I recalled my own experiences with lightnings.

July 1980--I went to Salt Fork lodge in Cambridge, Ohio with my family members. I sat on the wooden picnic bench and I decided to move my right leg together. Suddenly, the lightning bolt zapped on the bench where my right leg was originally on. I noticed something odd...it was bleeding..I found it impossible!! I did not get hurt or shock physically.

Spring of 1986--I rode my bike to a local school where softball game was started. The school was about 3 miles away from my home. When I arrived there for a short time because I noticed black clouds, so I knew it would rain hard. I had to ride my bike back home, somehow, I was on the way back to home, it rained so hard!! Then, the hail balls dropped furiously at me... it was huge ball.. of course, it hit me hard!! I was closer to home, finally the lightning bolt almost zapped me on my bike!! I could say maybe 2-3 feet!! Of course, I was all wet plus my new hearing aids were dead on me!! My dad got pissed off!! LOL

Oct. 1998--Tucson, AZ I went to Taco Bell on the corner of E. 22nd St. and Alvernon Way. After I got mexican pizza order, I came out, going to my car outside..well, it was moonsoon and thunderstorm in Tucson....when I entered into my good Toyota Corolla car, somehow, the lightning bolt zapped on the top of my car. I was like oh, geez.. not again!!

I sense that it will happen to me in the future... I can say this...

TO BE CONTINUED....:shock:
