Chip missed this one.  I guess it's near and dear to me because it was the day I buried my FiL:

On this date...

In 2003, a major outage knocked out power across the eastern United States and parts of Canada. Beginning at 4:10 p.m. ET, 21 power plants shut down in just three minutes. Fifty million people were affected, including residents of New York, Cleveland and Detroit, as well as Toronto and Ottawa, Canada. Although power companies were able to resume some service in as little as two hours, power remained off in other places for more than a day. The outage stopped trains and elevators, and disrupted everything from cellular telephone service to operations at hospitals to traffic at airports.

breakfast done and cleaned up. BEACH TIME!

Padron #3000 maduro lit.
Good for you, Deano!  Glad you're enjoying your retirement.  You seem happy.  And damn if I ain't jealous of that head of hair you got.   :D
As the hockey players call it, 'that's a nice mop you got up there' - not quite to the level of 'sick flow', need about 4 more inches...cough, don't we all, cough.
Oh, you said another 4"....never mind.

Remember that day well. Hard to believe it's been that long. We were still living in our first apt.

G'Morning, everyone.
Good morning, Steve.  Happy Friday to you.    And you too Bret.  Seems you snuck in at some point.
Nah, it's an illusion. I'm not really here.

@Bean.
ROUND ROCK, Texas (KXAN)- Nutty Brown Cafe plans to make a new home in Round Rock.
Thursday night, Round Rock City Council approved selling the 18.4 acre McNeil Community Park to Mike Farr, owner of Nutty Brown Cafe.

HEB is tearing down the old place to build a store.  Another very sad growth story.
Wow, that is cool.  That McNeil park was a creepy place.  Rendezvous point for the Williamson County gays (I know, even on this side of town).  The warden and I went to play tennis there one evening, haven't been back.  Won't be sad to see it replaced with a live entertainment venue.  They will have to do something about the traffic situation.  It already sucks due to the significant retail in that area.  Yes, I meant to say sucks.
We supposed to just ignore the fact that Mark knows where the gays congregate?
You didn't hear me call No Homo?  Well, I did.
Oh, I thought you were saying "Mo' homo!" Is that not what everybody else heard? Sounded like it to me.

No....I just thought it was a given.
Not until recently.  That night at the White Whale Inn changed my life.

I wish you'd also been unable to convey the mental image.
