During the middle of Tech's roller coaster of the game in a fashion that only GT can pull off - our power went out. We had just come back from 0 and gone up on Miami 20 - 19, and pop - power gone. Andrew was a slightly upset at the situation. He decided it was time to see use the "f-word" before the last word in every sentence. Sometimes - it was used three or four times in a sentence. I was laughing my tail off - it was hilarious.
However, my favorite line was something that only an engineer from Georgia Tech would say - "I want to know who is going to pay the extra cost of having to cool my "fing" house back down after the "fing" power has been off for two "fing" hours. Anyone that knows anything about "fing" thermodynamics knows that it is going to cost more to "fing" cool it off than it would to "fing" maintain it."
To say I lost my ability to not laugh in his face is an understatement. I mean really, we are tossing thermo around now. The fact that some times an accident happens and someone hits a power poll, or an animal gets fried on the line, or it just blows a transformer, was totally lost on him. The only thing that mattered was that he couldn't watch football and it was going to cost more money to cool the house back down. But Thermo, really??
In case you were wondering, we drove to Bop's while finding the game on xm in the car, then to bass pro, then drove out to the country and back in to town while listening to the game. I'm glad no one was subjected to our rants when Tech melted down again. It was pretty terrible.
