren't warranted.
a person ask questions to LEARN,& to learn one must ask questions. jazzy
p.S.novaflare,if a direct hit,won't have to worry about the computer,I'll be dead from the explosion of the oxygen tank bottles,

THEN YOUR PROBALLY NEVER GOING TO SEE THE BEAUTY IN LIFE OR BEST IN PEOPLE
