Sounded like the end-of-our-little-corner of the world this morning. Real nasty thunderstorm around 6 a.m. followed by a large house-shaking boom. Lighning hit an oil tank battery on the edge of town -- looked like Beirut airport a couple of weeks ago. Six tanks and assorted equipment -- One is gone the others burnt badly. Course sounds like a normal day in Baghdad!

Hmmm...they keep that kind of stuff up and I'll feel right at home when I arrive there in a couple of weeks. I'll sleep like a baby with all of those comforting, familiar noises around me. ;-)
