Clouds inside my Coke bottle.

Lately, I have been spending way too much time thinking about the clouds that form in my Coke bottle when I first open them up.  I took several pictures of this phenomenon this morning, since I had to have a Coke because of a headache.  I thought I would take a "before" picture of the unopened bottle and an "after" picture of the opened bottle showing the tiny cloud that forms just above the liquid.  This didn't quite work out as I had expected.  However, I found the shot I took looking down the neck of the opened bottle kind of captivating.  I blew it up a bit, and then pulled it into Gimp to play with hue and saturation.  I kind of like the blue.

First place I left my body

This was the location of a bad car crash I was in.  Before the impact, I remember seeing the roadway through the rear window.  There was a bluish light illuminating things I hadn't seen before.  When I came to,  I was standing outside the wreck, looking at the electrical lines snapping from the telephone pole I'd knocked down.  A policeman came and took me over to his cruiser and had me sit in the front seat while they tried to get in touch with my parents.
