Yeah, we had it hard when we were kids


I still remember watching the Walt Disney's Wonderful World Color of show (on our black and white TV; I was probably 7 at the time) and the power went out.  When it came back on, the show was over.  Kids these days have it easy.

I remember the peacock when color first came out; but to be honest, even with recorders or the Hopper, if the power goes out, nothing records. 😉

Three magic words: Uninterruptible Power Supply

Had the VCR and amplified tabletop antenna plugged into one for years, thanks to our Mattel-level electric utility. "We can watch it later if the power comes back on."
