Okay.. I'm in downtown LA and had a pretty long power failure.
Heard it was a city wide power outage...

DWP guy cut a power line, the line sent a jolt back into the grid and took the whole thing down is what ive heard. Well that and now the LAPD is now on Alert status.

I was working from home today and whoops power gone. All of Studio City and No Ho was out.

Power Guy cutting the wrong chord my ***...if it were that easy to take down the whole city we'd be in deep ****.

Something else happened here, and if indeed it was just one guy than by announcing it we just made ourself an easy target...

Props to my buildings washing machines: I was doing laundry and when the power came back on they started from where they stopped...good job

"Worker error kills power to half of L.A."

I guess that's the official story...

I don't know what pisses me off more, the fact that they are lying straight to their teeths to us or the fact that they think that we are all stupid enough to buy such crap...
