Total Eclipse

[kpg4923]

But it IS A NECESSITY! You do not understand. This is a ONCE in a LIFETIME event. Don't you get that? Many people, my sister for example, this is a necessity. What you think is a necessity or not is irrelevant to others.

Gas may be a necessity for you one day, but not anyone else. Just because you don't want the food you still have in your house, does not make buying more food today a necessity.

Not certain we can ID "what is or is not" for for others. I do think price gouging is much easier to ID.

I am 100% certain that we can ID ‘what is it is not’

And I am 100% certain that this is NOT a necessity for your sister.

North Texas on 4/8: Mostly cloudy with a strong thunderstorm. I hope that entices everyone to go elsewhere.

Wonder about how many will cancel when they find out it's going to be completely overcast on that day.

If I video this with my cell phone will my eyes get burned out when I watch it later?

In all seriousness, use a filter. The sun has a magnificent ability to fry optics

Supposed to be some sun in morning and increasing clouds in afternoon at my location. Figures, I just coughed up $38 bucks for plastic framed Eclipse glasses shipped.

Apparently they have a new "path of totality " map and they moved it to the east
The 1st map showed the western edge right around Cisco now its about 50 miles to the east.

Be a good time to take a nap.
Although we have blackout curtain, so it won't make much difference.
