Big power outage today around the 1 o'clock hour Pacific time.... could cause some issues regarding your email or websites you visit. Such as, my email no longer connects ... my website is down ... etc. etc.. Yet, I'm o.k. to cruise the 'net, thus Comcast in my area is unaffected...
So, if you are having some odd things happen 'net & e-mail related this may be the cause... or not! ;-) Long days & pleasant nights...
Jeez! I wish the president would go back to work!
The country is falling apart.
No small task keeping everything working right, even for a SUPERHUMAN!
ROFL .... ! yeah, that'll make a difference! Too funny there oldhermit!
Things we would like to hear
from Howard Dean:
"The president is right!"
from John Kerry:
"If I were president, Katrina would have never happened!"
from Hillary:
"I am a liberal extremist!"
from Dubya:
"Illegal Immigration has got to stop!"
from Cheney:
"Frankly, I don't give a DAMN!"
from Nagin:
"What plan?"
From Blanco:
"Who is Nagin?"
speaking of power outage, was in beverly hills on olympic blvd for those that know the area. Power was on but all stop lights where green :( i didn't learn anything about this in driving school
Sounds like too much fun there ... everybody GO!
that is amazing I thought stop lights were always red and go lights always green and the middle light always amber.Quote:

Hey Nix, how goes? New avatar I see.... cool. You have to understand... in Beverly Hills it's green=cruise... amber=give it the gas... red=hit the nitrous button!!!
STOP
Spin Tires On Proceeding
CONGRATULATIONS ylen13!!!
You lived to tell us about it.
No small accomplishment!
I can remember one particularly confusing 6-way intersection near there that I had to drive thru while still on my learners permit. Judging from the screams from my passengers, I probably did something wrong, but still have no clue as to what???
Never went that way again...
yes all traffic lights showed green,never seen anything like that.Quote:

No doubt.
At that time LA still had street-cars with tracks running down and criss-crossing the driving lanes, adding to the confusion.
It's really a whole new city since then.
Except for the traffic...

Got pretty familiar with that phrase during an LA (Lower Alabama) power outage, reading Stephen King by lanterns and candles is way past creepy.Quote:

Add in howling winds and driving rains (hurricanes Ivan, Dennis and Katrina) and you have goosebumps that have goosebumps.
