A new moon always brings some hope. yes it does altie. and, i can see it - its a beautiful crescent moon. "This is a little song called Everlasting Moon about what some people did to preserve the environment." The sky revealed the rumor In a misty gray cocoon Some angry baby-boomers Stole the everlasting moon They found a new location Clear and poison free In a distant constellation Oh, they called it lunacy Chorus: Hangin' in the sky The perfect alibi Baby come outside with me There's a moon you've got to see Smiling every place With his laser-painted face Light of love in each moonbeam Want you step into my dream Everlasting moon (everlasting moon, everlasting moon) Back when nature ruled the heavens Oh gypsies, fools, and loons Were dragged across the ocean By that everlasting moon When it goes from full to crescent I move in and out of tune It's the envy of the Kremlin It's our everlasting moon Chorus: Shinin' in the sky The perfect alibi Baby come outside with me There's this moon you've got to see Smiling every place With his laser-painted face Light of love in each moonbeam Want you step into my dream Everlasting moon (everlasting moon) Everlasting moon (everlasting moon) -jimmy buffett

I stepped out on the snow covered deck and saw a beautiful crescent moon in the western sky. Ha. I just came in from walking the dog and figured I'd mention it. You beat me to it. It looked like I could hang my coat on it. I just finished looking at this site: mystarslive.com You can enter your where-abouts and time and get a half way decent map of the sky. I prefer aiming it at the eastern horizon because that is the direction I usually look out at while walking the dog. I wanted to see which planet was shining so brightly. It's Jupiter. Saturn is out there too but didn't notice it. Here's a question for you star gazers. Do the Big Dipper and Little Dipper have a different name? One that is more scientific sounding? Or are they part of another constellation? I can't seem to find it on the maps that I've checked. -StarStruck

Altair19- you took the werds outta clappy's mouth... zita took them outta mine... so i'll have to take some outta some buddy elf's mouth. my "thought for today" on monday was: "Mostly we were able to ignore the hairy thing in the corner. It seemed to be leaking some green fluid, but we could walk around that. It gave off an unpleasant odor, a cross between Limburger cheese and a decomposing skunk, but we never mentioned it. We didn't seem to have a plan for getting rid of it. It wasn't really hurting anybody. And then one day I thought I heard it singing. And another day it seemed to say I love you." -james tate here's my writer friend jack's reply today... Later he took a bath and got a trim, found some clothes someone had thrown away, brushed his teeth and came into town. A woman thought she had seen him before and asked him into Carly's for a beer, they got acquainted and liked one another. She took him home and they made love all that night and well into the next. He had a lot of hunger and she was ready to fill his plate over and over. After a few weeks she asked him to take a bath or leave and he left. He didn't like being pushed around on issues of personal hygiene, he was pure in soul, and that is what counted to him. He went back to his lair and moldered there for awhile, thought things over, really missed her, made up lovely little songs he promised he would sing to her next time.
