i can’t say, “light-NING.”  i grew up in the south, man.  so if i ever say the “ing” part of a word i feel like i’m betraying my heritage.  it’s always “lightin.”  or “fishin” or “weddin.”  that’s just the way it is.  i mean, sometimes like if i’m in the phone with a customer support lady from india i have to say the “ing” cause she’ll have no idea what in the world i’m saying.  i mean – sayin.

miami has had some ca-raaazy lightnin this week.  this is from my room at the eden roc hotel.
