Where For Art Thou Ohio Edison?

As of this posting we are entering our 39th hour without power.

I just got back from a couple of meetings and in my wanderings noticed two areas where trees had fallen over power lines - so it's obvious where the trouble spots are. What I also noticed was that the trees, for the most part, had been removed, making accessibility to the power lines possible. What I didn't see was a single Ohio Edison truck in either of these locations!

Where are they? Well, we heard that they are in Texas helping out the Hurricane Ike victims. Hello? Wasn't it the remnants of Hurricane Ike that came through here on Sunday night?! Nothing like taking care of your own.

But there is a silver lining...we played games last night. No television, computer or video games - well, actually, the game we played was "Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader", on DVD, with our tv hooked up to the generator.

But we did play it by candlelight...
