Electricity and BEES = Power outage in NJ?

Actually bees have like. Nothing to do with it, but. >.>

Just a small head's up; If you've been watching the news or the weather channel, you probably know that several atlantic states got walloped by bad storms and high winds that cut power, out here. I live in NJ fairly near to Atlantic City, and we've been without electric for about three days or so. Generally speaking, estimates on everything getting up and restored are between two days and a full week, so my internet access is extremely spotty. :(

This would, of course, happen right after WRAnet relaunches and I'm trying to get a new theme up for our website. FFFF. Silly nature, doesn't she realize I'm a nerd and I require my wacom tablet for li--

W-what's this, you say? Why, you have bristol board and primsacolors and used to draw WITHOUT ELECTRONICS?

DAMN YOU, LOGIC.

IE: Sorry for the BBL. :( Have a safe and happy 4th if I don't see you!

(... All the poor, poor tourists)

Edit: ALSO 100 DEGREE WEATHER WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING MAKES MANY KITTENS CRY.

Nature doesn't care for your electronics. Human error also doesn't care, like when all of San Diego county, part of Mexico and Arizona lost power for 11 or so hours because someone decided the backup line should be attached to the main. A friend of mine just got it back yesterday, at the same time though their AC is dead, completely dead.

Ever onward.
