water is not flowing into my house! I have an artisian well and water just stopped?

I feel like there are only a couple of reasons why this could happen, but how do I narrow it down? Is it the pump? I am assuming that the pump was put in place in 1997. Or did I just run out of water?

Update:

wow and they call Jon a top contributor huh? nice.

To the first contributor, or anyone else....if the pump needs to be primed, can I do that myself? If so, How?
