Apr 6 2010Puff, Is That You?: Dragon Spotted Flying Above Cinderella's Castle At Disney World
Sure it looks more like a turtle skull BUT USE YOUR IMAGINATION. If you squint while nodding your head and pretending you're shaking a handful of dice it looks like you're masturbating a dragon. But it's actually the smoke trail from NASA's launch of the Shuttle Discovery en route to the International Space Station. Or is it the smoke monster from LOST?....
....
....
Kill Mickey! DO IT -- IT'S HIS TIME!
Hit the jump for a shot of the launch that's a lot less dragon-y.

GW, the part you crossed out "you're masturbating"
before you crossed it out did that mean masturbating the dragon, or just masturbating

Looks vaguely like a dragon...if you squint a lot..the coloring looks like it's an odd reflection from the lights below...or just been duped from photoshop.
