Doesn't make any sense. Why should the power go out all of a sudden, and the phone line?
Maybe some sort of electrical storm or something.
That don't seem likely. Sky's just as blue as anything. Not a cloud. No lightning. No thunder. No nothing. How could it be a storm?
I can't get a thing on the radio. Not even the portable.
Well why don't you go downtown and check with the police, though they'll probably think we're crazy or something. A little power failure and right away we get all flustered and everything.
It isn't just the power failure, Charlie. If it was, we'd still be able to get a broadcast on the portable.
