What do you think of it?

the song is "Wizard in Winter" by the Trans Siberian Orchestra
and here's what I found on the home owner.
This display got itself a spot on NBC's "Today" with Matt Lauer. The man responsible for this is a guy named Carson Williams of Mason, Ohio. An engineer, he started setting up the lights just after Halloween. The show runs between 6:00 pm - 10:00 p.m.
I think it's a remarkable feat of engineering

If this were my neighbor, I wouldn't mind. I'd make hot cocoa and cookies for those that stand outside to watch the display.
Well, apparently this IS real. It was on one of those fluff TV shows, like Inside Hollywood or something. The guy spends an addition 150.00 per month on power usage.

Well put James. Clark would be proud.
I can believe that the owner of the house starts putting up lights after Halloween. I started the week before Thanksgiving, as I decorate the FRONT and BACK of our house as there is a street directly behind our house. Watching National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is my incentive to get it done. However, our house is a static display ... the electric company here likes us, I suppose. (I think I would be too tacky to include pictures.) After I finish, it's on to watching A Christmas Story (about Ralphie and Red Rider Rifle.) I received Jean Shepherd's In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash for Christmas which is the book on which the movie is based. Great reading!
While I am here, I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year. All the best to everyone.

Has anyone seen the Miller Lite commercial?
I was all like "Check this out honey! This light show is kind of cool, but a little over done."
And my husband was all like "uh huh"
And I was all like "Seriously, I learned about this light show on the USMS discussion forum."
And he was all like "uh huh"
And I was all like "Can you believe I learned about a Christmas light show on a swimming website?"
And he was all like "uh huh"
And I was all like "Swimmers are sooooo cool!"
And he was all like "uh huh"
