I turned off the power for the day and fired up the generator...

TAFKASE — 3/31/2008 5:09:33 PM (archived)

It was time to give it a good test run anyway...

It kept my walk-in freezer going...And I didn't miss any TV so it's working great.

I had to stop my wife from doing laundry, so I gave her the day off...She went shopping instead.

So all in all, the day cost me a small fortune...But it was worth it to save the Earth.
