We had a near tragedy here at the computer yesterday. We had thunderstorms moving through the area.

Durning one of my Internet runs, a flash of lightning hit a telephone and lit up the phone in the living room.

It came near close to ruining our modem.

Thankfully no harm or foul and the modem and everything is working OK.

Whoa! Good thing you weren't on the phone. I had my television ruined by lightning a few years back. It still worked but the color was ruined.

Thanks the Lord for small miracles. :-)
