It was a hot steamy July evening I invited a friend of mine over to do some BBSing. She arrived at my house around 8:30pm, and ready to do some nasty chatting on MSS. No sooner did Veronica get in the door than the skies grew dark. The storm struck with lighting and thunder. The lights began to grow dim, and eventually the went out, leaving us in the dark with no power to run our computer. Not knowing what to do (obviously were addicted), we lit some candles and placed them in different areas of my sunken living. With no power for the A/C the humidity was horrendous, unbearable with the heat. At least we were glad that we had a portable radio. We turned it on to a mellow station. Veronica said "Hey Jan,I can't stand this heat anymore. I hope you don't mind if I take off my pants." I said, "Hell no, it's too HOT to wear anything. I think I will take off mine too." Wearing only our t-shirts and panties, we sat patiently waiting for the power to come back on. As we sat in the flicking lights of the candles, we were really bumming. Hours went by and still nothing.
