Hope everyone made it home OK.:D

I was a lucky one. Time was on my side today. I left work earlier than i was supposed to. I was in the elevator, and the lights were fading in and out. Then i get out and about 15-20 seconds later, darkness (was in a parking garage).
The elevator door's had just closed behind me. Little did i know that it was a massive black out.
Then i start driving home, and notice the streetlights were out. Then the traffic just got thicker, and thicker....
After hours in traffic, i got home and heard on the radio that nearly the entire northeast had no power.
To think that only a few seconds longer i would have still been in the elevator.
Scary!
 
I suppose it would be really hard for anyone affected by the blackout to read this.:p

I was near the lightswitch:D

funny stuff.

i was at HOME, watching that s*** on TV, with my LIGHTS ON, drinking a COLD beer, not WALKING anywhere!!!
(rofl)
 
I am so happy I wasn't at work today. I work at FOX news and NYC is the main studios and production. They lose power we have to take over-which we can just barely do. I had to be CRAZY there, granted not as bad as being in NYC though.

I think he was just saying that's where he was. I was at work watching it on TV, and then OUR lights when off. So I drove home with no traffic lights, then BAKED in my hot ass 2nd floor apartment.
