5. They'll never know...

as soon as they can get a generator, get back online, they'll electrocute or asphixiate themselves, or burn their house down putting gas into a running generator.

They must be looking on the bright side: after October none of those homeless people will be able to screw the credit card companies by declaring bankruptcy. And that's what's really important, after all!

"I think the number one thing that went right and probably saved the most lives was the phone call from GW Bush to the leaders in the area." Wow, he's a hero :eyes:
