I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Dudes! This is just a crappy cameraphone shot, and it's cloud-covered. But just to give you an idea of what my telescope is like: [link]

I am living in the future.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dude, you took that picture with your phone through your telescope?? Bananas.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The Road is fantastically bleak.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ooooh. I hope you have clear skies for the eclipse, Liese!

Liese, echoing -t, watch the eclipse!

Right!!?!

And yes, the reason I was dinking around with the phone was because I wanted to see if I was going to be able to shoot during the lunar eclipse. I am all worked up about the eclipse. What time does it start?

I think we need to have a F2F at Liese's place (BTW, thanks for taking Des to the airport! Did you have to drive to Phoenix?!?)
