You learn to appreciate this great country and do not get excited or depressed by losing the internet or cable TV for a couple hours.
Sorry you had that traumatic experience. I am sure that I speak for all when I wish you good will and a fast recovery from your trauma. And like you, I enjoy the coffee at McDonald's much more than Starbucks.
Yes, been there. 45 years ago in Saudi Arabia. In the shower, power went out, total darkness, no flashlight, no water, and body covered with soap. That was worth whining about.
