Oh, WOW.

I wondered what woke me up.

There was this big flash and a whooshing sound and steam was coming off of the pool when I went outside to look.

Not exactly.

It is in the front yard. I took it out of the truck to haul something.

Priorities, you know.

Cool post, but it looks like the article is from December 5th of last year. I'm not sure if the comet is still visible.
