'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
OK, traffic will be a bitch and I'm sure it freaked a lot of people out (and probably caused some injuries) but
Lee Sapaden, a spokesman for the county Office of Emergency Management, said the massive power failure was caused after an employee "inadvertenly cut a power cable" at a DWP substation in West Los Angeles.
excuse me while I go wipe the tears from my eyes.
So ....classic.
Some days I'm surprised we as a species make it out of bed without maiming ourselves.
Some of us don't.
"inadvertenly cut a power cable" at a DWP substation in West Los Angeles.
Yeah, I heard that on the radio.
So, just so everyobdy knows, especially any terrorists -- cutting one wire brings it all down! And that wire is in the West LA substation.
Well, we already knew that a dude with a backhoe on the Eastern seaboard can take out half the Internet...

See, this is why backhoes should be banned. And don't give me any of that "if backhoes are banned, only construction workers will have backhoes." I don't care. Darn things are a menace.

I guess we can have gophers digs that hole for your pool instead.
Or use hand grenades.

That's the problem with our current airport security array. You can't get a simple, harmless switchblade through security without a body cavity search, but put a backhoe through the X-ray machine and no one bats an eye.
Ho. Lee. Cow.
The president stopped to talk to the pool outside a one story school being repaired, just after 2 pm CDT. He made no news at the 28th Street Elementary School. Asked about Mike Brown resigning, he said he hadn't spoken to Chertoff or Brown, but will be on AF One.
"Maybe you know something I don't know," he said of Brown.
I don't know who is running the country, but I can safely say who isn't.
Kinkos is making me very angry.
No matter how many times you ask me when I plan to pick up the order, the answer will always be: "I live in Los Angeles, you are in New York. I am not flying to fucking New York to pick up this order. You are delivering this order to my agent, per the work order I sent."
Now I have to spend another day biting my nails.
The lady seems to think that Los Angeles is like, a neighborhood in Brooklyn or some shit.
I mean, Los Angeles is sort of one of those common knowledge places, right? We all know it's as far away to the left of New York on the map before you hit the ocean, right?
I hate you, Kinko's lady.
