Oh, look at those cloud photos, Rolling....COOL!

 

I need one fire brick for the furnace, I'll pick up a few extras. One brick isn't bad considering I burned anthracite coal for half a season... Shyt gets hot!

Space.com via ncpr.org




"Interested skywatchers should attempt to see the total eclipse of the moon and the rising sun simultaneously. The little-used name for this effect is called a 'selenelion,' a phenomenon that celestial geometry says cannot happen.

"And indeed, during a lunar eclipse, the sun and moon are exactly 180 degrees apart in the sky. In a perfect alignment like this (called a 'syzygy'), such an observation would seem impossible. But thanks to Earth's atmosphere, the images of both the sun and moon are apparently lifted above the horizon by atmospheric refraction. This allows people on Earth to see the sun for several extra minutes before it actually has risen and the moon for several extra minutes after it has actually set."

 

Never saw all of twin peaks. I think i will watch the new one and then listen to everyone say how the original was better.

 

I didn't watch any episode of Twin peaks.

 

I remember being confused at twin peaks.....I don't remember anything about the plot


I woke up for the eclipse but it was really cloudy so it was a bust

 

That's ideal if you want to rewatch it.

 

It was clear here, but it never seemed to turn red... Kinda like brown.

 

I gave up drinking those huge light and sweet ice coffees from Mac Donald's......first day off, I had hot chocolate made with Swiss Miss and boiling water for something sweet.....and 2 and 3 days I have had nothing like that in front of me to drink....want to drink green tea and honey, but have not made that yet......
anyway, I don't feel as caffeine driven anymore....and I am kind of boring now...LOL

 

Oh,moony;you-BORING?

Nope-never gonna happen,Honeychile.

Some are born boring.
Some achieve 'boringness'.
...and some are like Moonglow-fascinating,with a touch of zestful liveliness.


Oh-and some are like me....unable to place a post without first going through it for typing errsor....

RF: Cleaned the wood furnace chimney including the inside part... Gotta disassemble that inside bit and then put it back together. What a bytch that was. Got about 2 gallons of shyt out of there in my 6 gallon ash bucket.


Looked like a fuckin' chimney sweep when I was done...



Wait!

 

I have nothing to do for the next hour and my connection sucks right now.

 

Both little ones are asleep...

It rained while we were in the Smoky Mountains...

 

I re-strung my 12-string acoustic with new D'Addagio 10s today,then spent a happy couple of hours tuning it to various tones.
Finally decided it sounds the BIZ when tuned to drop-D.
Not too 'ringy',yknow?
So-then spent another couple of hours watching the pooches run around the beach while I sat playing it and generally chillin'.

Yeah. As Fridays go,I've had worse.

 

Hey back!

RF: baby Manni was born on this Monday, perfectly healthy!
