So THAT'S why the power went out... by SnArL 2007-06-12 19:19:28
There was a bright flash and the power went out for about half a second. Didn't know why, until I went outside and saw a fire truck at the end of the complex. Walked around and saw this.

Yes, that's the power line. Yes, it's ON FIRE.

The fire truck left...I guess because there's not much they can do but call TXU and have them send out a lineman to fix it.
