Greetings from Milford, NJ!

[mailman35]

i lost some of my roof in the storm, had to get a MR working to get this shot. i managed to keep power and everything else through the storm, so no flooded basement this time around.

that sucks dude..... so you have to pump to keep the basement empty?

 

[mailman35]

yeah i actually have 2 sump pumps, a primary and a battery backed up secondary. most homes up here have them.

 

[kloner]

dam,,,, no wonder rents so high here. i've never seen a basement in San Diego

 

[kloner]

the news said a levy broke and is flooded the entire town of NJ. must be why Bart sees it beeing so bad.

Can you go take a crap on the doorstep of the Dji headquarters for me? Maybe add a letter saying " we've been playing with your crap for years and paying for it. Here's some of ours for free. "

+1

looks like you are not the only very satisfied customers.....

non areial pics of the damage.

hello everyone.

i've been offline for a few days but just wanted to check in. the blogs are being overrun by spammers and I'll try to resolve that as I have time. our power is out and probably won't be on for another 10 to 14 days according to the power company. internet is also down so keeping up with the site is difficult.

i hope everyone is doing well.

Bart

if Ken needs any help lemme know. i'm familliar with it all

 

[Bartman]

kloner, thanks for the offer. i'm on top of it at the moment, hanging with the late night crowd at a coffee shop in Flemington, NJ. Neighbors a couple of miles away just got power so maybe 14 days is not a realistic estimate, hopefully it won't be longer!

 

[kloner]

good deal.... i'm a good deleter if you ever need somebody to spend a few hours cleanin up....

power is coming back up out here. that being said, i will be picking up a generator at some time in the near future. propane over gas

 

[kloner]

those first responder pictures of New Jersey are amazing, the place is destroyed. Bless you all......

Our lineman all left a few days ago to come help. A friend of mine went, $105 an hour, all the hours ya want

 

[Bartman]

Still dead here. Only my phone and a generator. Was at a coffeeshop last night using their wifi.

i certainly dont want to make light of the damage done out there on the east coast. however, sometimes it helps to have a bit of a laugh - so i thought id share a pic of some other storm damage done during Sandy....

Hope you get some power soon, Bart. That has to be frustrating.

 

[Sanderx]

Same here Bart. A frigging week without power now. It is getting kind of old....

 

[Bartman]

just got home from our friends' house to find we've got power and internet. i'm going to go watch the new episode of Gold Rush and get back here in the morning. thanks to everyone that offered help with our situation and sincerest condolences to those still waiting out the recovery process.

Bart

 

[Benjamin Rowland]

Good to have you back, Bart.
