You mean to tell me all those cock-eyed ceiling fans spread out all over God’s Blessed Texas are useless as mammary glands on a bull? Damn, they destroy the scenery and everything. What the hell were you idiots that put them up thinking?

Everybody with the brains God gave a goose pretty well knew this would happen. Now what’s it going to be like with a cold winter? It’s about time someone went to D.C. & started thumping heads. There was a time something could have been done about it & it rather looks like that ship has sailed. Now how long will it be before most states are facing this crisis? The time that America needed a real president (and an energy secretary) has come & gone & we still are waiting to even have the election. I don’t know what lead time is for a conventional power plant, but somebody better get busy in a hurry. I know that nuclear plants are probably better, but I suppose lead time is even longer. We used to have a city power plant here & now we have a host of solar arrays probably largely destroyed by the last hail storm. They may get them repaired in time to be largely ineffective. Is there a message here about our power grid? There sure seems to be. With a possible hard winter coming up in some areas & more EVs being pushed all the time, we could be in a real spot. The U.S. used to be the bright spot on a world map showing the lighting, but will this still be true?
