*Kelly O says she also had the bejeesus scared out of her, but when she looked at the clock it was 4:44. We live about six blocks apart. Separate giant thunder? Spooky time warp?? THE NUMBER FOUR BEGINNING ITS GLOBAL TAKEOVER???
**Yes, I am currently knocking on wood.

I saw the lightning at 4:40 or so…I was on my morning run down to Greenlake at that time. Cool, wet and quiet. BRILLIANT time for a run!!
