Must've been negative ...

A followup to our thoughts on "Positive Lightning," we came across this timely tidbit from across the state:

Oklahoma Man Shocked, Shocked by Lighning

Carl Mize was hit by lightning in storms August 5, but the electrical jolt is nothing new for him. This is the fourth time he's been struck.

Hwas was working with a crew on the University of Oklahoma campus when they saw storms approaching. A co-worker familiar with his history retreated, saying, "I'm getting away from you." The bolt struck soon after that.

Mize spent four days at Norman regional Hospital and he's well on the road to recovery. Other than complicating his heart condition and numbing his toes, Mize is apparently fine.

We're happy for him, but I feel no shame for my low profile move last Friday.
