Okay, God, A Little to the North and Down About 200 Feet.
Lightning struck the state Capitol early Thursday morning, knocking out power in some places. State troopers were posted outside to make sure employees could get in after some key-card readers stopped working.
I’d be willing to bet my best pair of pink boots that God was aiming for Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick but that little sucker slithered away before the bolt hit the ground.
Just to be safe, I wouldn’t stand anywhere near Patrick without a lightning rod on my head.
