Weird Sky Anomaly or Santa's Workshop Door?

Since Da-da loves sky phenomena and toys flying into his head, here's the latest bizarro event, video'd in the arctic near a toy mining facility this week. Apparently, it happens all the time and the multiple witnesses weren't fazed... which seems stranger than the actual phenomena. The below video has various views.



So... could the portal to Santa's Workshop have been found? COULD SANTA BE...

He's actually supposed to be very a very sweet man.

UPDATE: Could the above light columns be related to the light column anomalies recently seen in Japan?

Whoa.

Da-da wrote about these back on August 24th (linky), and he's since learned that these are apparently supposed to be a very good sign of peace and light to come, unicorns notwithstanding -- which is not to say that Santa is coming to your town, unless you're good, for goodness sake...

3/8/11 to Live in Infamy? (or, ALL YOUR BASE ARE STILL BELONG TO US)

Alan Shepard wonders, Why do I suddenly feel like a Moon Pie?

That's right, citizens: tomorrow's the day -- AGAIN. Some other closet Nostradamus has hatched another alien-apppearance deadline, claiming tomorrow will see wall-to-wall motherships over major metros, yay. And won't your metro's real estate agents still WEEP like little girls when your skies aren't packed with flying mile-long Vogon fleets, like Da-da's? Wish they'd hurry up.

Hey! You can't park that there!

Happy UFO/Lunar Solstice

Here's wishing we're all abducted and PROBED this solstice (I so need a good probing). Maybe the aliens can get Bronko and Nagurski to eat their liver and plomeek chili. Anyway, we'll see all of you -- YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE -- at the upcoming UFO show of force over Moscow in January, 2011, and then in London a week later. Not surprising choices, given the ostrichesque state of the U.S. media. We'll also be seeing you at the huge alien landing in December, 2012. Or failing that, a UFO Chili Cook-off. (Da-da would encourage you to enter, but he's already slept with all the judges: that is, with Da-da; Da-da sleeps with himself all the time.)

Additionally, for you loonies, there will be the first and only lunar eclipse for 2010 last night and this morning. The last time Da-da "enjoyed" a lunar eclipse, he fell asleep on the roof and woke up half-frozen. I'd rather kiss a space Santa. Or wait for grunion to run. Luckily, it's raining here. Note: According to Geoff Chester of the US Naval Observatory, "Since Year 1, I can only find one previous instance of an eclipse matching the same calendar date as the solstice, and that is Dec. 21, 1638. Fortunately we won't have to wait 372 years for the next one... that will be on Dec. 21, 2094."

Whatever. Da-da'll be asleep on the roof. With an umbrella. So it goes...
