ON this date in 1953 - Iranian Premier Mossadegh demanded that the shah's power be reduced.
Local enforcers Bun Man and Mr. Purple were on it.
The Boyz go down to the local power grid station and tell the head operator, the Shah's palace is now down to 50% power.
The operator understood and implemented the drawdown.

The Boyz, flush w/ positive vibrations, rushed to tell the Premier what they had accomplished.
When informed, Mossadegh suddenly whirled around and said, "Executive power, not electrical power, you twits!!"
Mr. Purple, who decided to take the hit for this one, replied "Mr. Premier dude, you need to work on your English..."
Whereupon the Premier whirled around again and fell down, proving once again, power corrupts, or at the very least, it makes you dizzy...
