WE HAVE POWER BACK!!!

[MediumBrownDog]

Boy, let me tell you, it has been an interesting 7 days without power, water, or phones in the wake of Hurricane Isabelle. And then, to add insult to injury, we had 5 tornadoes rip through northern Richmond on Tuesday. Very nice. Hats off to everyone in Richmond, Va who pulled together to help each other out.

I'm very happy for you. I have been wondering about the power situation on the east coast. Oh yeah, welcome! :toast:

Here's a few headlines from MSNBC from the last few days.

Things are finally looking sane.
