aurora borealis

Sunday, November 7th, 2004

I just confirmed with the Solar Terrestrial Activity Report that there has indeed been quite a bit of solar activity which explains WHY I WENT CRAZY looking up at the Michigan sky around 10pm local time. I was looking at the Northern Lights! I tried to capture some video and images but my photographic equipment isn’t suited for such tasks. The good news is that due to other coronial ejections the increase in aurora activity will last through tomorrow.

Sky Captain Redeux

Sunday, November 7th, 2004

I was asksed by a friend recently what I thought of Sky Captain. In short I said I loved it. I said it was one of my favorite films of all time. No Joke. Why? Whole lotta reasons. More on that later. I ended up explaining that I was also lucky enough to see a sneek preview of the film in Austin, Texas (one of my former haunts) thanks to Harry Knowles and AintItCoolNews.com. Photos from the adventure can be found here.
