Super power line——超级电线

During the recent blackout in New York city, my sister’s phone at the ferry company kept ringing as people inquired about service. One caller asked if the ferry was running.

  “Yes,” she answered.

  “How? There’s been a power failure in New York!” said the caller.

  “Don’t worry,” said my sister. “Our ferry’s plugged into the New Jersey side!”
