I'm not sure what it means...

...when you're walking home after a loud and vicious thunderstorm, look up in the sky and see a huge, translucent, bright, perfect double rainbow, and think "Ooo, shiny!"...


...and then turn around to the opposite part of the sky and see a cloud formation in the exact shape of goatse.

I have cellphone photos, but a) they're crap, and b) I can't figure out how to upload them. Take my word for it, it was... odd.

I just hope it's not Mother Nature giving you a kiss before a BOHICA episode.

That was the original internal code name for one of the products at work.

Boy, did it get changed in a hurry.

There's a joke in there somewhere about God and his promises to mankind. Someone will be along shortly to point it out to me.
