14. About ten years ago a supervisor of mine...
was telling us about a ghost he'd seen. This man is extremely truthful and reliable. I believe he saw something, I just don't know what. Anyway, he was getting into the story when the power to our entire production unit went down. We could never get him to tell the rest of that story.

3. The power's been flickering here all day. It's the wind.
Put the popcorn away and get over it.

5. Find a pail and fill it with water.
Murphy's law + irish superstition says if you got it you won't need it. If you don't got it you can't flush the toilet and that stinks.

18. So if the power goes out for a couple of days you're all set
