A series of shifting illusions, deceptive appearances or phantasms that you experience in a dream, a changing scene made up of many elements, or the optical illusion made by a magic lantern where the figures cast grow larger or shrink, dissolve or pass into each other is a phantasmagoria.

Party With the Pack!
As the song goes, I love my Green Bay Packers. Have ever since my father got me into watching the games way back when Don "Majik" Majkowski was the quarterback. (From 1987 to 1992)
Ten years later, Green Bay went to New Orleans to face the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXI. The Packers scored first, and never looked back, defeating the Patriots 35-21, and bringing the Lombardi Trophy back home to Green Bay.
