It must have been a full moon

Yes, I am here...I am alive.

A couple of random things from this past Friday filed under, "it must have been a full moon (or close to it):"

-Friday during the day, I hear lots of commotion coming from the lower floor of my office building. It sounded as though a man had come to confront someone at their workplace about an affair or something, but it ended up being much worse.

I discovered a naked man in the lobby telling people that Jesus had told him to come kill them. A little while earlier (and while clothed), he had stopped a girl out in the middle of the road and jumped on the hood of her car. She (in such a beatiful fashion), proceeded to head toward the grass and slam on her brakes. He fell off, and she sped off.

He was subdued by a security firm that resides on our first floor and tied a raincoat around his waste. When asked what his name was, his reply was, "God."

Someone mentioned that he must have gotten some "bad stuff," when another coworker chimed in with, "or some really good stuff."

-I went to the final "Faith night" at Greer Stadium on Friday night. The show ended with a fireworks display. I was amazed to see the stadium almost completely full. This was partially due to a blitz campaign by the Sounds' ticket office to get as many tickets out there as possible. ABC News was visiting, you know.

After the game, the traditional fireworks display was held. At the very end, a big explosion rocked the stands past the first base line in the outfield. Apparently a sort-of squib round had fallen into the stands and exploded. I don't think that anyone was seriously hurt (I didn't see it mentioned in the news anywhere), but the fire department and a couple of ambulances arrived.

It should also be noted that immediately after the explosion, every lawyer at the game went over to make sure someone was hurt.

CreativeLiberty has more on the explosion.
