Why are you running around in the dark taking photos...

I get a lot of questions like that.

Well... just because... something like this when a car passes ;-)

Michael Jackson was a 7...

ok. I am not much into the big media hype and stuff like that.

But like it was with the presidents Kennedy and Lincoln there are a few things indicating that Michael Jackson was a 7...

A few facts to base it on:
- Michael Jackson signed his will on 7/7/02.
- Michael Jackson's memorial was on 7/7/09 ... exactly 7 years after the will was signed.
- Michael Jackson's two biggest hits -- "Black & White" and "Billie Jean", were each #1 for 7 weeks.
- Michael Jackson's three biggest albums -- "Thriller," "Bad" and "Dangerous", each produced 7 top 40 hits.
- Michael Jackson was the 7th of 9 children.
- Michael Jackson was born in 1958 ... 19 + 58 = 77
- Michael Jackson died on the 25th ... 2 + 5 = 7
- Michael Jackson has 7 letters in his first and last name.

well you be the judge but 7 does seem to be present there...

Air safety

The ones that have been on a plane have probably seen the safety demonstrations video or "live". After a couple of times not many pay attention to it though.

To "combat" that and make sure people pay attention New Zealand Air has come up with a new video. The pilot, pursers and crew goes bare and wears nothing but body paint...

Family photos...

So I did fall behind on the uploading of family photos...
Just a little bit... Since March that is..

Here are all family photos that I finally got uploaded:





It will pass

Sometimes weird weather happens. Even in the northern Virginia where we reside.
A Friday evening where we sat down to watch a kids movie I noticed that the light outside was kind of weird looking. This orange/yellowish glow



I know it can look like I just got the color balance way off or something like that. But the color of the sky was really orange and kind of weird looking.



At the same time as the colors were all off from the usual heavy clouds were coming in and it was getting darker fast.



ok so I did zoom at the same time as taking this photo... but kind of cool and taking advantage of the funky colors.



Doesn't this just look bouncy...



As it was getting darker the sky turned more purple...



And we got a little thunder and lightning. But as usual it stayed clear of Warrenton with the Warrenton split that cause the weather forecast to be wrong about 90% of the time.
