Dear VJ members,

i can't tell you how many times that happened to me!! and it IS SOOOOOOO frustrating!! but never give up...lol....whenever that happened, i just kept callling back--and eventually you get through...

just be patient, and keep redialing...eventually you'll get the operator....if you're too impatient...try calling early in the morning, or right before midnight on fridays...you'll get the operator in less than a minute..

good luck!!! :thumbs:

::There’s a laugh in my eyes::

There’s a waltz in my walk

And it’s been such a long time

Since there was hope in my talk

If you never knew

What it is that’s new.. it’s you

‘Cause when your hands are in mine

You set a fire that everyone can see

And it’s burning away

Every bad memory

To tell you the truth

If it’s something new.. baby it’s you

It’s you in the morning

It’s you in the night

A beautiful angel came down

To light up my life

The world’s a different place

Where nothing’s too hard to say

And nothing’s too hard to do

Never too much to go through

To tell you the truth

Everything that’s new.. baby it’s you

It’s you in the morning

It’s you in the night

A beautiful angel came down

To light up my life

My life, my life

Ohh

So if I get to grow old (oh if I get to grow old)

With many years behind me (many years behind me)

There’s only one thing I want (aahh)

One thing I need beside me

For all that you are

For everything you do

For all that you’ve done

Just for showing me the truth

::It’s you...It’s you...Baby it’s you::

If you call during the day, it'll be close to impossible to get through. But if you call as soon as they open in the morning or right before they close, around 11:30pm EST, you'll get through easily. The night people seem to be nicer for some reason.
