Apparently 911 is actually a joke in this town. Hmm. Flava was a prophet.
OMG. How will I be able to report that they gave me spicy nuggets instead of regular at
the drive through?
this news made it on CNN.
Chinese or Ruskie hackers.
Hope this ends soon. Praying no one has to call.

AT&T you say, well the best way to fix the problem if AT&T is involved is to go ahead and accept the rate increase.
Calling 9-1-1 in Jackson is a roll of the dice. Sometimes they answer and oftentimes they don't.
Don't worry. It's not like jackson is the murder capitol or anything.
Pray for the best but prepare for the worst. Keep your powder dry.
AT&T was part of this ?
That explains everything.
3:43, The best way to fix a problem with AT&T is to switch to another service provider.
And just like that Jackson's crime dropped to zero.
