OMG, and don't think my Dad wasn't telling me a similar story when I went to pick get my dogs today.

"It's just like this girl in New York last week. Did you hear about this? She was walking down the street, and a TREE fell on her. DEAD. Just like that. Unbelievable."

Now I want to google to see if that really happened. ;) ETA: Jesus Zombie Christ, he's right again. It was in CT though. O_o
