First time back on line since Sunday night. I live four miles from the
center of downtown Tulsa, and was without power for 74 hours.

Whew -- sounds like a mess!

Nothing that bad here in Iowa, but Mary and I have spent a few hours
over the last couple of days working a chainsaw to cut up the downed
tree limbs. We lost power at the hotel for about 30 minutes (which
is the longest we've EVER lost power), and there are still thousands
of (mostly rural) folks without electricity.

No TV...no DVD...No ESPN!!! OH, THE HUMANITY!!!!
