Spectacular!

The ever-reliable "The Big Picture" on Boston.com has some fantastic photos of the eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland (surprisingly, Blogger's auto-spell-check does not include the word "Eyjafjallajokull" and marks it as an error).

They're all amazing, but the first one and the last three prompt a thought in the mind of this mythology buff: "Thor ain't happy, and if Thor ain't happy, ain't nobody happy."

(Yes, Vulcan is thought of as the god of volcanic forces in Greek mythology, while Thor's domain in the Norse pantheon is limited to storms, lightning and thunder. Check the pictures again, dude. Looks like some thunder and lightning to me.)
