Last Week's Lightning

Written and Photographed By Jeremiah@smalldog.com – posted by Ed.

‘Twas the night of the All-Star Game and everyone was set,
Not a person was leaving, for sure they would regret.

The channel was set and remote placed down,
In hopes that there would be some Home Runs thrown down.

The beers were chilled, no one would dare take.
While a slow moving thunderstorm, crept across the lake.

The volume level 48, and the focus on the screen,
Then from the sky, came a defining scream.

We looked out the window, and to our surprise,
The sky was throwing lightning bolts, in magnificent size.

I ran to the closet, without any hesitation,
To capture this moment, before it changed its destination.

75 if took, before this one came out,
First Lightning picture ever, more to come no doubt.

  • Our Alltop Info Center

    It can be daunting to try to stay on top of the endless flow of information available online. Among other tools, I use Google Reader, Socialite, and email alerts to stay on top of the topics that interest me. I recently started using “Alltop.com”:http://my.alltop.com/smalldogelectronics to help with this.

    Alltop says its purpose is to help you answer the question, “What’s happening?” in “all the topics” that interest you. They do this by collecting the headlines of the latest stories from the best sites and blogs that cover a topic. They then group these collections — “aggregations” — into individual web pages. Then they display the five most recent headlines of the information sources as well as their first paragraph.

    We created an Alltop so we could stay on top of the latest Apple news. Many of us make it habit to get to work and fire up our page first thing in the morning. Click here to see our Apple-news themed Alltop page, or to create your own! “Alltop.com”:http://my.alltop.com/smalldogelectronics
