Nathan can't post because the anonymous option isn't an option so he wanted me to do it.
He says that the incidents are related because it all happened to the same person.
And Natey is right on the money.
U.S. Park Ranger Roy Sullivan was struck by lightning seven times during his life, and it's reported that he eventually thought a "higher power" was trying to kill him.
Sorry about the non-anon thing, but it seems to work to keep the spammers away.
