Hey all. Some of you have noticed that i’ve been MIA for the last week.
Last week a major snowstorm came through my area and dumped over 3 feet of snow on my house. It’s the snowstorm i’ve been wanting for quite some time. I was also kind of hoping for a blackout. I don’t know why but I just find them fun. Well we got that blackout and about a minute later I realized blackouts suck in the winter because then you have no heat. Normally you can just jump town and get yourself a nice hotel room but over 3 feet of snow kind of traps you in the house. Plow trucks couldn’t come through because the snow was too heavy so they needed to use backhoes and bobcats to move the snow. Our plow guy couldnt plow the driveway either so we had to shovel a good portion of it. This kept us trapped in the house from Thursday-Saturday. We finally skipped town on Saturday and only on Monday did we finally get our power back. Thursday-Monday is a long ass time to have no power.
The lesson of the story is: Be careful what you wish for, you just may get it.
No power has put me way behind and i’m catching up. I should have some killer content coming soon for you guys. Thanks for your support of AdHustler.com throughout the past years and I hope you will spread the word so that we can make 2010 truly memorable. Big things are coming.
Holy shit that’s a lot of snow, mate. Always remember you can survive by eating furry little animals raw. Cheers
Yeah, snow will do that to you… we had a blackout during an October snow storm in 2006 – no power for 8 days! Luckily we had heat, as the gas fireplace still worked. We used the snow to keep the food cold, until it hit 65 3 or 4 days in, then all that food was wasted.
Why we had no power:

PA got it about 2 weeks ago, same type of storm and I had a webinar to do for 100 eager PPV students. My power didn’t get shut off but I can relate to all that shoveling man. Hope you had a snow blower to try to stay ahead of the shoveling… My daughter and I made a full sized igloo in the front yard. You don’t see many of those in Amish country!

Wow man! What a bummer. I agree blackouts are fun for the first 2 minutes. Then you’re like. Oh wait… This kinda sucks. Haha
