  • Happened at my folks house in the breaker from the mains. Mr. Rodent’s carbon corpse acted as an electrode and blew a hole through the box half an inch in diameter. This happened Christmas Eve. With replacing the panel and making an appointment with the power company to inspect and reconnect, we didn’t get power back for over 3 weeks. Since they live on a well, and the booster pump needs electricity to run, we had to draw water from the storage tank a bucket at a time.





  • According to Bloomberg, Johann Rupert told the conference to bear in mind that when the poor rise up, the middle classes won’t want to buy luxury goods for fear of exposing their wealth.

    “How is society going to cope with structural unemployment and the envy, hatred and the social warfare?” he said. “We are destroying the middle classes at this stage and it will affect us. It’s unfair. So that’s what keeps me awake at night.”

    … its almost comical how he thinks of this. The first thought is his businesses wont be able to sell luxury to anyone but the ultra wealthy.
