Tonight is a BLUE MOON
watch the rapture ready folks heads assplode again :rofl:

Seriously, it is a blue moon tonight so lucky folks can see it and Jupiter is next to it!

Space Weather News for May 31, 2007
http://spaceweather.com

BLUE MOON & JUPITER: According to folklore, tonight's full Moon over
North America is a "Blue Moon" because it is the second full Moon in a
calendar month. If you go outside to look at the Blue Moon, you'll see
it has a companion: Jupiter. All night long, the giant planet will be
located right beside the Moon. You can see the bright pair with the
naked eye, or for a real treat, scan them with a backyard telescope. The
moons of Jupiter, lunar mountains and craters, and the Great Red Spot are
surprisingly easy to see.

1. The moon is beautiful, we have a clear sky tonight.
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own…

Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love on my own…

Blue moon
You knew just what i was there for
You heard me saying a prayer
For someone i really could care for.

And suddenly there appeared before me
The only one my arms could ever hold
I heard someone whisper, “please, adore me”
And when i looked my moon had turned to gold.

Blue moon,
Now i’m no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart,
Without a love of my own
Without a love of my own…



The moon is very bright.

5. Hey there pawpicker.
I am tired, got up to early today.

I will be working early voting for 9 days starting Monday mostly 8 to 5, but three days 7 to 7.

Then I get to hold the election at the school on the 16th of June.

Some good money but all this for one race, a runoff.

We will have a good time.

8. The race is for a replacement for a city councilmember.
It will take longer to sign the voter in then for the voter to vote.

We will be getting some overtime so that is good.

We have a lot fun when we get together.

The Saturday election will be a long day, 7 to 7 but we will spend the talking and laughing.

I get the big bucks because I am the Presiding Judge, something like $7.30 an hour.

19. I enjoy the small elections, the big elections are hell.
The early voting place I work is the most popular in the city, trust me we earn our money.

My precinct now has 2, 398 voters and growing.

I have one big precinct.

25. I would rather have most of them vote early.
The school were we work is to small now, crowd control is real important.

The county will not give me enough machines for my growing precinct or let me hire enought clerks.

The new townhouse people have some major attitude problems to deal with, they don't like to wait in long lines.

I like the small elections.

Not much happening today, or this week for that matter. I've been sleeping through most of it though so it's possible I missed something.. :rofl:

Speaking of sleeping, I'm on my way back to bed. Night.

12. well, technically they lied to you.
while it is the second full moon within a calendar month, it is not a true 'blue moon' which would happen when you have two full moons within a zodiac sign, which this is not.

but it's a damned fine looking moon none the less :hi:
