It’s the Polar Vortex!… (Again…)

If you are watching from anywhere east of Seattle, Washington, I hope you have caulked your windows, stocked your soup cupboard and have picked out which obese relative to slice open and crawl inside of for warmth.

I am a being of Heaven and Earth, of thunder and lightning, of rain and wind, of the galaxies.

Eden Ahbez

And when I breathed, my breath was lightning.

It’s worth the 7 minutes to switch to full screen and watch Stormscapes.  If there are pauses switch out of HD (Click the HD) on the menu bar.  Let me know what you think.

After a storm comes a calm.

Matthew Henry

The trouble ain't that there is too many fools, but that the lightning ain't distributed right.

Mark Twain

Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and babble
Double, double, toil and trouble,
Fire burn, and caldron bubble
William Shakespeare

Happy Halloween
