:confused:

Am I missing something here?

Sandwich place next to bar. Lunchtime. Big power failure. Apparently people just gave up on work and decided to go a'drinkin' ! :cool:

though we had power... our computer network went blank abruptly and was still down 6 hours later when i finally got to leave. our network is tied to Burbank. no word if we will be back up tomorrow.

too bad management refused to turn off the phones:rolleyes:

My parents didn't lose power, either at home in West Hills or at work in North Hills (neither of which is on a hill).

So, did we have an earthquake?

I can report nothing was felt in Chicago - and the lights stayed on. However, after I left work, I did go drinking...

Power wasn't affected at USH today...

Well, this DID happent the day after a video was released of an Al Qaida connected American made unspecified threats against Los Angeles, so it's not like quelling terrorims fears came completely out of the blue.

And are we sure someone didn't just plug an electric forklift in the wrong way?

Personally, I think the tape was made by Karl Rove, who then engineered the black out to take the minds of Californians off of the hurricane. After all, blowing up the levees in Louisiana to take the attention off of Roberts, a clear threat to our freedoms, clearly backfired after the slow response of FEMA.

(I guess carville did more damage to me than I thought.....)
