I went to bed with 2 inches and woke up with 10!

Category
10 inches of snow that is. We also woke up without power, and as you may have noticed all the Instant servers were down also. Turns out comcast had a major outage in the Durham area that took them a good 5 hours to fix. It was most likely downed telephone poles somewhere, there were a lot of them. The interesting thing about my new house, is that I need a Wireless Cell Extender for my cell to work, so without power I have no cell phone, No VoIP phone, no power, no heat, no hot water, no well water. I can see this living in the middle of nowhere thing could get very interesting.

Did you notice this news story? and remember this one my next prediction is the lotto numbers, be sure to keep an eye out for them...

I've had friends who swear by a backup generator. I use to think it was a sign of the "off the grid" sect but with my [some day] move to the farm, I can see the need.

Carl - want to try negotiating a group discount ?

Yes, that happens to me every day!

Gravatar Image4 - That's the best blog topic I've read in a long time....
Oh, wait.... you were talking about snow!

Gravatar Image5 - @4 Craig, I can forward you some email that I get all the time. They will allow you to get 10 inches, all for one low price apparently

Gravatar Image6 - Interestingly enough (I guess), but I blogged about the DR weaknesses of VOIP @ Home just last week...
