Computer glitch interrupts Needle fireworks

Fireworks explode off the top of the Space Needle, bringing in 2008, as seen from a condo complex on lower Queen Anne. Delays due to a computer glitch lengthened the show, according to a Space Needle spokeswoman. Ultimately, the show had to be executed manually, but it was out of sync with the accompanying music. In 14 years, this is the first such problem.

It’s about laws that go into effect  around Washington state today.

Geeze.

That’s like getting pencils and socks for Christmas.
