    Okay, so it's getting colder and I have indigestion and the cows are creeping me out and something is rustling the bushes, so I'm out.
    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

      That's 2 degrees. (The moon is ~.5 degrees in angular size.) Speak astronomy or don't speak at all.

          I'm just trying to pretend my tens of thousands of dollars in student loans have been useful.

            You were doing a good job up to "Speak astronomy or don't speak at all "



            This is an opportunity for outreach, man, outreach!

            ...at least, that's what they told me in Astronomy Magazine.

              Just stepped out to check on the rapidly fading eclipse -- they're still at it.

                Perhaps the cows are discussing jumping over the moon.

                  Yeah, perhaps I should check my dishes and spoons...

                    The Moon here is red ... been a weird day, very hazy (no clouds) like I've never seen it here. I'm not sure if it's the eclipse or the haze making the moon red.

                      sadly, I couldn't see any of this through the cloud cover last night. I told my grandsons, we will have to wait until 2033, perhaps the sky will be clear then. Though, on a happy note: all is well here. Nothing apopolytic seemed to have occurred.

                        Nice Mobius is leaving forever, which is kinda like what would happen if the rapture were to happen on Apolyton. I blame the moon.

                          They really have. That much money will create lots of jobs for scuzzy guys with pipes coming after you to get the Feds' money back. A real boon for the economy.

                          (didn't see a bit of this red moon, we had total cloud cover due to some tropical weather condition thingummy)

                            Just stepped out this morning. The cows are silent.
