It depends on where you live. Up in Colorado, most of the time, we got rain in thunderstorms, so yeah, the two are connected. Here in Texas, it can just rain for 3 days with no sign of lightning.

Meanwhile, I've never shaved my legs. And I've discovered that nobody really cares. If cute women start telling me "Gosh, your legs would look so much more manly if you shaved them", I reserve the right to reconsider. But as is, each hair is that much less pasty white skin they have to look at, and if I was just furred over altogether, that'd likely be an improvement.
