South Florida Makes National News...

So everyone is talking about the the blackout that happened earlier (while I was driving down US-1, NOT fun.)

It's funny, because while at the gym I heard everyone talking about having "black out for the blackout" parties, which I, personally, find hilarious. Leave it to Miami to find a way to make a party out of something.

But it was interesting, because like New York's black out a few years ago, noone went crazy and looted, pillaged, etc. Possibly because it was the middle of a bright sunny day. What did people do? Everyone went outside, walked around. People congregated on street corners, talking to each other.

As long as you weren't driving, things were civil. It was actually nice.

But I feel for the people still without power.

(additionally, I don't think FPL is handling this in a super awesome way, PR-wise, but let's see what happens.)
