156. Lightning Bolt Enlightens Angler (1)
156. Rod was fishing. It started to rain. That didn't bother him. Then he saw lightning and heard thunder. That did bother him. He decided to pack up. Just then he got a bite. It felt like a big one! This was going to be fun. Whack! Lightning struck Rod. When he came to, he was in a hospital. A doctor said, "Nobody knows how or why you're alive.
