It happened early in Alex Pierson's show Monday night, just seconds after she went on the air over GNR640. In mid word, she disappeared, forcing the operator back at Corus Quay to air some generic "we're having technical problems" music. 

About 30 secs. later, she returned, loudly proclaiming, "I'm here! I'm here!"

So what happened?

It turns out her very young son came into the room she was working in, unplugged her computer and put in one of his own. And **Blink** Mommy was gone! She came back on to explain that he said he "needed the outlet," and pulled the first plug he saw. It just happened to be the one that connected her to the station and from there to several other broadcasters across the network. 

I wonder if someone's going to bed without his supper tonight!
