For breakfast, he reaches for a box of cereal which is open and upside down. All the contents spill out, leaving him to sweep up the mess.

Well, you get the idea. Mishap after mishap until he returns home to find an envelope at his door which contains his customized power plan from Edison. Finally something good he can count on.
He goes out to celebrate at a restaurant. However, the tablecloth is tucked in his pants and when he gets up–well, you know the rest.
