Quite a storm last night. The lightning was better than fireworks and the thunder much louder than any man-made report. No firework display I ever saw produced such strong winds, either. I suspect firemen all over the Metro sent up prayers of thanksgiving.

Sinatra and I watched from under my eaves but he bravely went inside to make sure all was well under the bed when the sky boomed and rattled the windows. The first wave of wind and hard rain caught him outside unprepared. It was, of course, all my fault he got so wet. Is there any wet food? Dry me off now so I can go look.
Sure glad he was around to help.

Update:
This makes me feel more secure:

The Conservative MP Patrick Mercer, who chairs the counter-terrorism sub-committee, said the mistake had left the Sawers family “extremely vulnerable”. Referring to Miliband’s suggestion that the incident was not significant, Mercer said: “If that is the case why has the site being taken down?” He also pointed out that military chiefs had warned that the Taliban get 80% of their intelligence from Twitter and Facebook.

Anyone who gets eighty percent of their intelligece from Twitter and/or Facebook is a foe I think can be outsmarted.
