Everything is as calm as usual!

I knew this was going to be another Y2k.

Happy uneventful August 22nd.

Edit: Wait, what's that mushroom cloud on the horizon?

I actually have a story to go along with this.  I was at work today around 1pm, when there were two large booms outside.  I mean very loud.  Much like I would imagine a bomb would sound.  My first thought was "Aw shit."  The pucker factor was high.  I walked briskly to the front of the building only to find that two transformers had blown due to some dumbass hitting a powerline at the construction site next door.  All was well again.  I went home for the rest of the day due to lack of electricity and phones.

The scary thing is you are probably right.  

They may even relish the taste of certain MREs *shudder*

About 0800 I lost power at the homefront. Had to kick on the generator! I thought this was it! ..I called the electric company and they said some dumbass hit a pole. (Why does it always have to be a pole and never a Bulgarian or something?)

ba-dum-bum...

I don't wanna come out. The bomb shelter is dark and cosy and the tinfoil makes me feel all sparkly.

I'm staying in here until at least October 17th.
