Very, very frightening

We had a thunderstorm on Friday. The thunder was so loud that at one point I actually jumped off my chair in fright at the noise. At the same time lightening hit our street and knocked out the cable. It fried most of Andrew's computing equipment and meant we haven't had internet for quite some time. Time Warner said they would repair the cable connection yesterday between 8am-8pm. So we stayed home and guess what time they arrived? 7:55pm! Now Andrew is doing an inventory of all the broken pieces of electronics. This happened to us in Sydney as well. Is this co-incidence or are his electronics attracting lightening? Now we have internet and TV but I am way behind on blogging so there won't be much this week unless one little boy decides to have some good naps.
