Eclipse glasses reminder:

After eclipse day, YOUR GLASSES WILL STILL WORK !!

Put in a safe place. Might get an interesting (large) sunspot grouping at some point, and you could view it.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Amazon sent me fake glasses and left me in the lurch. Just got the call that real glasses are in. Woo Hoo!

Do I keep the #13 shade welders helmet? It is kinda Darth Vader cool looking.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Oh fuck.

Even Tryon Nebraska is expecting between 500 and 10,000 visitors.

Let me lead a quick prayer:

Oh, Great Odin. AllFather.
If you believe Trump should be removed from office, please give us a Sign.
Make the sky darken during daylight hours, if this is your will.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
