Engine cut out while driving!

Driving to work today I had 2 moments where the car seemed to lose electrical power for a split second and the engine cut out. The car seemed to regain power a split second later and the engine came back on. I've had the car a year and it's never done this before. Has anyone ever heard of /experienced this?

Update: loose battery cable, probably from when I moved the batt to replace my high beam bulbs.

I was going to say I had heard of that happening with the ignition switch recall that was issued for my car. Glad you got it fixed though.
