Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
So the eclipse is outside, and I would like to see it. On the other hand, it's 95 degrees outside.

I'm staying in for the eclipse, because I don't trust myself not to look at the sun.

It's damn hot here, too. I'm just going out for a few minutes, going back in for a little bit, back out, etc. But I'm going over to Tim's work around 2:00 (he works 1 mile from our house) to watch it hit totality (well 92% totality) with him and his co-workers.

I think we're at maximum here, it looks like early evening, just after the sun's down past the horizon.

If you're not, you should go outside for a bit. Birds get all confused and nightsong/morningsongy.
