WHAT KIND OF HOUSE PHONE ARE YOU USING THAT YOU CAN PUT A CUSTOM RING ON IT? WE'RE IN THE MARKET FOR A NEW PHONE (ASSUMING THE WIFE DIDN'T BUY TODAY'S SELLOUT.WOOT) AND IT WOULD BE GOOD TO KNOW.

MY OLD CELL PHONE. IT'S SIGNIFICANTLY CHEAPER TO PAY FOR THREE CELL PHONES THAN TWO CELLS AND A LAND LINE. STILL HAVE A PHONE PLUGGED IN FOR 911, BUT THAT'S IT.

I SEE. WE ACTUALLY DIDN'T HAVE A "LAND LINE" EITHER UNTIL LAST MONTH WHEN WE GOT A VOIP-BASED SYSTEM FROM OUR CELL PROVIDER ($10/MONTH ADD ON TO CELL CONTRACT). IT DOES HANDLE 911 CALLS SINCE THE CELL PROVIDER HAS LISTED IN THEIR DATABASE THE PHYSICAL ADDRESS THE SYSTEM RESIDES AT. ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT IT DOESN'T WORK IF THE INTERNET GOES DOWN.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE A LAND LINE FOR JUST THAT REASON, SINCE OUR INTERNET DOES OCCASIONALLY GO DOWN.

CHECK WITH YOUR AREA, BUT IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ANY CONNECTED LINE (EVEN IF YOU DON'T PAY FOR SERVICE ON IT) CAN STILL DIAL 911. JUST A THOUGHT.

ALSO KNOWING YOUR EMERGENCY NUMBERS AND HAVING THEM IN YOUR CELL IS A GOOD THING.

WHEN THE REMNANTS OF HURRICANE IKE WENT THROUGH LAST FALL AND PEOPLE WERE WITHOUT ELECTRIC FOR DAYS AND DAYS, OUR LAND LINE STILL WORKED. PEOPLE WITH JUST CELL AND CORDLESS PHONES WERE SOL.

USUALLY IF WE LOSE POWER OUR CELL KEEPS WORKING FOR A FEW HOURS. OF COURSE I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HURRICANES OR TORNADOS AND IF WE HAVE A VOLCANIC ERUPTION, WELL I DON'T THINK MUCH OF ANYTHING WILL SURVIVE.

I KEEP A LANDLINE FOR EMERGENCIES...AND BECAUSE MY SECURITY SYSTEM NEEDS ONE. I ALSO DON'T TRUST CELL PHONES COMPLETELY.

HOW IS IT THAT THE GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS IN THE WORLD THAT CAUSE THE BULK OF THE UNREST IN THE WORLD ARE ALSO THE SAME PEOPLE THAT ARE SAVED FIRST IN EVENT OF A WAR OR OTHER CATACLYSM?

ASIDE FROM JOHN CUSACK, THAT IS.
