So, this happened on Dec. 27th:

  Power restored at Disneyland after outage halts rides

  (CNN)Power has been restored at Disneyland after an outage left some
  tourists stranded on rides, according to park spokesperson Suzi Brown.
  [...]

  Geoff Fienberg [...] was on the "It's a Small World" ride when the
  outage happened. [...] The guests sat "25 minutes in the dark" and were 
  eventually escorted off.[...]

  "It was just dark, music was still playing.[...]"

The horror.  The horror.

Hey, Californians![1]  Start the year right by verifying your voter
registration status via https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/ .

It's quick.  (It just reverified my right to damage the body politic.)
The next major election in this state will be the statewide direct
primary on June 5, 2018 (registration closes May 21st) -- though some
counties / districts might have local elections sooner.  Check at your
county elections Web site.
