Still Waters Posted June 29, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Yard work almost turned deadly for a man hit by lightning in Coweta County. Sean O'Connor said he was raking leaves Saturday afternoon when a bolt of lightning came down and struck him in the right foot. "I heard the loud crack and next thing I know, I was over here on the side of my driveway," said O'Connor. http://www.wsbtv.com...-be-aliv/ngQdD/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandpa Greenman Posted June 29, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The odds of being stuck by lightning is a lot better then winning the lottery. Lightning can travel 10 miles and hit you. You won't even know there is a storm. My dog knows. though. I'll take her out and it will be bight and sunny and she will just say no way and want back in. I'll look at the local radar and a storm will be just starting to pop up. She is my lightning warning alarm. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Merton Posted June 29, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The Vietnamese have a folk belief that only evil people get struck by lightning, so during these storms we are beginning to get now that we are entering the rainy season people put on a brave face and act fearless. Sorry. I go indoors and stay away from windows and the telephone (no longer an issue actually as we got rid of our land lines) and plumbing fixtures. Even at that sometimes it gets so noisy I want to crawl under my bed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilly Posted June 29, 2014 #5 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Where you get the talking dog? Dogs don't really talk much...but they manage to get their point across none the less. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandpa Greenman Posted June 29, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Where you get the talking dog? I speak dog, but I'm not fluent in it yet. I am fluent in cat, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

:PsYKoTiC:BeHAvIoR: Posted July 2, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I am fluent in cat, though. Communicating with my cats is exactly like a hostage negotiation. *with megaphone* "If you retract your claws from the drapes, I'll let you have half my chicken dinner and I'll even throw a roll of toilet paper to shred. All I want is your happiness. It's not worth it by throwing it all away with an act of disobediance." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
