2561 - Lightning up

Do you go inside when the lightning starts firing up? I try too. But that reminds me of a scary story from 30 years ago.

I was playing softball and a storm was coming in. There I am standing in the outfield looking up at cloud to cloud lightning directly overhead. Both teams are hollering at the ump to call the game. But no, the ump won't get paid if he calls the game. And neither team wanted to be the team that walked off the field and forfeited the game. So we kept on playing until it started raining hard. THEN the game was called.

I hope I'm smarter than that these days.

Here are some cool pictures of lightning tattoos on the survivors of lightning strikes.
