There's one in every neighborhood

That is one awesome light display. :D
 
Chuck, you need to apply a little engineering know-how to do a balisong-flippin' Santa Claus.

:D
 
That's up in Deerfield Township. Last I heard he had to shut it down due to traffic congestion. Something about the police being unable to get to the scene of an accident. I don't remember the details.

The guy could have a serious second career setting stuff like that up for businesses and whoever else could pay. Take a months vacation before Xmas and double his income.

I'd be worried about aircraft and UFOs mistaking it as a landing site.

Amazing ingenuity. Bring that sucker to Vegas and we'll pay him right to do a decent light show. :D
 
That puts the Hampden lights display to shame (a little inside reference for the Merlin boys on here). Whats the pool on how long it takes for that guy to be shot before Christmas?
 
I spoke to an electrician in my old home town of Brooklyn who had put in a separate 200 amp service in a house for someone just for the Christmas lights !!!
 
So who can tell me about the music? I think I want to go buy the CD.
 
That is the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The CD is doubtlessly available at your local shop.

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra - The Lost Christmas Eve

The instrumental is called "Wizardy In Winter".

There is a whole industry for that kind of thing, it is just usually confined to theaters and concert halls.
 
That would wreck havoc on my astronomy viewing. There is a light pole near the deck at the back of my house. Since I use my telescope over there, it is very annoying. A friend of mine told me to shoot a laser at it to confuse the light timer. That works great, as the light thinks it's day time and shuts off. You have to keep doing that about once an hour.
 
Some years ago we were visiting my in-laws who live in Temecula, a community about 30 miles north of San Diego. Three doors down from their house was a home that was an explosion of Christmas lights and decorations. Every square inch of the house, lawn and trees was covered in lights depicting Christmas scenes. It was magnificent and not to be equalled.

The house next door to this festival of lights had mounted a large billboard on their roof. On it was a large flashing red arrow pointing to the extravaganza next door. Below the arrow there were marquee lights that spelled out just one word: "Ditto".
