seriously I couldn't even get lightning to strike a kite I was flying in the middle of a thunderstorm. Ben Franklin was like rolling in his grave laughing

all that happened is I lost the kite.

I didn't find it amusing. that was $15 that just blew away. I will say it did make it for 20 minutes in the storm. lightning stuck everything but the kite and me.

I did however challenge death, and walked away again. just like women, not even death wants me.

Well, unlike women, God must have a purpose to keep you alive... Wait, did you remember to attach a key?

please, you don't need a key. all you need is to be well grounded. since it was raining. the kite with string and me touching the ground provided a very good path to ground for the lightning strike,

guess i will have to wait until someone pulls a gun on me to try and rob me so i can laugh in his face and call him a wimp that won't shoot.

Wisebeardman, I don't like imagining that. It's not amusing to me either.
