Nicole Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Life would be much more creative. I would read more, write more, play more guitar, sing, write stories and blah de blah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiritchaser Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 In 1974, yes I am that old there was a series of power cuts right acroos the country and we used to sit my brother and I with our parents with candles in the living room huddled together to keep warm and play I spy by candlelight. It was probably the best fun I had as a child, without ever going outside. The streets were deserted and it was complete silence as no TV or Radio's coould be heard. If it happened today it would be like 28 Days Later and the Rage would take over the crazies and everyone would end up fighting with one another and town centres would be looted as Video Camera's would be down so no one to stop you. Or maybe we'd all get a decent nights kip.lol Spiritchaser. Blacked Out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MachoMat Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 If the power were forever gone I would expect to hear a lot of the following: "What do you MEAN I have to take the STAIRS? There must be at least 10 of them!" "I have to WALK to get where I want to go? Are you out of your MIND?" ""But I NEED my cell phone!" It's the 7th sign of the Apocolypse! Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand!" :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol Several weeks ago a severe thunderstorm killed our power for 4 days. I must admit that I am glad that it happened in the Summer months, not the Winter. That happened once for 2 days and we had to go to her grandparents house. They have a fireplace. This time my wife and I played cards by candlelight, talked, and made another baby. Hey y'all I'm gonna be a 2-time 2-time 2-time daddy! Woo-Hoo!!!

Boyo Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Hey y'all I'm gonna be a 2-time 2-time 2-time daddy! Woo-Hoo!!! Congrats dude! But why did you say "2-time", three times...? :D Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Gringo Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Congrats Macho! A baby is a coming OHHHH YEAHHHH!!! I'd build a wind generator... get some light and heat going then sit down with some nice music and a good book and watch civilisation go insane and crash to the ground... Then eat a pot noodle....

Christof Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 if all went wrong i would invent a new method of powering everything by using the unharness energies that teenage blokes have when it comes to masterbation. wank energy would be the way forward people! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Well done MM, hope the poor kid grows up not to look like his/her dad! ;) But really mate, Im chuffed for ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoMat Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 To Spiritchaser: If its a girl she will be Lydia Cecile. My moms middle name is Cecilia and my wifes fave person, great grandpa, was Cecil. Works out. :xyx If its a boy, not sure yet. We don't often agree on boy names but girl names seem to be easy for us. To Christof: :lol :thumbsup :lol You are always good for a laugh! Rep point for you! To Darkstar: I prayed that my firstborn, my son, would NOT look like me but it didn't work. Poor kid! :bawl Just kidding. He's gorgeous in spite of my "homely" genes. BTW I love the messages here. i learn all these cool new slang words all the time. Chuffed. I assume thats good. Am I right? :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
