oh man i got stuck in new york after a 16hr flight from johanesburg(south africa). man that sucked, imagine a new york airport with all flights cancelled and everyone is pissed off, i spent two days in that city. i got to explore manhatten though, which was cool.

I was studying for a calculus exam that evening, which was susposed to happen early next morning. Holy SHIT - that blackout saved my ass, cause I would've been screwed if I had to take it that morning. That exam got rescheduled 5 days later.

Every single day before the rescheduled exam date, I studied my ass off morning-till-midnight to ensure that I would not fail it.

and that's my blackout story.

i ended up bumping into DJ Hordash at Finch Station that afternoon .. and i'll i'm gonna say is .. whatta !@#%^^'n crazy nite that turned out to be !

Thats enough out of you about that night.

On a side note, that was the first night one of my indoor cats was ever outside. My poor kitty was lost outside all night!!!!

I was starting to do a brake job on a TTC bus when EVERYTHING went dark in our shop...I knew right away that THIS blackout was severe since power failures in our shop rarelly occur...We basically just sat around outside & enjoyed watching the stars & loving the peace & quiet To this day we make sure that there are no A/C & lites left on in any of the management offices...We can't waste electricity as we all did in the past...

Well, did pretty much nothing, i was working till 8 that evening, we have backup generators, and for a corp to shut down is impossible.lol


Anyhow, i went home and had a few beers sat outside and gazed at the skys, was amazing!

Today, the 16th, was the night Oakey spun at the Guv!!!

As for my blackout story, I was working at the Coca-Cola Canning plant in Weston when the power went out... They made us stay until 9pm that night but we ended up drinking gallons of pop that were stuck on the lines and gave out cans to motorists passing by!

The drive home was scary tho... Driving down the 400 at night with no lights, it felt like I was in the booneys or something!?

I remember seeing all the stars and even some shooting stars, wow, what a beautiful night that was... Oh yeah, numerous joints were smoked as well, the best session was near Sunnyside, blazing a fatty and looking at a DARK downtown from the shore
