The biggest area news is a Mooresville woman who was struck by lightning. She says she feels blessed.
One would think that someone who had lived fifty years woulod have learned that holding onto a metal pole with one hand and another metal objecxt in the other hand during a thunder storm is a recipoe for disaster. I believe the truth is some people don't have fifty years of living but one years worth of leasrning fifty times.
Explain to me: how does surving doing something stupid make one blessed. It's like God slapped her upside the head and said "Wake up stupid." That does not make her blessed or lucky. If she were blessed or lucky she would not have been struck at all.. If she had been smart, she would have had the clog fixed before the storm if she knew about it, or after the storm if she just found out about it.
Now the woman is not only in the news but in a news video. It is rare for a person to be struck by lightning but unless it happened to me during a situation over which I had little or no control, I certainly wouldn't be proadcasting by facing claiming I'm blessed after committing an act of stupidity. And she claimed she learned something. Still thinks she's special. But she not.
