I remember my dad telling a story of when he was about 6 years old. His parents had a silver aluminum Christmas tree they’d put up, and a color wheel with a large bulb (100W I’d guess) just like the one pictured to light the tree up. One day he was messing around in the living room and knocked the color wheel over while it was on, causing the bulb to melt a hole in the carpet. He reminisced about how he got an ass beating for Christmas that year. Which has nothing to do with the northern lights, but seeing that color wheel made me think of that story for the first time in years. Dammit, I miss my old man.
Well, he’s doing a shitty job. We can’t see them from here.
Can we get a franchise in the South?

He can go on break now, it’s about done being dark for a few months.
