Default anyone else without power?

4 days now. Granby ct was looking like a war zone with loads of trees down. The droid still works though. The generator too....but starting to sound like its got marbles running around in it. Will get a new one when things clear up. Not sure when the power will be back on. Hopefully by the weekend. Gas shortages are everywhere and it took about an hour to find gas. Even with conserving generator usage, we've been going through 3-4 gallons a day.

That's it, time to paint one of the camaros flat black, put some spikes on the front bumper, and a clutched blower poking through the hood!

Most of our town is out but we never lost it. Living across the street from the sub station ftw. Shop never lost it either but a good chunk of Grafton St in Worcester, which is a fairly major rd, still didn't have power yesterday either.
