The eclipse was approx 35% here and the weather was mostly clear + cool (45F). Took my small refractor with solar filter outside and watched the moon's progression across the sun for the first half hour. I then attached my old Canon DSLR to the end of the scope and snapped a few photos. This...

Wow, flashbacks. I was stationed at Travis AFB back in the 80s. Worked on the C-5A and mustered out just as the new C-5B's were being delivered. It was amazing watching takeoff as the plane just seem to slowly float off into the sky. Even more amazing was how much cargo these monsters could...

I've enjoyed viewing the night sky off and on for many years. Via binoculars or my small refractor, the moon, sun and solar system objects were always a delight. Constellations and DSOs were more difficult as I mostly lived in highly populated urban areas with tons of light pollution. Still I...

I remember when my son bought his first Tesla (a used 2013 Model S). We were coming south from the San Rafael, CA area and wanted to go toward Oakland via the Richmond Bridge. His GPS system had us trying to go THROUGH San Quentin Prison. The front gate guards had a good laugh.

Sounds like Terducken.

Congrats on saying "adios" to your COJ. While not retired, I gave up on large companies after the 2008 crash. And hopefully someone told that forklift driver that he's doing it wrong. o_O

In honor of Robbie Coltrane's recent passing, I'm rewatching his 90's TV series

For value bourbon (sipping or mixing) I like Evan Williams BIB or Wild Turkey 101. Around $15 per 750ml. No need for Costco at that price.

I make mistakes, so I'd need an erasable ink version. Liquid graphite?

My Vegas strategy has always been to bring cash for gambling and pre-pay for the room and entertainment. Leave the ATM + credit cards at home. If the money runs out, I'm done gambling.

Welcome. What part of Idaho?

I listen to the "radio" anytime I'm in the car. It's mostly streamed items from my phone apps - music, podcasts, bible scripture, etc. I'll occasionally tune in to local radio stations to get info on happenings in my area, but I don't ever listen to the propaganda they call "news" on the MSM...

Incredible, awesome, inspiring, etc. Good time to go before the summer crowds. Just remember, no selfies with the Bison.

Doesn't HULU cost $6.99/mo ?

Based on the size of the mag in the above picture, that is not a 50 cal.

Lots of "hard living" due to 50 years as a rock star. Injuries, surgeries, hearing loss, diabetes, pancreatitis and alcoholism have taken their toll.
