Snow Thunder?

So I hear someone mention this today at work and thought it was a made up term. Id never heard of Snow Thunder. My thought was that we dont call it Rain Thunder, its just called Thunder. but after a brief moment of research I found out it indeed is a real term. Snow Thunder. I also found out that wintertime lightning is much m ore dangerous than summertime lightning due to the fact that the strikes in winter carry a much stronger current.

IlloFriday: Blue


So this weeks topic is blue, and holy crap I have one finished and its only Tuesday! WooHoo. For this piece, I decide to just play around with some images and some brushes in photoshop. I had this great photo of my youngest sister Chana that I really wanted to incorporate. Im on the fence about it right now, I think if I play around with it some more it will flow more smoothly. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Im sure Chana will throw in her two cents ;)

Walk the Line


So if you havent seen it yet, you need to! In fact, go right now. This is one of the best movies ive seen in a while. Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon did an absolutely fantastic job with this movie, not to mention the fact that they did all their own singing. I just cant stop applauding this movie. Ill be picking this one up as soon as it comes out on DVD.

Whats your pilot say?

So you know your plane has landed in Florida when the pilot says this..."Ok folks, shouldn't be much longer now, were just a 7 iron from the gate." There obviously wasnt a lot of golfers on my flight because there was only a chuckle or two, including my own. The best part though was listening to the lady behind me ask her husband what he meant followed by him explaining it. This incident reminds me of the time I was flying back to Boston and a big Red Sox game was on and the pilot would chime in over the intercom and tell us the weather, what we were flying over, followed by the score of the game and a "Go Red Sox". Cant wait to hear what the pilot will have to say on my next flight.
