Lunar Eclipse

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Greetings! Aha, nice to get to know a bit about you or your surroundings.
So you are here for intellectual stimulation, it's around for sure, just have to go looking for it sometimes. :wink: Oh and you forgot to mention you like TSOM too and I now also know you watch the sky. :notworthy:

TSOM - who they?! :lol: (something from my drug addled past perhaps?
- Now I go to church every Sunday I don't get out much ...) :wink:

Yeah, watching the sky (skies? - what have you been smoking/ingesting my dear?!) is much more fun than the depressing news (or sport). Don't try it whilst driving (or ascending/descending the stairs) though folks, eh?! :lol:
One day I hope to see Andrew and TSOM in an airship drifting across above, giving me a wave as they blast out Gimme Shelter or similar! - Hope it doesn't frighten the cats though ...

Mars is high in the sky (for the northern hemisphere) at the moment, look for a pinkish 'star' just above and to the left of Orion. A pair of binoculars should be enough to resolve the disk.
Man if you can also see that Mars with the naked eye...that 'star' that is indeed a planet, that turns from a pinkish dazzle to a white dazzle and then back to pinkish and on and on it's goes...

*jumps up & down*

I've just seen Mars! YAY and go me, it rulz to be me! :von: :notworthy: :von:
