Total Solar Eclipse 4/8/24

[DoggyDaddy]

Traffic alert just came up, I-65 at a crawl, SR-38 stopped. 231 at a stand still. US-52 at a crawl.

Last min. travelers I guess.

7 years to get here, and some people still wait until the last minute...

Wife’s FB page says I-65 SB at a stand still near Rensselaer w many auto accidents, I’m guessing those folks don’t even know the time changes right there. If the roads were clear, they still wouldn’t make it.

Mooning on TV

My family stuck to the back roads and had easy traveling.

Anyhoo, later today and tomorrow when NO ONE shows up in an ER with eye injuries, the TV stations and gubmint types will be doing victory laps about how good their warnings were.

Question- in my 53 years, I have never met anyone with an eye injury from an eclipse, anyone? Anyone? Buehler?

7 minutes until the craziness starts.

General Quarters, General Quarters, All Hands Man Your Battle Stations, Set INGO Condition one!​

Don't look at the sun unless you got the cool glasses.

Because of the braindead morons racing home to watch the stupid eclipse, what should have taken me 20 minutes from Clarksville to home took 50 minutes.

Now I hope the Sun never comes back out

Nasa is at the track.

Yep, I got the pinhole in the side of a box thing going on, the moon has taken a snackbite outa the sun!

OK it's starting all normal so far.

Here is a picture of a tree it's still doing tree stuff.
