Lightning near Lincoln Town Car may affect electronics
Shannon asks if a nearby lightning strike could affect a 2001 Lincoln Town Car. Experts suggest a proximate strike can energize a headlight relay or damage other electronics without a direct hit, recommending checking lights, blinkers, and accessories, replacing a melted relay, and testing for wiring or computer damage while noting possible costly repairs.

Choosing a pet bird fits your lifestyle and space
A Texas A&M veterinary expert advises that bird size should match daily routine, with smaller birds like budgies or cockatiels for busy apartments and larger parrots for more time and quiet surroundings. Proper diet, cage size, exercise, and regular veterinary care extend lifespan from 7 to 80 years, while diseases like Chlamydophila psittaci pose human risk.
