I found it rather humerous,only because I was stuck at home, and spent all night trying to get a generator going. We did get it going before power came back though, which beat my estimates .

We actually had power going from one generator in my driveway across the street and down a couple of houses, as well as into my house. Only to power three frigdes, but it was worth it.

Oh, and by the way. If you ever have a clogged fuel line, don't put a rubber hose with a larger ID in the line, cause after a few hours of crazy vibrations, it'll come off and spray gasoline everywhere. My hands still smell like gas...

The one thing that really pisses me off. We missed the meteor shower by like, a day! Why couldn't the power go out a few days ago and be clear skies...

Oh well, now I'm off to brave the LIE to get to the last day of my internship. Hoepfully most of the lights are on, as Long Island is on it's own power grid for the day.
