I started looking into fixing the front doorbell last night.  Sadly, it looks like it is the transformer and I have no idea where the previous owner placed the transformer.  I will need to find this when I get more time.
I published five articles on writing on Hubpages the other day.  My unique views more than doubled for a day.  And then plummeted down to just above where they were before that.  I do hate that most of my articles have to mature a month or so before getting better links.  The series starts with Hubber Advice: Keywords and Competition.  Read it and let me know what you think, I would greatly appreciate it.
