    I've seen that rail before. That's really neat. The Time Bandit? Has to be my favorite show, I think. I really don't even watch that much TV, but I tune in for that one. Of all the "reality" TV that is out there, that one seems to ring true for some reason. Do you do production work?

    Glad you like the show! I'm the sound designer and re-recording mixer. Luckily I never have to be cold or seasick!

    Here's a picture of me in my front yard this past spring and one last month at Bean Blossom.

    I like to play outside when I can. This Labor Day weekend I'll try to get a really nice one up in Door County here in Wisconsin.

    I got a real sense of 'deja vu' from your pic.Randi. It looked like my last workstation at British Aerospace,just before i retired,except i had a huge CADS / CATIA display instead of a standard PC - my goodness,it did take me back a few years,

    Jamie, not sure it has special meaning, but I was one happy photographer to capture this scene. I do live here.... well not in the field but on the same farm.

    Was anybody else at Telluride about 12 years or so ago, standing in the rain listening to Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas et al, when the double rainbow appeared in the sky, down the canyon, framing the waterfall that appears in all the Telluride promo photos?
    Alas, I didn't have my camera because I didn't want it to get wet.

    Latebloomer, It's a reference to a viral youtube video where a guy is video taping a double rainbow in Yosemite and seems to have a more exstatic reaction than one would expect. That "What does it mean" line is in it. You've captured a nice one. The way my house is positioned I get them after evening storms from the NW over my neighbors house... never a double though. You shot a good one!

    No, but I was at the Rainbow Gathering in New Mexico in 1978, near the headwaters of the Gila River. On July 4th, it had been overcast and drizzly all day. In the evening, everybody gathered in the big meadow for dinner. The rain finally stopped and the clouds began to break up. Everybody stood in a great circle holding hands and started chanting, "Rainbow! Rainbow!" Soon the sun began to peek through and a rainbow grew from opposite horizon points until the two arcs met in the middle. Everybody kept chanting, "Rainbow! Rainbow!" and, incredibly, a second rainbow began to form the same way outside the first one - more slowly, and fainter, but surely and steadily, until it too was complete. One of the most remarkable experiences in my life. And still the only double rainbow I've seen.

    I heard recently that when you see a double rainbow, the order of colors is reversed on the second one. A couple of days later I saw a huge double rainbow, and sure enough. Single rainbows go ROYGBIV, and double rainbows go ROYGBIV VIBGYOR. It was really misty on the highway, so the rainbows actually came all the way down to the fender of my truck. Wild.

    Yes, it's true. It's all about the angle of refraction, that is, the spatial relationship among the light source, the observer, and the refracting medium - ie, the water vapor in the air.

    At first I thought those were sheep -- they're hay bales, aren't they? Or not ...

    Not sure. But I do know that Vib Gyor of 'Vib Gyor and the Hungarian Gypsies' played a sweet 1924 Gibson F4. I remember seeing him at the Idora Park Ballroom in Youngstown, Ohio back in the early 1970s. Great show!

    I don't know for sure, never having seen the reference before, nor having spent any time researching this, but I don't think deep fried Mars bars are necessarily or originally a Scottish delicacy. Not saying they couldn't be popular there (remember, no research), but my understanding is such niceties often originate in Texas, often at the State Fair. It seems there are a bunch of deep frying experts there who present new deep fried goodies every year, in a fit of inventiveness and one-up-manship. This may have started long ago with corn dogs (not necessarily in Texas), and so far has included such amazing innovations as deep fried ice cream, corn-on-the-cob, candy bars, Coca-Cola, and, my favorite, butter. What could be better? But all this is not to say deep fried Mars bars aren't popular in Scotland - they may well be - nor that they didn't originate there - they may well have - I just wanted to say "deep fried butter" ...

    Seems to me I found deep fried mars bars in Scotland along with haggis and black pudding. I LOVE Scottish oatmeal!!! Of course, over there, it's just oatmeal ...
