Thar She Blows!

The lady's blowing off some steam again. In a sign of the times, "footage" of St. Helens'1980 eruption was cobbled together from a series of still photos and looks like some of the worst stop-motion animation you've ever seen. Today's eruption was carried live on the internet via the crater-cam.

Word from some relatives in the area was that it was "quite a sight."

What was quite a sight, this time or last time? I saw the plume today, it was nothing exciting, it looked like someone's house was on fire in the hills. Now if they would just quit trying to scare everybody saying Hood is next!

The 1980 one. By all accounts, yesterday's wasn't all that much to look at.
