This is NOT what Ben Franklin had in mind when he invented the lightning rod, but I bet you top dollar if he had thought of it, he’d done it.  I mean, come on, he stood in the rain waiting for lighnting to strike a kite  he was holding.  The man had balls the size of the Liberty Bell.

I’ve been requested to slip in some of the men in cheese-cake poses, so I oblige those readers.  Jeff loves his t-shirts at night.  I also remember fondly the vareity of colors our “tidy-whiteys” came in back then.

The Lovin’ Spoonful is probably best known for their 1966 hit “Summer In The City” which was about other things then blowing up your backyard with M-80s hooked up to a lightning rod, but I felt it a good title just the same!  We always  had fun in the summer back then!  Why not?

PS: Yeah, don’t try this at home… we’re professional cartoonists here, so we know. 🙂
