    It seems to get less funny as people do not recognize what polaroid was any more. I have to use it while it still is funny.

    Yep, you turned it each picture, got 4 flashes out of it. Then you made a pretty neat Christmas tree ornament out of it.
    Ahhh, those were the days.

    -27 here yesterday morning. Warming to single digits above Zero tomorrow with 4 to 6 inches of new snow. Winds picking up to 30 to 40 mph by evening. Turning colder next week. Good news is that I haven't been bitten by a mosquito in quite a spell.
