1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: It's night Side Dan Ray on w b Z, Boston's 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: news radio. 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 2: Well, did you survive the storm. I'm here to help you. 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 2: Doctor Dean wants to provide some counseling for all of you. 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 2: We had a lovely summer. The summer was spectacular throughout 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 2: New England, and then came the fall, and for the 7 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 2: first month of the fall, it was wonderful. First three 8 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: weeks anyway, it was wonderful. And then we heard the 9 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: weather forecasters, including my friend Jacob Wykoff, who we just 10 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 2: interviewed on WBZ, told us about this storm that was 11 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: churning up the coast. I don't even know if it 12 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: had a name, Rob, didn't that storm have a name, 13 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: not that I know. Yeah, it should have had a name, though, 14 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: it should have had a name. But so we'll call 15 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 2: it the October Norway. And everybody got really excited. He said, oh, 16 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: we're going to get some rain, which was great. We 17 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: needed rain. We have some drought conditions in New England 18 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: because the summer had been so beautiful. Well, this one, 19 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: the weather forecasters, they got it right. They said that 20 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: it was going to start raining probably Sunday afternoon, which 21 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 2: it did, and it hasn't even really stopped as far 22 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 2: as I'm concerned. At this point, I don't even want 23 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 2: to go outside, although I was outside. I did go 24 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 2: to the gym today, walk through the rain drops to 25 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: the gym. And this was a huge early winter Well 26 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 2: it's not winter because it's still fall storm, but this 27 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: is one that I remember, the storm of October nineteen 28 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: ninety one, which was the storm in which they shot well, 29 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 2: the movie was shot about the perfect storm, that ship 30 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: that went out and never was found. A great movie, 31 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 2: by the way, I remember as a reporter covering that storm. 32 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: Our daughter had just been born, and that was a 33 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: long time ago, nineteen ninety one, October of nineteen ninety one. 34 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:23,399 Speaker 2: She turns thirty four this month, so happy birthday, Katie Ray. 35 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: She's doing really well, she and her husband, and they're 36 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: the ones that have the dog, Mustard, and I'm going 37 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: to have some time with Mustard this weekend, which is 38 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: going to make my weekend just the best weekend possible anyway, 39 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: Thank goodness. The weather's going to be good this weekend. 40 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: But that when they told us it was going to rain, 41 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 2: and they told us it was going to rain for 42 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: a couple of days, I was thinking, well, okay, you know, 43 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: but I never knew the intensity with which they were talking. 44 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 2: Now I'm able to hunker down because I can go 45 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: to at whatever, you know, twelve thirty one o'clock in 46 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 2: the morning. I could sleep in till seven, eight nine, 47 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: whatever I want, simple as that. I'm a great sleeper 48 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 2: in the morning. But I feel really badly for those 49 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: of you who had to commute. Now, yesterday was Columbus 50 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 2: Day or Indigenous People's Day, whichever you celebrated. Maybe you 51 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: celebrated both of them. It doesn't matter. Many of you 52 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 2: did not have to go to work. There were people 53 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 2: did have to go to work, okay, And we saw 54 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: that horrific plane crash down on I Won ninety five 55 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: down in Dartmouth. That took sadly the life of the 56 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: couple from Middleton, Rhode Island who tonight. I watched the newscasts. 57 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 2: They seemed like they were just great people, contributed to 58 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: their community, and they took off under very difficult circumstances. 59 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: And I think one of the reporters was speculating that 60 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: they might not have known if they were in some 61 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: heavy fog, whether they were flying upright or up upside down. 62 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: I mean, just horrible, horrible ending in thank goodness that 63 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: the woman who the young woman who was driving the 64 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: which was damaged badly survived with no serious injuries as 65 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: far as we know. But I would just like to 66 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: talk to you and open it up here for an hour. 67 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: And I want to call this the counseling session, because 68 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: I really do think that I listened to the rain 69 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 2: this morning and I thought to myself, the roof's coming in. 70 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: I really did. I thought to myself, there's got to 71 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 2: be a substructural damage to this. The rain totals in 72 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: some areas, particularly along the Cape and along the south Shore, 73 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: were close to six inches. Camp Edwards, which is right 74 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 2: down here on Cape cod five point nine four inches, 75 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 2: Brewster four point six seven inches, and then I see 76 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: other communities on the Cape Dennis only one point nine 77 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: to eight inches. I do not believe that number whatsoever. 78 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: I do not believe that number whatsoever, because I don't 79 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 2: think that camp Edwards could get nearly six inches, Brewster 80 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 2: could get almost five yard with four and some of 81 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: these other towns in the Cape not that far away 82 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: two point four two point two. It just doesn't make sense. 