hehehe...I hear ya!

They must have a generator to power the emergency lighting at least. Oh! He mentioned they had ~one~ elevator working.

*rolls eyes*

I'd be so outta there. Although his description of the lobby being lit by a hundred candles did sound romantic.

<snort>It's romantic only if you can share it with someone you love ... otherwise, "romantic" is usually a PITA.

FReepmail for you!

Hey there... I got online after all... :-)

Still no power. But I'm getting dial tone for a modem connection. Have to use our 800 number to get a long distance trunk. Seems all the local trunks are fast-busy (no wonder why... everybody's probly doing the same thing).

Got hot water, and the plumbing seems to work. So there's that.

Got a flashlight and some extra batteries.

Soo... it ain't so bad. :-)

Yah, they must have a generator, for some limited lighting, the one elevator, and apparently the plumbing pressure and hot water. Just no lighting in the rooms or TV's, or networking.

...and apparently no power to the reefers for the kegs. They're giving away free beer while its still cold.

Could be worse. :-)

Only got one though. Not feeling the best today. Darn... free beer night, and I don't feel like it. Is there no justice in the world? :-)
