This was just Yahoo. I knew I would find something somewhere.

This is a big event.

Frankly i stick with Wiki most of the time. It is free and usually there are no copyright problems--of course if your posts get 100 hits like mine; nobody cares. hahaha

By the way I defrosted my fridge in the middle of the night. I could not sleep.

I am cleaning refrigerator tonight. Freezer is fine. I did my shopping this evening and the store was busy with old folks. I got some strawberries to make a salad with and they are huge. I will take some photos and post the recipes on dag. Where do you find your clip art that you use in your blogs?

I would imagine every big telescope in the Northern Hemisphere will be trained on it. We will be able to see the start of it before the sun sets on the 5th in North America.

I was tongue in cheek but I stand corrected.

There have been thousands of studies and essays written over the last half century everytime there is an eclipse or other like event.

PEOPLE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO LOOK AT THE SUN.

At least without the proper tech.

Just to get all serious on your ass, Dick, "really thick sunglasses" won't cut it. I realize you're being facetious, but hundreds of people ARE going to wake up with burned retinas on the morning of June 6.

Unless you've got a telescope with an astronomically correct solar filter, don't even try glancing at the setting sun. There will be plenty of free live webcasts. SLOOH's coverage of the recent annular eclipse was very good.

Well thank you Auntie. Stayed

Well thank you Auntie. Stayed up all night defrosting the fridge for pay day. ha

This Venus spectacle ought to be something. Probably a thousand pix next week.

Oh I just remembered although I do not have the link; One of Mitt's sons has made a living as a member of Dad's campaigns years after those campaigns were over. hahahaha

"Presidential candidate Mitt Romney was asked to explain why none of his five sons are in the military and he said that his sons demonstrate their patriotism by going on the road and campaigning for him. Now there's a tough choice: 'Iraq, or Iowa? Fallujah or Cedar Rapids? Honey, what do you think?'" --Jay Leno

Love the media matters 'cover', hope they sell posters of same.

Good blog, ultra creative and 'well done'.
