I guess lighting can strike in the same place twice, if it really, really wants to.

You know, the first time you get an attempted ( ) electrocution standing on a hill holding an umbrella, maybe that would clue you in to NOT DOING THAT. That is pretty funny, though. [ October 24, 2003, 05:39 PM: Message edited by: TheTick ]

Am I the only one here who find this deeply Shocking? (Or am I the only one here with the guts to make that comment?)

sorry - pet peeve correction: It's not ELECTROCUTED, TheTick. The word electrocuted means they DIED in the shock. Fatal. Always It is just "electrical shock" if they survive. Farmgirl

This is an excellent story to tell to uninformed people. It is the sheer improbability mixed with the irony...

I stand corrected, although I'm curious how the misuse of such a rarely used word could become a pet peeve. It would be quite a shock to me that you would be exposed to electrocution so much.

Ayelar, before I degenerate into electrical puns, thanks for linking that, it is one freaky story! I don't think you have the capacitance to understand, Tick.
