    I was at the stop sign at Portage Ave & Samuelson in Portage when the transformer just west of the intersection was struck by lightning about 10:15 am. About 100 feet from me. :wow:

    Probably some folks without power.
    Lightning struck the transformer in front of my house a year or two ago. I was less than 50 feet away when it happened. The transformer turned cherry red and then burst. It was a sight to see, my heart almost skipped a beat

    Huge flash and bang - thunder shook my car, no obvious damage. Went by same area 45 minutes later and nothing going on. :dunno:

    FBI involved most likely underage porn images.
    My thought as well. However, my wife doesn't recall seeing anyone in shackles or any computer stuff getting hauled out of the house. Of course, it's possible that she may have missed it.

    I guess we are not supposed to take Jedi out to the woods?

    What my takeaway from that is that you consider Jedi a friend.

    You don't have to push anyone you can outrun.

    General announcement: If anybody is looking to schedule lawn service, tree treatments, or landscaping work this year, I just posted a big annual mailing for a good client who operates out of Crown Point. We posted over 100k 8x12 postcards to 19 zip codes, so some of you should get one Tuesday or Wednesday. If it has Schererville permit #17 in the bulk mail box, that's the one.

    I only mention this because they must be very good at what they do, judging by their success.

    And before anyone mentions junk mail, I'll say that these type of mailings support actual local companies, who employ actual local peoples, in this case more than 30 local peoples.
