Oh, I forgot to mention that four other UPS trucks parked nearby, but across the lot, had glass damaged and some large dents in the aluminum bodies, also.
It is like when Gabriel took my arm up and broke it to save my head from being crushed and put the bat in my other hand so I would have the advantage over the punk that swung at me and the sense to know that another was about to hit me.
I don't want to be like some crazy-assed mystic, but how can I explain these things in a way that satisfies my intelligence, except by some type of intervention from a plane outside of this world.
Nevermind. I don't really expect anyone who has not met Gabriel to understand much of this. It does seem odd though, doesn't it!??
Her car is fine and two others are nearly totaled and five others have massive damage, while hers sat protected in between them all.
I have never met Gabriel, but I thought that you must have a guardian angel or something after you came out OK except for your broken arm when you interrupted that robbery of your neighbor. It could have been your head that was broken and I was very glad it wasn't. BTW, did you have any more legal trouble over defending yourself against those punks?
No, the reporting officers (possibly influenced by my neighbor, one block away, who is on the police force) made sure that it all "went away." On their second visit to my house a week later, the police presented me with a legal writ of some fancy title, which declared that I was to be held harmless for my actions in the eyes of the court by the state's attorney. I know I mentioned before that this all "went away", but so much was going on right then, I may have left some things out.
I was back to work by then and struggling to try to find a way to do my job with a cast on my arm. Even though it was a soft cast, it was very confining and I was doing my absolute best to not move it at all.
Her car being in the middle, essentially, could explain why it had less damage as it may have been subjected to less wind force behind the hail as it fell. It is also possible that the exact location of her car coincided with a slightly weaker patch of hail that had been released by the storm. A lot of physics and variables to take into account with hail dropping from so far up during a storm. Sorry, but there are plenty of explanations. This is not that uncommon during storms.
Yeah, but I feel drama from all this. Don't take it away from me!
:lol:
Some things just can't be explained. Better
On the other hand, it is totally possible, as Trig has alluded to, that there just happened to be a lucky hole in the storm, centered over my wife's car as the powerful whipping storm rushed by. It only took about twenty minutes for all that damage to happen so the hole in the storm would not have to last very long, in the grand scheme of things. Since the storm was moving so quickly, the hole in the storm would not have needed to spend very much time at all in any one part of the turbulence, either, because the patch of severe weather was over thirty miles long and about two miles wide. Hell it only makes sense that there could be enough room inside a frontal boundary of that size for several similar holes in the storm. I just wonder how many of those holes in the storm stayed in the same geographic pinpoint throughout the entire storm, though. In all seriousness, the cars near hers were actually several feet away from her car and so the hole in the storm I am imagining would not need to be large at all, when compared to the size of the storm, nor would there have been any reason for the hole in the storm to develop a well defined edge or anything, having four or five feet of wiggle-room between her car and the next, but it would have to be a fairly stable hole in the storm, somewhat capable of ignoring the wind force, in order to stay that close to her car, while those cars around hers were pummeled by balls of ice from all directions.
Hell, it makes about as much sense as the cupped hands of Gabriel protecting her car from damage, in some mysterious, other-worldly way that can not be explained so simply.
