What I said to PEPCO when the lights came back on, with apologies to He Man

He Man, Masters of the Universe

I HAVE THE POWER

What I thought when I first heard the word ‘Derecho.’

Doritos 

How could a potato chip cause this much damage?

About 660,000 DC area households are without power as I write this. That’s down from over one million households that lost all power after the derecho struck Friday night.

Since all crises are personal and given the a/c is running and Hog Heaven World Headquarters is internet-connected again, I think PEPCO is going a great job. It’s going to be a scorcher this week, so I hope PEPCO and the four other utilities affected restore power to those other folks soon.

Is the Redskins’ practice bubble air conditioned?
