yeah, but that's jersey and you know how the rest of the nation feels about jersey.

you do right?

Yes, we know. But I was BORN in Manhattan. So maybe there's hope for me. I'd love to engage in a "state vs. state" banter fest, but I spent the
weekend at the Jersey shore, and after viewing my fellow state citizens on
the boardwalk, ANY insult you throw I'd have to agree with.
Ok, sorry. I'll stick to the topic next. I promise.

Quick Question. What's the Chicago EAS?

the Chicago EAS was the accidental broadcast of the Emergency Alert System. There was some kind of an upgrade being done and the test was not meant to be done over the airwaves.

To paraphrase Red Dwarf:

Rimmer: "I believe it was aliens, Lister.''

Lister: "Oh, something sensible at last"



Seriously, it's hot, there's a lot of storms nationwide, and power consumption is at an all time high. Is it any wonder people are experiencing power outages?

I guess the thing that'll get me to believe that it's aliens is if they explain to me in person why they'd come to a technologically backward backwater at the outskirts of the galaxy just to pull a monumental prank on the naive natives.

Ah, we actually also had an outage here in Philadelphia today and the outside area like Neshaminy Valley, our power just went back on.
