The eclipse didn't even look cool from here. I can take a picture of the sun and draw a black circle over it.

I saw the whole thing and I can honestly say it was overrated...

And if Raydog and XenusianSoldier agree on something, it must be true. :D

Not saying it wasn't cool...but still overrated for a "once in a lifetime" event...LOL

Not a man of science? And it's more like once every 10 years, btw. :D

I know...everybody around here keeps saying "it's once in a lifetime" but you're right, it happens all the time...maybe just not in our particular neck of the woods...that's why everybody and their brother traveled to places where they could see it...I suppose if it made everyone forget the other bullshit going on in the world for a day, it was a good thing.

I think lunar eclipses are cooler.

Next one in the US will be in 2024.

Yup...it will pass through 13 states...we just published that in our newspaper today.