83 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,799 Speaker 2: It doesn't make sense. I don't know how they measure 84 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 2: this stuff. But that was a huge storm. It lived 85 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 2: up to all of its expectations. I meant to ask 86 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: Jacob Wycoff, and I should have because he would know 87 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: that off the top of his head. But we got 88 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: talking about his career playing college football as a kicker, 89 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: not a punter. A kicker, which and there's a difference. 90 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: If you get six inches of rain. I think an 91 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: inch of rene means a foot of snow if I'm 92 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: not mistaken. There's some calculation you could make. Maybe there's 93 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 2: someone out there who's a lot smarter than me and 94 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: can tell me that what an inch of rain if 95 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: it was instead of being on October twelfth, it was 96 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: on January twelfth or December twelfth, what that amount of 97 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 2: precipitation would result in snow. I think it'd be like 98 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 2: close to six feet of snow. I think it's almost 99 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 2: an inch equals a foot of An inch of rain 100 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 2: equals a foot of snow under certain circumstances. Anyway, I'd 101 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: love to hear from you. What was your worst moment 102 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: of the last couple of days. Was it a commute? 103 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 2: Were you on Interstate I ninety five in Dartmouth when 104 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 2: that plane went down yesterday morning and shortly after takeoff 105 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 2: from the Novefa Airports, shortly after eight o'clock in the morning, 106 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: were you caught in the backdrop in the backup of 107 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 2: that obviously, I'm told that the cars were stopped in 108 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: both directions, which is perfectly understandable. That was a crazy story. 109 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 2: I'm told that the commute in and out of Boston 110 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: both of these days has been tough. I don't know 111 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: if you had to work outdoors. I saw some people 112 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 2: who were working today and I felt they were It 113 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 2: looked like they were a landscape crew, and I thought, 114 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: how can you work as a landscape crew with the 115 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: weather this way? I mean, they literally had full blown 116 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: parkers on, they had gloves, and they had power equipment. 117 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: It's like, can't you take the day off when it's 118 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: pouring rain, or at least stay in the truck for 119 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: a little while. I don't know. I'd love to hear 120 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 2: from you if you had to work outdoors today what 121 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: it was like. I can't of imagine. I know that 122 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: they were power outages, then goodness, it sounds to me 123 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: as if the power outages were not widespread. They were 124 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 2: not severe, but they were power crews out there. I 125 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: know that power crews have to work with safety considerations 126 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: and that when the wind was blowing, we had huge winds, 127 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: sixty mile an hour winds, not hurricane force winds. But 128 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 2: this was a big storm. And I just think that 129 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: tonight it might be an opportunity for you to call 130 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: doctor Dan. I'm here to help you out and calm 131 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 2: you and make make you understand that, yeah, we do 132 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: get an occasional storm like this, but I'd rather get 133 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: this out of the way in October than deal with 134 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: it in December, if you get my drift. So I 135 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 2: just want to open up the phone lines. I'd love 136 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: to know what was the worst experience you had. I'm 137 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: this morning listening to thunder, and it was, you know, 138 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 2: with its thunder, you know this lightning somewhere and if 139 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: you know how the thunder freaks out dogs and they 140 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: have to put them on, they put these comfort jackets 141 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: on them. I was looking for a comfort jacket this 142 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: morning because I've been in thunder lightning storms where lightning 143 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 2: hit very close. Uh, and it believed me. You realize it, 144 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 2: and it's not something you want to forget. But again 145 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: I'm more con I'm more interested in hearing your stories. 146 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: What what impact did this nor rest to have in you? 147 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 2: This is one that I think we should remember. Maybe 148 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: it's not the storm of October of ninety one which resulted, 149 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: you know, in the movie dealing with the Boat that 150 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 2: never returned. Remember I think Mark Wahlberg was in that movie. 151 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: If I'm not if I'm not mistaken, it was just 152 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: an incredible, an incredible storm. So I'm going to open 153 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 2: up the phone lines six one, seven, two, four, ten thirty. 154 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: I expect to talk later on tonight about the government 155 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 2: shutdown and what's we're now going to be tomorrow entering 156 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: week number three, And I have some information on that 157 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 2: which I'd like to share with you. And I also 158 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 2: like to ask you who do you blame. Maybe it's 159 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: a pox on all your houses, meeting all the politicians' houses. 160 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: I think that's probably the most intelligent viewpoint. But the 161 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 2: Republicans point of the Democrats, the democrat's point of the Republicans, 162 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 2: and the people who at the end of the day, 163 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 2: uh find themselves working without a paycheck or maybe losing 164 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 2: the job, are not the politicians. It's us so I'm 165 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: going to open up the lines. Love to talk with you, 166 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 2: whether you're a regular caller, a veteran caller, or someone 167 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: who's never called the show before. Six one, seven, two, five, four, 168 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 2: ten thirty six one seven, nine, three, one ten thirty. 169 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 2: Let's get it going here.

