Jamaica Public Disservice Company strikes again!
I woke up early this morning, ate breakfast, watched Hot Rod TV and Gearz on SPEED Channel, and then went back to bed.

I woke up again at about 8:50 am to find my radio's clock flashing at 08:22 am, indicating that power had gone. While I was setting the clock, the power went again. I called the power company and heard that there was scheduled maintenance going on and that power would be back at 5 pm. Oh, joy.

I did some shopping, ate some food, went for a drive to the airport, and had a nap. I woke up at about half past four and stayed in bed waiting for the power until about 5:45 pm when I called the power company again. I then heard that there were delays and the power would come back at 7 pm.

I called them again at 7:30 pm to hear that they were wrapping up and power would come back at 7:45 pm.

I called them again at 8:15 pm to hear that it would come back at 8:30 pm.

Amazingly enough, power came back at 8:30 pm... and went again at 9:00 pm.

Power came back again at about 9:45 pm, hopefully for good, although I cannot be certain.

Postscript: Power went again at about 10:10 pm, came back at about 10:20 pm

Jamaica Public Disservice Company Limited is a gigantic rass.
