evidently it was something pretty big and pretty easy to break up in the atmosphere, because this sucker came apart pretty well. as much as i hate to make this comparison, it looks like the shuttle columbia did when it came apart back in feb of 2003. really creepy.

anyway, it’s been an interesting week. new years went great – speaking of which, happy new year to everyone! 🙂
another year down… wow… 2007 – you know, when i was a kid I couldn’t fathom hitting the year 2000 and here we are well on our way to 2010. creepy. anyway. i don’t have much to say today. i’ve been busy but nothing too exciting has happened so yeah. lol

*** update on lightshow ***
from www.9news.com

“That incredible thing, according to NORAD, was a SL-4 rocket body that re-entered the atmosphere over Colorado and Wyoming.  NORAD added that it is possible pieces of the object broke off during re-entry over states neighboring Colorado.”

so, i guess that explains why it looked like a rocket coming apart huh? lol so it took the military 4 1/2 hours to come up with that explaination when they supposedly track *EVERYTHING*? hehe that’s funny. regardless of what it was, it was cool none the less.
