1. Las Vegas recharging
If you've ever driven through the Nevada or northern Arizona desert at night, you can see the glow from LV many, many miles away.

5. God must hate discount shopping too,
because yesterday when I was in a local warehouse/salvage type business, lightning struck the roof, causing it to rupture so that rain started pouring in like a waterfall, quickly creating a lake which extended to the back of the massive building, and then the power went out so we found ourselves in darkness. Cool. Customers were ushered out the front doors, being first allowed to make their purchases however. Why doesn't god want me to buy those totally cool skirts, t-shirts and sequined halter, all for under $10.00?
