Parts of NY are back on, but the City is still out. No subway service and traffic is still a mess. I finally got my channels back though. My stations come out of NY, so I had no local TV last night. Slowly but surely.

It must be so annoying!! I think it's only at times like this that you realise how much you use electricity for. I hope no one died and that it all comes back smoothly.

On a side note, tons of people were also locked out of their hotels last night in the City, because a lot of the keys now are electronic. I didn't even think about that.

Sometimes the old fashioned way is the best!! Didn't Richard Gere mention something like that in Pretty Woman...

I agree. Too much electronical stuff today. They were saying if you had a flashlight, you probably could have sold it for a thousand dollars last night and batteries were no where to be found.
