Someone Blew a Fuse
Pewaukee, WI
At 1:30 a.m. Nov. 12, the 52-year-old woman reported to police that her husband had turned off the electricity in the house and that he was playing games with her, but that there had been no physical or oral argument, according to the police log.
When police spoke with the husband, he said he had plugged in a space heater in the basement and it must have blown a fuse.

Yeah, especially since fused electrical panels have been extinct since Christ wore short pants.

Oh, I always loved playing those “shut off the electricity” games my ex and I used to play. We also played ” change the locks” and that ever-popular game ” who’s been served a restraining order?”.

Did you ever get to play the “You give me the mortgage money and ** I’ll ** pay the bank.” game?? It’s a real blast.. Only lasts 3 months though.. In the end, you either come up with 3 more payments in 5 days or the bank takes the house..

I personally like the “Yes, your Honor, I gave her the truck, too, just like you ordered” game. Delivered it in person, right through — uh, TO — her front door.
