not my video, but this was shot about 100m from where I was parked.
Dorothy, click your heels three times and say there is no place like home.
I was supposed to be in Switzerland tonight and instead I'm at home because of the volcano thing and the airports closed in northern Europe.
Things are going really bad lately, lots of earthquakes, volcanoes and now even tornado in Portugal.
The other day I saw a documentary about the earth's magnetic poles switch, which seems that's gonna happen at some point.
I think I need to call the OMG cat here:

Why do folks with bloody iPhones insist on hold the freaking device in the vertical "portrait" orientation, and not the standard horizontal "landscape" orientation... Sad apple eaters..!!!! oowww look, my phone is smart enough to rotate the video if I hold the device vertically... SO BLOODY WHAT... you don't see shows on you TV in 9:16, or movies at the theater in 9:21, do you... get off the eff'ing fruit and capture a video like everybody else..!!!!

Sorry, I had to get that out... it's like folks that say "backslash" in a URL... it's a bloody slash, and slash only...

So maybe my beef should be with YouTube for not providing for the sideways frame... But then again, YT is owned by the mighty Goog, and I drink the Android koolaid... I guess I'm just SOL... Wink
Freaky!

Well, it's the end of the world, didn't you get memo? Watch the documentary (it's called 2012 or something). And watch out for the Second Coming.

May the Flying Spaghetti Monster be with us all.

I can live with "forward slash" or even "foreslash"... I prefer just slash...
