Power outages and people at lights yelling at each other about who has the right of way, causing chaos. It makes a bit of a case for roundabouts. Power outages wouldn’t affect traffic near as much. Just a random thought.

Subtle message from the Chinese suggesting that they will handle Norks for us but don’t think we’re best buds.

Get used to it California.

When the environmental left’s dream of everyone being forced to rely on wind and sun for energy is finally realized, this will be a daily occurrence.

“Where were you when the lights went out?”

Under the Boardwalk!

In the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby is where I’ll be

(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be havin’ some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we’ll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk

The Drifters - Under The Boardwalk
