20 minute ride, versus the usual 30-35.

Ah damn, it sucked huge guys
I just got back online now about 28 hrs after the fact.
With no electricity you pretty much have no entertainment, then we got rain and because the pumping stations had no power the roads flooded, not to mention how humid it is this weekend. You couldn't even pump gas damn it! Well we still have 700,000 people in our area w/o power tonight and boy do I feel bad for them. Tomorrow I'm hoping most of the food products in the refrigerator are okay.

You should have seen the lines for gas... it was common to see lines in excess of 60 cars just waiting for gas.

Oh well, all in all most things came out good. I didn't hear of many bad things occuring with this power out. Things could have been much worse.
