Someone's a fan!

On the way out tonight, I drove past a house with all the Xmas lights on. Looked pretty cool, especially as it is the first I have seen this year but there was something ....

I drove past the same house on the way back home and had a closer look. There were all the expected symbols of Xmas - Santa, a snowman, reindeer ..... and on the very highest point of the roof was the thing that must have caught my eye but not quite registered consciously - the Heroes sigil, about five or six feet high, all in yellow tube lighting.

SANTA IS A MUTANT?

Santa would have to be a mutant in order to be able to give gifts to all the western world in a single night. I would say that his ability must share some similarity to Hiro's.

Maybe combined with the X-Men who can make multiple copies of himself? I wonder if that's how the Tooth Fairy does it too?

or they exist in a quantum state, always everywhere and nowhere simultaneously.

Yes, even better - then the appearance of presents is just a result of a temporary manifestation in that time and space. I think you may be onto something there!

Santa has the easier job in one way - he knows when he has to turn up but what about the Tooth Fairy? How does she know when to turn up? Every time a tooth dies it sends out some kind of bat-signal maybe? Some kind of dentine detection system?

That is awesome. I wonder if I can find it online and convince my mom to get one. I'm gonin back home for Christmas and Heroes is one of the few shows we both watch.

I suspect it might have been home-made - there seemed to be some kind of trellis work behind the lighting keeping it in place.
