Rolling Power Outages here in Texas.......
power emergency here...

they are having anywhere from 15 - 90 minutes of power outages to ease the load...

really odd to me that they weren't prepared... or send out a notice to us...

anyone experience or experiencing this?

I have been without power yet... but you never know...

Nothing here. I still have had power all day long. I hope it does go out so I have an excuse not to work

hopefully the power remains out for a week, so the "superbowl" doesn't take place

Yes rev, my chainsaw does work on petrol... and I have a nice fire going. That being said, the rolling power outages are a pain in the butt... trying to get some work done. Got some servers in different locations - rolling outages pissing me off...

And, besides, I'd like to go outside and not freeze my ass off... being indoors all the time sucks...

now why do you want the Super Bowl to not take place? I hate Jerry too, but should be a good game.

I was down to 2 minutes left on my 3rd and last battery back up when the power came back up. Servers go down and clients can't get to the website and I'm screwed. Don't need that sh!t.
