Bermuda Triangle where things are said to go haywire. And you don't really want wire in your hay.

Gee, Art's getting more active in his older age. He buffaloed us in the ISON Comet thread, and now he's horsing around in the Waterspout thread. I wonder what and where will be the next bout of friskiness for us to appreciate :?: “Where now are the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was bl...

Does Peter Higgs know about this?

Bubba the whale’s last words as he proceeded to place himself underneath the tornado waterspout for the joke effect of appearing to have the biggest spout around… “ya’ll watch ‘iss”

And how about explaining “liquid-cooled" underwear to the folks at home?

It must be tough being an astronaut.

I am so far behind...
Happy Birthday Bystander!
You're not too old if you can remember whether you're putting the milk back in the refrigerator or getting it out! (actually there is a funnier version of that joke)

Happy Birthday MargaritaMc!

art awakens the senses
composing reflections from life's reasoned fences
encoded skill and mind is the foundry
beyond the grip of night's emotional boundary

A belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY Orin!
Sorry to be so late.

If I had a space suit, I would want the butt cover to be transparent so I could moon from the Moon!

... How's that? I am the butt of my own joke!

If you live here, U R A NUS

I expect it WOULD be stinky given the age of the Moon.

I myself am getting old and feel pretty stinky about it.

Too bad it’s not made of cheese. That would make it more habitable.

In the spirit of Yogi Berra... The Moon would be a good place to live if it were habitable. You know, things certainly haven’t tuned out like I anticipated... 44 years and still little no development like in the wild west days... of course it’s not like there's air there and we can saddle up a horse...

Awww… you just like it ‘cause it has your name in it :wink: Here is a metaphorical breakdown of my word Art... Art is full of mind... (Art is smart... how else do you explain his incredible ability to conjunct anything) Astronomically seasoned (Art is old... and knows a thing or two about Astronomy)...

Art is full of mind...
Astronomically seasoned
Outlandishly reasoned
Beyond the grip of night’s boundary

Funny you should mention that... I wondered the same thing but in "word" Art, the words are not always to be taken literally... word Art is not just full of imagery but also metaphor... "wind" could be time as we travel through life... "dust crust" could be the sometime...

The wind is blowing harder now, Blowing dust into my eyes. The dust settles on my skin, Making a crust I cannot move in And I'm hovering like a fly, waiting for the windshield on the freeway Genesis, Lamb Lies Down On Broadway, Fly on a Windshield, excerpt http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archiv...

Thanks for your kind understanding and Boomer’s help. Yes, I meant to spell conscience.

Happy aphelion day!
This is as far as most of us get from the sun!

Committing a crime is never off one’s conscious . . . With exception . Then my black hole trap would be ineffective against a person with no conscious. Without a conscious wouldn't there be no incentive to dispose of evidence? Which brings to mind, is there really such a mental condition as void of...

I am very appreciative of your work Dr. Nemiroff. Although many aspects of astronomy ellude me. At least, I believe I can appreciate the work that went into the video. It is a severity of organized numbers. I only hope that you are not too dismayed by my attempts at humor amidst what I see as a gath...
