 I saw a followup of 8 to 10 local eclipses in the NASA live feet on YT, who had set up cameras along the path :ThumbsUp: 

most impressing was the view from the ISS, were the moon-shadow was racing with Mach 2 and more over the earth-surface, it had almost something of a Star Wars opening scene

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

Thinking back to my single 30's after Ex #1... not a chance.
