DEAR GOD!! Millions won't be able to check facebook immediately after they get home from work or school!

Families might have to talk to EACH OTHER at dinner. OH, THE HORROR

Seriously though, this is a pretty big outage, covering much of Tennessee, Kentucky, and Southern Indiana.

Reports say it’s a complete outage of Internet, and data services, as well as some cell coverage.

I saw some of that here in Memphis this morning, but thought it was either my phone or cell tower.

Decades ago mrs p6 and I had to deal with one of her “well meaning” friends who called Children and Youth Services to remove our children from our home.

Yes, we were at a low time with sometimes OTA TV, electric on and off, but I set up what is now “off the grid” solutions so we rarely were without power.
When the TV wasn’t working the kids listened to shortwave. They started to learn French.

One of the phrases they learned...I didn’t.. was “throw it away, it’s not working.”

But the main complaint was...wait for it...

WE DIDN’T HAVE NINTENDO!

Of course I could set it up but it wasn’t worth taking power from things we actually needed.

The argument was everyone else in our area DID have video games and so our kids were deprived and being abused and should be removed.

I kid you not!

CYS sent an inspector out and it became a weekly annoyance until mrs p6...bless her heart...asked me if I had ever asked for proper ID.

Turns out he didn’t have a driver’s license, car registration, not to mention official ID from CYS.

You don’t want to know what I did to him and CYS.

In retrospect I should have done more and sued for millions, but hey, I’m a nice guy
