At times like these I'm glad to live well off the coast.

Yeah, the Ohio Valley region doesn't do a very good job of dealing with windstorms.  TRUST ME ON THIS ONE. :bleeding:

Hurricane Ike remnants.  :glare:

I guess the only thing you have to deal with is the occasional ice storm, right? :sleep:

So far, only 66K people without power in the BGE service area.  Pretty good, considering some of the rest of the Least Coast.

Shit just got serious here.  The Internet went out for a couple of minutes, both by cable and by 4G.  My sister reported the same thing.  Thankfully it's better now.

I can't handle to lose the Interwebs.  Fortunately my back is killing me so I'll just atke a bunch of muscle relaxants and go to bed.
PDH!

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
