Just to irritate you, it was 101 at my place and my neighborhood is on a NEVER GETS SHUT OFF area. It's either because we are near a hospital or because we are near the mall. I noticed that the local big mall is also in the same section.

I don't recall insulting anyone yet.

1) you absolutely did not like it that I found that joke funny. 2) You just had to ping someone else to "come see what this guy said!" to justify your "feelings". 3) I just said it was funny, you stated that it was "my" joke.

That was PC insulting enough for me.

Developing news

Power officials say rolling blackouts have left about 500,000 Southern California Edison customers without electricity. The power emergency is expected to last about an hour. More details to come.

even the Seattle Times has it

Are there electrical storms going on out there? Lightning can cause power serges.

That was a joke.

SDG&G customers can check their area for what order they would be blacked out if rolling-backouts are needed in San Diego. Rotating Electric Outages
