The power runs thru a UPS. Not the phone line. It does suck!

Subject: Re: [TriLUG] How was your week?
I have to say: the google ads while I was reading your email were
quite entertaining.
I think I owe you a beer (or similar) for laughing at your expense.
You'll find me up front at the meeting if you can make it.
So, to answer your question, my week was pretty good. Better than
yours, luckily. Joking aside, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. That
really sucks.

P.S.
<plug class="shameless">I know where you can get a good 1400AV UPS (or
two) if you need one (or two, or other replacement hardware).</plug>

Two weks ago I had a lightning strike. Lightning hit the TV antenna, came
down the pole, blew the cover to a breaker box into the yard. Then it
jumped
to the telephone protector and blew out the DSL modem. Then it hit both
computers and took out both built into the motherboard nic cards, video
cards, KVM switch and the keyboard! Then it took out a Ham Radio and an
antenna tuner. It also hit both satelite receivers in the house. It hit
my
Ham Repeater. took out the link radio and controller.
So how was your week?
