Blackouts and Urban Cavemen
Storytelling Saturday on a power (outage) trip
Once upon a time...
The recent heat wave resulted in a mini-blackout of sorts in my NYC neighborhood...recalling the events of August 14, 2003.
Huddled around flickering candles and eating food before it could spoil, longtime neighbors introduced themselves, discovering similarities and answering the question of the day: “Where were you when the lights went out?” But I’m getting a little ahead of myself. This story begins in the stars.
Read all of “Blackouts and Urban Cavemen” here.
Who else wants to spin a yarn?
