It’s times like this… when I’m sitting here and the world outside goes from bright and sunny to dark as night in an instant… when a terrible torrential Tampa tunderstorm erupts out of nowhere… when the lightning smacks so close that the sound and the fury are simultaneous… when I can actually see the raw power of Mother Nature… it’s times like this that I think I should buy a back-up power supply for Bud.

I guess I really should say something about the fact that last night it rained the most and the hardest and the craziest and the lightningest that is has here in at least two years. It was an amazing downpour. It was biblical. Did I mention that the block of condos behind mine – like 20 feet behind mine – was struck by a wayward bolt from the clouds, burst into flames, and burned like a volcano for several hours?
