"Technology is impressive indeed. I was under the impression meteorologists used a green screen to display the weather. Looks like a little kid opening his first Christmas gift. Wish I was there for that. "

"Adorable! I just did this yesterday with a laptop I’ve had for about 2 months! I thought there was something on the screen, so I went to get it off, and the screen moved! "
