First World Problems...
There is a very interesting but immensely frustrating correlation between the number of flashlights in the house and the probability of a power outage. Obviously the local utility tracks my flashlight purchases, and only turns off the power when the number of functioning lights in the house drops below the number necessary to navigate a several-hours-long blackout.
I am tempted to purchase flashlights by the case, and then simply return them, but I suspect that the surveillance capabilities of PSE&G is more sophisticated than simply counting flashlights in and assuming a failure rate that increases with time.
Do they have a spy in the house? Is it one of the brats? Is that why they come visit? My original assumption was for the free food and drink, but now I might have to reevaluate!
