When I was young (7 or 8) I would believe that everytime it rained that God was having a little party w/ his friends in heaven and were bowling (don't ask) anyways whenever it would thunder i would always believe that God got a strike and the bowling pins made the crashing sound. And when lighting stiked that was the floors surface splitting for a second whenever a bowling ball hit the floor to hard at the bowling alley. i was a very imagative kid!
