#####################me outside stunned.

police officer: You mrs. tootsie?

me: Ummm yes, why?

police officer: well mrs tootsie we've been alerted by the eletcric company that your wattage use has gone up drastically.

me: oh my officer, that's terrible am i getting arrested for wattage use?





umm, hello...I pay my bill. I can use as much electric as i can afford to pay for. Anytime. Ever.
Same for everyone else here in the US of A

Don't think I'm being mean,I just got a good giggle from this.
Do some research. In some places, the electric companies work with the local police department. A spike and major increase in electricity use = information handed to the police. It's happened before. They won't "arrest you for wattage" they'll find a reason to look around, and possibly get a warrant. Then, Guess what? They find the fucking pot you're growing.
