Power Outage

At approximately 4:30, my department at work heard about it. At 4:31 three of my co-workers assumed it was a terrorist attack. My response? "Well then this is a lame attack. Do they think they'll crush us by taking away our central air?"

As I'm driving home, the DJ has to mention that "so far" there is no evidence of a terrorist attack.

Now at home, Ted Koppel has reminded the audiance about a dozen times that this is not a terrorist attack - don't panic. Maybe if you stop bringing it up every three minutes people will.

I'm not stupid, I know we could be attacked again any day. But let's think about it. It's hot. People are using a lot of power to try to keep cool. The power grid is old. Sometimes shit just happens.

End of rant, I shall go watch Buffy now. :)
