Quick little bit.

Don't have a whole lot of time,
as I've got another class across campus in fifteen minutes,
but I thought i'd throw something out there just to whet your appetites
or something like that...

I learned last weekend why no one has ever found the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

It had been raining all day, and was starting to clear up,
so i went flying.
i was up there about 3,500 feet.

I noticed a rainbow off to the east
I flew over toward it and when i got there 
it was probably the most depressing and amazing thing i'd ever seen.

I got really close to the rainbow, 
which I wasn't sure was possible.
I thought maybe it would keep moving back as I got there
but it didnt.

So i get really close to it 
and I notice it doesnt look like it necessarily goes right down to the ground.
I bank the plane so I can see further down.

And, well, as it turns out,
the rainbow made a full circle.

yeah. i know.
not right is it.
but its true.

A rainbow actually makes a full circle, 
it's tilted and turns and comes back up on the other side.

I hope I didn't just ruin your day.
I thought it was incredible.

Ok. Gotta go.
