should I?

[fflo]

Should I go see Marshall Crenshaw Sunday night? I like him. I've always skipped it when he's been in town in whatever town I've been in. It's sorta middle-priced, for the Ark.


I'm just going so hog-wild enjoying life lately, and kinda going for it, even in consumer ways---I'm afraid I might be getting carried away. Karmically more than economically, even. Afraid something is surely going to bite me in the ass, and not just cuz life does that sometimes, but exactly because I've been enjoying myself. How fucked up is that? A little reflux of that ptsd flavor? Hell. Who knows.



I don't know all those records, but he's a good songwriter, and my hunch is he's fun live.

I teach astronomy. I'll ask my students if they've seen a partial solar eclipse (or the annular one that came through maybe 15 years ago). They tell me their teachers kept them inside and closed the blinds. @#$%^& superstitious teachers--can't be bothered to learn about safe solar viewing, and even think that the sun is somehow extra dangerous during an eclipse, like it puts out sinister eclipse rays or something.

So the kids are cut off from nature in yet another way.

Please pardon my hot-button rant.

(By the way, if the eclipse happens at the time of year when the trees are leafed out, just watch the dapples of sunlight under a tree. The dapples are pinhole images of the sun, and they will look like a hundred little eclipses as the moon covers the sun.)

That was damn interesting. Thank you.
