Title: so I was eating my pizza
Post by: Zovistograt on December 11, 2007, 04:04:32 PM
when the power went out very suddenly.  Then I spilled my root beer and finished my pizza and lighted a candle and was replacing some batteries when the power went on, followed soon after by the cable/phone/Internet.  Yay.

When was the last time you had a power outage?

This story made me laugh hysterically for some reason >_<

Also, I've been on Nsider making an extensive post many a-time when the power has went out.


One was a really spammy post, which miraculously got through RIGHT BEFORE THE POWER WENT OUT.

So I was banned -_-

I had one just last night. It was a quick one, less than 5 seconds, but we had to restart a few things.

We've had 2-3 this winter so far. Either lots of wind and rain or heavy snow. And when mixed all that extra weight and water really can damage buildings and power lines.

But I live by the ocean so its sort of expected to get that type of weather now and then. :P
