No no, portable power can work for the internet, computer screens are strangely illuminating, and water is pressurised in water towers, not at the house.

We have a well at my house, so power is required for running water here. And yah, a computer screen is like giant flashlight. And while it's possible to do things without electricity, it certainly makes things easier and more convienent.

Im pretty sure its a law you have to have electricty and running water. Fucking America.

Okay, so I'll have water Friday. Still no word on the electric. :-\

I probably won't hook up the cable and internet until Monday. It's just something else I won't have time for Friday.
