The faucets in my bathroon have turned into a bunch if hissing snakes!

Why can't I delete posts this morning?

ANYHOW... It's been cold here, but certainly an improvement over the below zero temps we'd experienced a few weeks back. During the cold snap, I left all the faucets trickling with nary a problem. However, as a Westerner well aware of the drought inflicted water shortage out here, I shut off the dripping faucets once it bgan to warm up. Well, this morning I went to brush my teeth, and the cold water faucet began to hiss loudly in protest when I turned it on, but water did come out of it.

I tried the water faucets in the bath tub with no problems. The cold water tap contunes to hiss menacingly no matter what I try. I hate to call my landlord on New Year's when he's probably sitting around with a cold one watching his fav football team. Is there any sort of (simple) fix that I could do myself? Also, do broken water pipes hiss like a pit full of vipers?
