Found this on the jokes page of our Mac User Group BBS:

We had a power cut at our house this morning and my PC, laptop, TV, DVD, iPad & my new surround sound music system were all shut down.

Then I discovered that my mobile phone battery was dead and to top it
off it  was raining outside, so I couldn't play golf.

I went into the kitchen to make coffee and then I remembered that this
also needs power, so I sat and talked with my wife for a couple of
hours.

She seems like a nice person.
