After watching T3, it's kinda freaky seeing that shit. What with this mad computer virus going about trying to get into all the computers & then big blackouts in major cities....... ooooohhhh creeeppy. lol!!

American Blackout? how long before that's the name of an emo band formed by a guy who fell in love with a girl during the blackout but lost her because it was dark, so he absolutely had to form a band to tell the world of his heartache?

gord · 15th August 2003, 04:37 PM

Press Release
8/14/03

From: RIAA Headquarters
Location: Secrect Headquarters in U.S.

Re: Northeastern and Canadian Blackout

In an effort to stop illegal file trading, we the RIAA, implemeneted Operation Electron Kill. We have successfully caused a test stop of the electrial grid from Ohio, to Canada, to New York.

Our observations have seen a significat dropp in illegal file trading in these area's in the last several hours.

The RIAA apologizes for this inconvience. The RIAA prides itself on helping it's member muscician's and will go to any lengths to make sure our....I mean.. their profits are maximized.

Again, the RIAA, in an effort to squech illegal file trading claims resposiblity for the massive power outage in the United States.

Regards,

The RIAA
