May 21, 2008: Moon Shadow

The solar eclipse shadow, tracking across the Earth.

shopped

oh. ic

I'm being followed by a moonshadow . . .

Is Van Morrison there too?

from a nasa page--a satellite orbiting antarctica caught the same phenom.

Shopped? How can you say that? Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a genuine looking "shadow crossing the moon" shot? Hmmph. Here it is from another angle:

Wasn't that from Star Trek, you know, the movie where the Borg go back in time?

Van Morrison? Cat Stevens!

I have that song on my iPod right now, as a matter of fact.

My sister was killed by Cat Stevens on 9/11.

Um... I can't tell if my joke meter is broken or not...

You do know that song is named "Morning Has Broken," right?

lol...yes. And your joke meter isn't broken, I was making a very unfunny joke!

My cousin and I heard that song in elementary school, it was the "soundtrack" to some filmstrip (you have to be of a certain age to remember filmstrips!) so we asked for it for Christmas. Grammy got each of us the album. I had no idea what a Cat Stevens was.

Actually, I think that's a scene from Independence Day.

Eh. I've seen lots of moons that appear to have holes in them.







And then i fuck them.

i used to really like this song. lately i think Cat is a smarmy prick. oh well. innocence lost. i'm so jaded at this point. I need a vacation.

Fuckwad said Salman Rushdie should be killed.

That's no moon shadow...that's a space station!

That's no moon shadow...that's an asteroid about to strike the earth!

(BTW, what's the difference between an asteroid and a hemorrhoid?)

Asteroids are big ugly thing on your ass, and hemorrhoids are big ugly thi... never mind.

Oh... Moon Shadow ... Moon Dance. Never noticed that before.

Moon Shadow ... Moon Dance ... Dancing with the Stars ...
We should start a thread for that sorta thing!

I am of the opinion that we should replace anything that ends with "with the stars" with "with the has-beens."

Dancing with the Has-beens

Battle of the Has-beens

Battle of the Network Has-beens

Circus of the Has-beens

Hear, hear! Furthermore, Shawnee, we should replace anything that ends with "Idol" with "Will-Have-Been" .

American Will-Have-Been

Junior Will-Have-Been

GB original: Pop Will-Have-Been

Polish Will-Have-Been, Swedish Will-Have-Been, etc.

I'd like to see an FCC ban on ads from Oxwill-Have-Been and Mwill-Have-Been.

Hey, is that Sara Swill-Have-Been still on CSI?

Also, until China cleans up its earthquake mess, how about a voluntary, temporary network moratorium on news reports on the Been-Have-Will Lama? :p

I like Sara! ( would have been a good wife for what's his name)
I havn't watched CSI since Sara took a taxi out of town.

Don't forget, Sunday evening about 8pm EST, the Phoenix Mars Lander will be touching down. Here's the poop on how to see it on TV or the Internet.

good point

they were both messed up ...only Lady Heather had her head on straight.

I was sooo hoping for a Grissom/Lady Heather 'ship!
