Cat Emoji

3 Nantans, past and present, converged at Midoriyama during a wonderful summer time storm. The thunder was really booming while I was doing some EC rucking before hand. Being alone in the park gave way to some good reflection on how awesome thunder is. I figured it was going to be a light crowd due to the storm and even considered if anyone would show at all. I pondered on how many people get struck by lightning and yet we fear it so much. Oh its lightning outside we better run for cover! Do we only swim in the ocean when the sharks aren’t in the water? Do we only drive cars when no one else is on the road? Those things seem as equally or more dangerous. A quick search and I found that the odds of getting struck by lightning are 1 and a MILLION! Also 90% of those that are struck survive. That sounds to me like we’ve made ourselves a bunch of cat emojis. Anyway moving on.
