And finally, from the Planet Metaluna ...
"Looks perfectly normal to me."

A Florida woman is accused of intentionally setting her car on fire at a gas station and then sitting in the middle of a Daytona Beach highway, claiming to be God.
All that's left of 29-year-old Alexandra Barnes' Scion is charred remains.
"She came behind the counter and grabbed the yellow lighter and ran out the door," clerk Edna Sandrus said.
The clerk ran and then tussled with Barnes to get the lighter, police said. "I could smell gas on my hand from wrestling with her," Sandrus said. "At that point, she had already sprayed her car with gasoline."
"All the sudden, she grabbed the lighter out of her car, and hit the lighter and the car just went up. It was just lit up into flames, like 15 different barbecues going on, huge into the sky," witness Fred Kelley said.
She added, "I'm like, I got to go inside and cut off the emergency valve or we're all going to be dead."
Larry Romero saw the whole thing from the business next door.
And says his co-worker jumped into action when Barnes started screaming.
"She said her babies was in the car, so he ran back to the car -- it was actually dogs, grabbed the dogs out the car and then ran back to the street, got her because she was sitting in incoming traffic," Romero said. "She sat down in the middle of US92, wanting a car to hit her she said something about she was god."
Police say Barnes was taken to a hospital where she will likely be kept for a mental evaluation. The owner of the BP says the only damage to the station was a melted pump hose.
We need to get those two together for a cage match.
Is there something in the water in FL?
Guess she didn’t like the Scion.
And finally, from the Planet Metaluna ...
"Looks perfectly normal to me."
Yes, but don’t ask.
lol
2 Gods in the news today in Florida, please do not let them mate

Just forwarded these stories to George Noory at Coast 2 Coast AM. He can say it’s got an alien connection or something
Hat tip for putting up a picture of Giorgio.
When you think “Metaluna!” Think “Giorgio!”
Or bad hair day I think of Giorgio
Don’t believe it. God would drive a better looking car than a Scion.
I only own the albums from DSOTM through The Wall from Floyd, and the only BOC album I have is Workshop of the Telescopes. OTOH, I have EVERY Rush album except Feedback, Clockwork Angels, and the live albums after Different Stages.
What if God was one of us?
That’s up in post #38.
:)
God drives an old Plymouth. After all, it says in the Bible that He drove them out in His Fury.
OTOH, Jesus drives a Honda, although he never talks about it. “For I do not speak of my own Accord.”
