Mysterious Power Cuts

We have been having mysterious power cuts at home. What makes them mysterious? Well they're power cuts - power cuts are always mysterious aren't they?

Our house is a bit isolated so it's easy to get paranoid. I wouldn't be paranoid if it wasn't for the fact that everyone in the entire world is out to get me. But there are some more specific things that are strange about the power cuts too.

Firstly the power cuts always happen in fair weather, previously I've only ever known them happen in stormy weather when you can assume that a tree has blown over and broken a power line or something.

Related to the fair weather, is the fact that the power cuts only last about two minutes or even less. If there was a proper old fashioned power cut from the olden days, which I have based my entire knowledge of power cuts on, the power would be out for hours and we would definately need to find some candles.

Another thing is that the street lights go out at the same time. On the basis of a half remembered facts from years ago, I thought that street lights were on a completely different circuit and it would be impossible for both our house and the street lights to go out. So that, and all of these reasons, make me suspicious.

There can only be one explanation - I just don't know what it is.
But it could be one of these:

[A] - We are going to be attacked by living humans.
(1) We are going to be attacked by baddies who are very organised and well equipped baddies (like off of Spooks or 24 or one of the Tom Clancy books or films)
(i) They are attacking us because they have mistaken us for someone else who knows something or is a goodie spy.
(ii) We have not been mistaken for goodie spies or people who know something, but we do know something or we are spies. Either my wife knows something and hasn't told me, maybe she's a sleeper? Or maybe I know something and I didn't realise how important it was at the time I learned it. I don't think I am a spy though - if I am I'm a sleeper in a very deep sleep.

(2) We are going to be attacked by goodies. These could be CIA, MI5 or MI6 or maybe some maverick goodie who's had their licence revoked or been double crossed by a mole in their ranks
(i) We are about to be attacked because we've been mistaken for baddies - maybe they'll torture us because they know we know something, but we don't know anything. But people who know things would say that wouldn't they, so they'll keep torturing us and oh what a pickle we'd be in then. In the end they'd have to kill us because if nothing else we'd be witness to a terrible injustice.
(ii) We're going to get attacked because we are baddies - in fact see [A](1)(ii) above, the implications are similar.

[B] Ghosts are causing the power cuts

(1) Trapped souls are lurking about - like on 'The Others' [SPOILER] they don't know they're dead (come on you must've seen that film by now).
These types would be causing power failures and surges without even realising it I reckon. They would probably be nice ghosts - I don't mind them until they start moving my tea bags.

(2) Malevolent mischievous conscious ones - like those ones who are a bit nasty to TV's Yvette Fielding from Most Haunted (especially back in the day when Derek Acorah was there being really horrible to her - funny how when she got rid of Derek the nasty, woman hating ghosts didn't seem to come so often).
Ghosts seems to like the dark better don't they? So they would want to turn the lights out so they can bump things and make shapes in the shadows and spook us out. That would be yet another plausible explanation to add to our list.

[C] Aliens

Fucking Aliens again! I knew it. There is no other explanation. We live next door to a corn field where they like to make circles, another neighbouring field has cows in it, we know aliens like to molest cows. In fact the aliens were probably trying to get the lighting right for a bit of cow loving, dirty bastards. Well case solved. At least they're not after me and from the look of those cows, they like it. You should see how erect their teats are.

Anyway these power cuts are putting the willies up me (there's a new theory - someone is causing power cuts so they can put willies up me - I bet it's the aliens, dirty, dirty aliens).
