Well, last night on "Unscrewed" (tv show on "Tech TV") they were talking about the "Mystery Spot"... But I missed the 6:00 news, Tom Brockaw was supposed to talk about the Oregon Vortex. Damn, oh well.

The aurora is timed just right...I was out photographing some around here a couple of nights ago, and it was just green, the whole half of the sky glowing green....And, of course, keeping up to date with the game, and my daughter watching Matrix Reloaded over and over, it did feel kinda weird...

She only watches the Burly Brawl, Chateau fight and the Car Chase....DVD is a wonderful thing! She has sat through the whole original Matrix though, and she gets it. She's 4!

I asked her, but her answer was chocolate. Either she's cleverer than I am and she sees some abstract connection, or she's just 4....

Wait... what are those dots in the sky? Maybe we could overlay this with the Congrats picture and maybe find something... If we invert the gamma of the image, maybe we can find some hidden message. Anyone already tried stegano?
Or maybe it's me who needs some hours unplugged (read some good sleep)!
Oh, BTW, great shot!!!

Aw shucks, you're all too kind! LOL! (There's almost definitely no stegging involved, btw!)
