Actually, still being affected by Saturday's storm. Power went off at 1:30, pole transformer exploded at 1:40. Trees took down wires (in several spots) along the feed on our dead end -- and one tree took down a pole. One of the three trees we lost took down our utility lines -- and part of our roof and siding. It was about 60 degrees (F) outside today, but 47 in the house.
All but one of our neighbors have gone to hotels -- as have my wife and daughter. Shadow, my German shepherd, and I have been "camping out" at home. I've been visiting for dinner and to take a shower -- and to charge up a little portable DVD player (and to use the public wi-fi). I wouldn't normally bring this up outside the Jetbook threads, but it really is very nice to be able to pop a new set of AAs into my Jetbook Lite when it runs low!
We should be back up and running next week.
