The only thing that could have made that more awesome is if it had been a gay sex line. Because Charlie Crist directing people to gay sex=searingly funny irony!

Yeah, I know. I don't quite get it.

I guess if someone told me they were christian and I worked retail I might wish them a merry christmas.

Depends on my mood, I guess. Otherwise I'd remind them that christmas is included in the happy holidays.

And if I'm really feeling off, tell 'em I celebrate the solstice as a pagan.

This takes my screen name to a whole different level.

I'm guessing it's an artwork somewhere. I don't recall seeing them in K-mart.

You're probably looking in the wrong departments

Strange Lights Over Norway

The first two photos totally look "enhanced" with an effect, but the only explanation I have for the others and the video is that it's most like a test missile that exploded. There are many more articles with photos and videos too.

Phil Plait (www.badastronomer.com) gave his take on it this morning. He agrees it is a rocket spiraling out of control.

Looking at the videos, you can see the effect being projected into the sky from the ground. There is a conical beam of light starting from a small point on the ground.

I wonder if this could also be an interesting contributing factor...
