Well, I never dared hope that it would actually happen, but my school finally lost power. Me and my girlfriend had just arrived back on campus tonight after going out to dinner, and as we were walking back to our dorm she looked up and said "huh, all the lights are out." A quick glance around campus quickly confirmed that my day had indeed come. Smiling I pulled my A2 out of my pocket and lit our way into the building and up the stairs.
Our first stop was my room, as I wanted to pick up some more flashlights, just to be, you know, extra prepared. I suggest that my gf take one, but she refused and stepped back into the hallway. A moment later she said "Actually, can I get one of your flashlights?"
To quote Stewie Griffin "Victory is mine!"
She picked my L4 over my P3D, it seems she really liked the smooth floody beam. Anyway, I had my fun, standing in the hallways illuminating everything, though I'm sure most of my floor mates thought I was a nut.
Now the best part came a little bit later though, when my gf turned to me and said "Maybe I would like one of your lights." She seemed torn between my P3D and L4. But later said that maybe she would like a yellow flashlight.
This is great because when I wanted to get my A2 I had to make a deal with the devil. And by that I mean I had to promise my her a puppy; fortunately I managed to talk her down to a rabbit. But even after that she thought I was nuts for sitting through the 2 hour bus ride (2 hours both ways) to the nearest SW with an A2. So, as you can see, asking for a flashlight is quite a turnaround for her. Especially cuz she turned down all my previous offers.
Anyway, that's my story, just thought I would share.
