Coolest Christmas Lights Ever!
Normally I’d put something like this in my sideblog, but since it’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen I thought it deserved a full entry.
Carson Williams of Mason, Ohio wired up the entire front of his house with lights, and set them to music (transmitted via FM so passers-by could tune in!) – by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra in fact. It took him 3 hours to sequence the lights to the music. It’s gotta be seen to be believed.
Update: Snopes has the full details on this video.
Update: Removed the video from my site since the URL has been passed around way too much and the bandwidth usage was getting crazy.

OMG… someone has TOO much time on their hands. It is a really amazing thing to watch, but that wouldn't be something I would do.
That video has put me in the mood for Christmas now. I am not one to be in the mood for Christmas until the day before… thanks I needed that.
You're not wrong there Shana. Probably took ages to get the sequence and the music lined up. But it was all worth it
Yay for funky Christmas lights!
I've uploaded another version of the video, without any 3rd party advertising. Now it doesn't look like I've just nicked it from someone else!
