Random though for a random day. What would happen if the lights went out? Like worldwide total send your ass back to the darkages blackout. What kind of worldwide apocolypse would happen? i don't mean just boom lights out we can fix it, I'm talking electrostatic disturbance that made electric conductivity over several watts near impossible. The gods themselves would struggle to create lightning. That eliminates the use of generators, handcranks, batteries etc. . . io'm bored and will probably ramble onward incoherently this cut is your salvation.

It's wierd to think of how the world would react. I remember the blackout in new york, everyone feared the worst. Some people were absolutly glued to the TV's watching as if any moment an enormous riot driven fireball would erupt from midtown or times square and all hell would break loose. I laughed at the time thinking about what my friends and i would've done back when i still lived there and something like that happened, probably not much would've changed, save for when it got dark out and we'd leave the park in the hands of the dealers whilst we went to someones house to play nintendo (Although we'd mostly go to Danny's cause well he was the only one who managed to get his parents to get him a computer, the only one in the neighborhood besides the library ) Other than that our days were spent riding bikes and playing handball or basketball (no . . . just leave it alone people) somehow i doubt the world on the whole would be so kindly.
Now as I sit on the 'ol PC just kinda wasting time before i depart from work, with the TV on and listening to music and enough things buzzing in my room to give anyone a sensory overload. I'd imagine going a few days without my toys wouldn't be too bad, and probably all in all for the best. I'd imagine much more than a month I'd be close to losing it. We're so reliant upon these things that it's hard to fathom why we aren't born with a retractable cord coming from our rears. In essence as a peoples we've become lazy, extremely so for the most part at least.
Everytime I'm at work and i get a phonecall asking if somethings in stock, I say yes, and the response is oh good I'll come right in then. Apparently the walk from the parking lot to the door is waaayyy too far unless the one thing you need is not here. Which wouldn't be too bad on it's own, until they ask what it's about and if it's good. Yup. think about that, let it soak in, absorb, process, flavorize . . . got it . . good.
How long would the peace last when conveinience left the building. how many would just die of starvation when th enon-perishables run out and suddenly hunting and gathering would take over? How long before the Amish just dominate the world? Honestly i think my first move would be to the Amish country. Save for the whole religious bend I could learn some valuable stuff on how to live in an unelectric world. So while the world falls to ruin and bank accounts dissapear and the rich are nothing more than broke persons in a big house, well i'll be raising barns and not noticing how deep in the shit we all are =) Off to work!!
