The wrong kind of going down.

Whiterose Outage: 8:30-9:30 PM EDT, 2nd outage 2:30-3:00AM EDT

Both times were lights out in Lawrenceville (for us and our neighbors)

seems to be back up...

In the UK, the expression "You're going down" means you'll be sent to prison.

Used in TV cop shows, it should be uttered in a South London accent (aka Sauf London), and frequently comes with an unexpected term of endearment attached.

As in: "You're goin' dahn, sunshine!"

Speaking of going down, your ferret icon yawning in conjunction with that phrase has damaged my brain...

So ferrets are low-to-the ground, nearsighted little investigative beasties, with cold, wet noses.

If you happen to be in dishabille, possibly with a close personal acquaintance, on a rug in front of a fire, you could find yourself investigated.

It's quite the surprise.

You went there again, didn't you? :-)
