Be quick about it, you only have a few hours.

Or, I could just stare at this with the lights off:

Fine, stare at the picture. I will be busy looking for -->ALIENS<--.

yoo hoo ... runs and hides.

I've seen it. Orange ball.

Thanks for the reminder stayne. I saw Mars a few nights ago and wasn't sure what it was, I thought it was Jupiter since it was so big. I don't think I've ever seen Mars this big. Wish I had a good telescope to view it with. I'd like to get one powerful enough to see the rings around Saturn. Maybe I should try making my own.

I just walked outside and was greeted by a thick layer of slow-moving clouds. They came out of nowhere. puki could you maybe cite a few fantasy sorceror-type latin magical phrases and remove the clouds?

Mars is sitting RIGHT BESIDE the moon tonight! Breathtaking.
