This is a test.
This afternoon, I am not making this up, our house took a HUGE lightening strike.
We lost, again I...
I’m not making this up
..two computers, one was my home network server.
...two TV’s.
...our garage door opener
...the ceiling fan in our living room will not turn off.
So I got this portable computer and it’s so old the only browser that will work with it is Opera.
You can’t make this stuff up.....
I have no idea why we lost the variety of thing we did and who knows what else we’ll find.
I heard this loud boom and all I can tell you, when you hear it you know what it is.
The two tv’s were little things but they were hook to our cable hookup. Two other tv’s are okay. They are hooked to another thing....whatever is used that can be recorded from.
The two computers were hooked to the cable as well. They were both ON. One computer, a major one, was off and it’s working fine.
The garage door opener? I can’t explain this except, hey, where that lightening hit, and I actually saw smoke, was right by the garage. In fact at first I thought our air conditioner took a hit.
The living room fan? It’s crazy. We figured out how to work around it but it’s a pain.
Also breakers blew and some of the individual electrical outlets have little circuit breaker things on them and some of THEN had to be reset.
Monday I’m going to talk to the insurance company but I wonder if they’ll ever believe this.
Oh man, that’s terrible. Glad you have Opera on that old computer - I can’t imagine being cutoff from the computer!
Our house took a lighting strike 2 yrs ago,lost an
old Dell,2 TVs all the phones,blew the overhang off and
it caught on fire,the heavy downpour put the fire out,
we had ceiling heat from an old TVA program,blew the ceilings out,broke a compleat dehavilland china set
Farmers around here do the same thing about the deer,myself included. Most people would too if they had that much money tied up in that crop.
Are you sure you’re not making that up?
