"You're a naughty old lady!"

Strange thing happened while I was driving earlier. I looked ahead and suddenly, three traffic lights, all in a row, went out at the same time. Naturally, I wanted to believe that some highly skilled bank robbers were planning a heist, and needed to take out the power grid of several blocks in order to disable a top-notch security system. Naturally.

The only problem was that I wasn't driving through the nicest part of L.A. at the time. A crowbar and a menacing glare would have been sufficient to commit a burglary in that neighborhood. So the power outage was probably just another side effect of this city's fantastic infrastructure. No biggie. Why would anyone need electricity after stealing a TV anyway?
