A quote from Dave Attell of "insomniac" that somehow seems fitting. Apparently he was struck outside a nightclub. He observes....

" Some people think that if you get struck by lightning you will get super powers, like the ability to shoot lightning out of your fingers or something...... I got the power to S**t my pants and shake on the ground, will I use it for good or evil....stay tuned.."

Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back.
