I don't recall my baby teeth ever having roots that long. Then again, my memory is shot to shit these days.
The roots actually get dissolved during the process of adult teeth growing through. It's called exfoliation apparently. |

Yeah, I could tell the instant I saw it since, well, you can only see that shit when its pitch black out. I still think its a cool pic though. Original is still amazing however.

Or you could go to APOD and see awesome real photos. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap120517.htmlDitto on the easy ID on the fake, you can't even see the galaxy from my house. I chuckle when my fiancee (a city girl) says 'What a nice night, look at all the stars!' A nice clear winter night at an adirondack cabin with no artificial light for twenty miles is my metric for a starry night. |

I've spent some time out in the middle of nowhere in Africa. Once you see it it becomes pretty obvious why people called it the milky way. Looks almost like someone spilled very pale milk across a swath of the sky. So many stars.
Also, meteors are fairly common. A few a night if you are out and about, who knew?

You call it an accident. I call it justice.

Never saw a shooting star before - until I drove back to Ohio from California on I-10 to avoid the snow seeing as it was late November. It was early morning around 1am out in the middle of no where west of Phoenix when I started seeing them... I have never been that awestruck before like that; heard about them, but once you see them... it is completely different.

I think it was back in 2001 when I was living up on the mountain, I saw the most awesome Leonids shower imaginable. Short of them actually impacting the ground nearby. Fireballs that lit up the night and covered half the sky. I had copped a joint off a friend for the occasion and was glad for it.
I've tried to watch a couple showers from my roof, but it's a waste of time in the city. A couple little spurts of light.

I was hiking around Twin Peaks during the Lyrids (completely coincidental, didn't know there was going to be a meteor shower that night) and while I was looking out and admiring the view, I saw a meteor that was big and close enough that I could see it breaking up into fragments. Pretty awesome. At the time I wasn't sure if it was a shooting star or if somebody was testing out their fireworks stash.

Yea, no. That's just fucking wrong.
I would never stuff a pet, would be way to creepy, but I sort of get why people might. But turning my pet in to a toy? No, that doesn't even warrant an amusing emoticon, it's just plain f'd up.

Hmm I think my humorometer must be broken because I raffed pretty hard. I'm sure a Smeagolcopter wouldn't even be able to get off the ground.

Creepy... but I'm also an RC Heli enthusiast so I admittedly did a few quick calculations to figure the cost of putting my 100lb. mastiff in the air. |
