3. I had a lightning bolt touch down closer that once.
I was sitting in the den of my mom's house during a thunderstorm that was even nastier than the usual Florida summer variety. Lightning bolt hit the pool about 40 feet away. I barely even remember the bolt-just a blue-white flash, there and gone in an instant like any other, but I sure as hell remember the thunderclap. Loudest thing I've ever heard. Jet engines and rock concerts didn't hold a candle to it.

7. A girl got hit by lighting at a concert I was at once.
It sounded like a bomb. People actually went running.

11. That is a cool photo!
We had some gnarly thunderstorms come through around 8PM last night. The little one had a difficult time going to sleep.

12. I love thunderstorms.
So violent and beautiful at the same time. I'm sorry your kid had trouble sleeping, though. :(

13. I also like T-Storms
I just hate it when they come through when the kiddos are trying to go to sleep.

14. Looks like the Almighty's aim was a tad off there.
Wouldn't Bush be a little way off to the side in the White House? :shrug:
