There was such a strong gust of wind the night before and early yesterday morning that the electricity went out and it doesn't help that someone at the electric company in Amman, Jordan is rude, either. GRRR!

I hate power failures and it would seem that rude electrical company personel is world wide. The act like it is our fault when we call around here.
We have gotten 5 inches of snow since early this morning. A band of lake effect snow off of Lake Huron is hammering about a 20 mile area. Everywhere else is fine.

Yeah, that's so frustrating! One guy working there rudely told my mom to speak Arabic, which she does, then told her to speak English because her Arabic wasn't good. How insulting is that? This was last summer, when the electricity went out and I tried switching over and switching back. Finally, we got it back.

How rude is that to treat your mother like that. Aorund here they are also rude and if you ask when the power will be back on they act like you are nuts. Its there job to provide power isn't it?
Right now it is sunny here all of a sudden and it is still snowing. LOL.

a heat wave for sure. We are going to be getting another snow storm tommorrow into weds. We are about 15-20 inches above the average snowfall at this point. Could set a record for snow this winter.
