Then there is this great catch by Grey Whiskers of feds masquerading as us.

So our power just went out - no storm, no nothing. Drove to the end of the road & don’t see any trees down or issues with the power line - according to the outage map, it’s the same 117 on our road with no power as we usually get with an outage. No AC - at least it’s cloudy. I have the generator running so we do have lights, well, cable (for dad - he has a hard time with no cable). Crew dispatched, but power restoration estimate 3-6 pm. I’ve cut the breakers & maybe we’ll get lucky & the fan/AC will start when I cut them back on (that’s how the tech got it started last week - cut it off & let it “rest”). Sigh. It’s a reminder that if we ever get an EMP or whatever that takes out the electric grid for any extended length of time, it’s going to be survival of the most prepared (& well-armed, frankly).
