Xmas Lights + X10 + Webcam = Fun

Clark Griswold writes "My brother has outdone himself this year, installing 22,000 Christmas Lights on the outside of his house alone. The real beauty is the X10-Webcam Combo that allows you to turn the lights ON and OFF and see the results of your handiwork. It only works between 6pm and 10pm MST, but it's pretty fun to turn the zones on and off (though I'm not so sure the neighbors like it!)."

    Nevertheless a god will call
    Nevertheless the freaks will fall
    And all that we've wanted is there at the door

    Everlasting human home
    Everlasting Rise of Rome

    Who has been stealing our feeling?
    Some of us will fall
    One of us will fool you, oh yeah

    Nevertheless we understand
    Nevertheless we'll hold our hands

    Everlasting unity
    Perfect immunity
    Oh, it's a wonderful, wonderful world

    Who has been stealing our feeling?
    Some of us will fall
    One of us will fool you, oh yeah
    Fool you, oh yeah

    Nevertheless the fame will frown
    Turn us to freaky clowns
    See us in Disneylands faking the fun (the fun)
