I woke up briefly in the wee hours (sorry, didn't
check the clock) ... found all cable channels
were off ...

Have anything to do w/ the solar storm?

This was in Tennessee, w/ Comcast ...

Forgot to say that all is back to normal now ...

Knowing Comcast, it was probably squirrel farts...


It cleared a bit overhead but all I could see to the north was green
flickering clouds, lasers shooting at the police helicopter, groups of
ignorant peasants who thought it was something to do with the Olympic
Games...
then I woke up with my head on the keyboard.
