    Some of this makes me think she meant that in a good way. Some of this makes me think she did not.

    Until the tree falls on my house. But, yes, I like them. I really missed them when I lived in LA for a couple years.

    Best thunderstorms are out west where you can watch them coming from miles away. Out East, they sneak up on you and unless you’ve got a vista, don’t have much of a show.

    We had a hefty thunderstorm pass through overnight, which I mercifully slept through.
    Sleep has not been going well lately.

    Growing up in the hills we would hear them before we would see them, especially if I was out fishing with my buddies in the creek nearby.

    See, that's an interesting choice. I would have gone Humpty Hump and that tells us a lot. Mainly, that you're much more sophisticated than I am.

    Well. Except I did once get busy in a Burger King bathroom.

    Do you also like your oatmeal lumpy?

    That's crazy.

    Do you have your own dance?

    I use a word that don't mean nothing. Like "lupid."

    I can never spork you, MD, no matter how hard I try.

    This line made me - dare I say it - chortle. Audibly.

    Ditto. I heard it rain hard, b/c of the metal roof, but I apparently slept through some major thunder boomers last night.

    Can a chortle be inaudible?

    Digital Underground had some of the most amazing lyrics.

    As far as sporks - it's the thought that counts. Forward my sporks along to Humpty Hump. Or, alternatively, to Sir Nose, Devoid of Funk.

    I am beginning to think I could pick ClemmonsDevil out of a crowd.

    I especially liked thunderstorms when I was in the Navy and out at sea. One of my radar spaces (7 decks above the water line) had an overhang at the entrance hatch. It made for great viewing. If the storm got too severe, I could merely step inside and close the hatch. Fortunately, I never got seasick, as the waves tended to increase during storms. (My ship survived 1 hurricane and 2 tropical storms.)

    And Tupac was a backup singer. Lots to love.