Normally before 196 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 2: snowstorms it's crazy. No bread, no no milk, all the 197 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 2: all the staples are gone.

Jordan? 205 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 3: It was a it was a long couple of days. 206 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 3: I currently work on an ambulance for a couple of different companies, 207 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 3: and I bounced to an the north shore Cape Cod 208 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: area I live on the South Shore and the commute 209 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: has been something I will say that, yeah, yeah. 210 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: I hear you that one. Are you an E. 211 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: M T. 212 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 2: Jordan? 213 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: If I could ask, yes, I am. Yeah. 214 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 2: Well, thank you, thank you for what you do. That's 215 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: such a critical job and you literally have people's lives 216 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 2: in your hands. And I also want I also whenever 217 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 2: I talk to an E. M. T. There's a lot 218 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 2: of things that drive me nuts about Massachusetts drivers. But 219 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: when Massachusetts drivers hear the ambulance coming from behind, and 220 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 2: first of all, they don't hear it, or if they 221 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: do hear it, they panic and they just sit there 222 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: and freeze. I have one rule of thumb when an 223 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 2: ambulance is coming up behind you and there's some poor 224 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 2: soul on that ambulance. It's my rule of thumb is 225 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: get the hell out of the way. If you've got 226 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 2: to drive up on the sidewalk, if you've got to 227 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 2: take a right hand turn down a one way street, 228 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: pay make way for the ambulance. So I just want 229 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 2: you to know that I'm the guy that's blasting the horn. 230 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 2: Here comes the ambulance. Get out of the way, everybody. 231 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: So you do great work. Thank you.

I'd love to 369 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 2: know what's sort of an impact this horrific weather of 370 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: the last couple of days. And it's part of New England. Hey, 371 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: it's not as bad as what they get down in Florida. 372 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 2: We can count our blessings. It's not like hurricanes in 373 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 2: Kansas or tornadoes in Kansas. It wasn't even a hurricane. 374 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 2: It was simply a nor'easter.

In the last couple 506 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 2: of days here in anywhere in New England, but particularly 507 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 2: in Rhode Island, Connecticut and southern Massachusetts, the Cape and 508 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: the south Shore. We have it really hit by this. 509 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 2: Now maybe there are other areas as well. Six one, seven, two, five, 510 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 2: four ten thirty or six one seven, nine three one 511 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 2: ten thirty. Coming back on night Side right after this. 512 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: You're on night Side with Dan Ray on w b Z, 513 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: Boston's news radio. 514 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Alex. Alex, how was your 515 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 2: last couple of days with this nor'easter that I think 516 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 2: was a big problem for everybody. Go ahead, Alex, welcome back. 517 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 6: Non eventful. Uh. The reason I say that was we 518 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 6: have a whole house generator and while I was working 519 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 6: outside when the weather was nice, painting, I noticed that 520 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 6: it was, uh, you know, there was something going on 521 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 6: with it. And luckily the technician came out just before 522 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 6: the storm. He goes, He goes, I'm glad I came 523 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 6: up because you never know you might lose your power. 524 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 6: So actually, I hate to say this, but I was 525 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 6: hoping the power would go out because I relished and 526 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 6: you know, in having this uh this unit you know 527 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 6: kick in when the you know, power goes out throughout 528 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 6: the whole town. And uh, you know sometimes we've we've 529 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 6: actually helped neighbors out, you know, because we were the 530 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,959 Speaker 6: only ones, or maybe a couple of people have generators 531 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 6: without power. 532 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 2: Okay, So so it stayed for you though you didn't 533 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: lose power and. 534 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 6: You're able to nothing happened. 535 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 2: You were able. You were able to paint your house, 536 00:28:58,720 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: not during the storm. 537 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 6: What what I'm saying is, while I was painting before 538 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 6: we had the storm, ually, you know, you don't think 539 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 6: of it. I looked and it's got it's got a 540 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 6: light that tells you whether you know, everything's. 541 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 2: Okay, green light hopefully okay, Usually. 542 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 6: It's a green light. So I says, oh, something's going 543 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 6: on with it. And you know, it turned out to 544 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 6: be a battery issue. But if I hadn't done that 545 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 6: and we lost power, I said, you know, why do 546 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 6: we have to get the generator? 547 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's a good thing. Then and you paint, 548 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 2: and you were able to paint, not in the rain, 549 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 2: obviously before the rain came. 550 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 6: No, No, I think I'm about uh, maybe I've got 551 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 6: just one small section to do. Uh, you know, I 552 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 6: did a whole house makeover by myself and now I 553 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 6: even mentioned that to uh to uh Morgan, and he goes, 554 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 6: that's that's fascinating. 555 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. It's probably fascinating to you, Alex. 556 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 2: I don't know that everybody the audience is uh is 557 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 2: hagging on your every word.
