My wipers quit???

Hey guys, I seem to be having a stretch of problems with my truck. First all of my brakes, then my starter, then my alt. and now my wipers have quit!
Not only that, the washer pump has quit too, both without any warning and at the exact same time?

Does anyone have any idea as to why or how this could happen?

Thanks guys.

thanks Matt, I did check fuse 33 and 106 the wiper fuses but both were fine.
How do you mean it was the switch on the column?

My wipers quite due to my GEM getting wet from a leaking windsheild. Thats another thing to check. I was able to get them to work after being dry for a day or so, but if it sat in the rain it they would not work. Also i had intermittant issues with :CC, speedo, abs, air bags, and some other stuff too.
