Hey all you Northeasterners!
Ooopps......can't see this can ya? 
neener, neener, neener
I say we talk about them while they can't see us. ;D
Just kidding.
I work in the power transmission industry and from the reports we're getting is "Don't set your alarm for work tomorrow morning. It ain't gonna work, the subway won't be going anywhere and if you can get to work the elevator won't be working"
It's going to be a long, dark weekend on Broadway.

lol Bob, they're going to beat you up when they get back. They better have the power back on in Detroit by Saturday. I'm not sitting on a 9 hour flight so I can stay in a hotel with no electricity. This is not a "camping" trip.

juvy.......just in case take a camp stove with you. 
Luckly that part of the country has a lot of hydro power generation and those generators can get back "on line" quickly. Those generators will then be used to provide startup power for the fossel fuel generators. But, the fossel fueled plants will take a minimum of 24 hours to get "on line". Then the transmission systems must be re-energized to the sub-transmission systems. Then the sub-transmission sytems can be used to pick up the distribution systems and then the customers can turn on the lights in the hotel in Detroit.
Simple huh?

Bahahahaha! It's a friggin Black Out! What do want them to do, yelllout the window or communicate telepathically?! If it was a hurricane or an earthquake I would echo the concerns... But hell, all they are doing is moving their sofas out on the sidewalks and firing up the BBQ, drinking coronas WITHOUT the lime! Especially in the Bronx and Brooklyn! In fact, the locals spies have found Peppermint hitchhiking on the 59th street bridge! with a Schlitz Malt Liquor in her hand!

Having lived through ice storm 98 where the power went out and suddenly there was no water, no gas for generators or vehicles, no money, no grocery stores that had milk or fresh stuff, no heat, etc etc., I know the folks that live in upstate get a little nervous when there's a black out of unknown origin and unknown duration.
You can make fun of my concern if ya want, I know it's a little on the silly side, but I know the concern when suddenly you are without power, and you learn the hard way just how much of your life relies on power. I know I am still nervous about the power being out and my grandmother being out in the country by herself without means of getting help should her medical conditions require it.
Just want to know that the folks I know in the affected areas are ok. See what I get for not whining enough? I gotta take slack for showing concern Need to whine more I guess LOL.

After witnessing your energetic self at the convention, rumour had it that you must be tapping into some unseen energy force. Little did we all know, you were the energy force. Need proof? 'Cat leaves NY and power blackout soon follows... details at 10'. Sheesh Cat, what did you do, take all the energy and leave? LOL.
anyway, no problems here.

Surely you jest. In blackouts, Upstaters all get together and mow each other's lawns, eat all the perch from the freezer before it goes bad, pool our hooch supplies, cool off by sitting in the SUV with the AC, and top off the day playing croquet by Coleman Lantern. It's a whirlwind existence.
1965 was the most fun because Mom and Dad were in Bermuda at a brake lining convention (True) and I had the refreshments to myself. The power came back on in ten minutes for us and I watched Walter Cronkite do the news by lantern. (also true) No doubt for effect. It's also true that I was alone. A sadder state of affairs, there never was. Nothing changes.......sigh.
Jamestown was off for about 6 hours tonight and Walmart ran out of D cells. I had coffee at Wendy's with my preacher neighbor. Everyone here was fine.
