LONG NIGHTS MOON: According to folklore, tonight's full moon is the "Long Nights Moon," so-called because it occurs near the winter solstice, the longest night of the year in the northern hemisphere. Tonight's moon also happens to be the highest-soaring full moon in 18 years. As seen from most parts of North America and Europe, it will be above the horizon for more than 15 hours--a long night indeed.

If I'm travelling at the speed of light, I won't care! I'll just be all like "Oh shit, I'm travelling at the speed of light!" and not much else will matter. Hehe.

So, here's MY question: Is jorgan your significant other, your alter ego, or something else entirely? :)
