Back with a rant
Okay, you know how the power company's job is to provide power to people's houses? And restore power when it goes out for whatever reason?

Well, it's true, believe it or not. That's what we pay them for.

So I get this ad from the power company, saying I could buy a home generator through them for something like $2500, payable in 24 easy installments, no interest.

Now, I'm sure I can get a generator for less than that elsewhere, but that's not the point. The point is that I pay the power company for electricity, and I'm sure as hell not going to pay them extra so they can slack off in keeping us supplied with electricity.

Weasels.
