Solar Eclipse

[AR-15]

Who remembers the total Eclipse we had here in ND, think it was 1979, remember a herd of Antelope running in circles, it was a neat thing to see

I do, stood in the parking lot of Magic City Campus (graduated 80) and watched it.

Seen the other day that hotels in the total eclipse zone that usually charge $90 for a night are charging over $900.

Who gives a shit about a 2 min eclipse. Kidd Rock didn’t see the sun for 3 damn days.

 

[RANGER 1]

Don’t we kind of have a solar eclipse every day. And isn’t it called night? Just asking

 

[Rowdie]

No that's just the earth rotating.

 

[bucksnbears]

I can't fathom people getting excited about this.
But..., it'll be coffee talk fodder for the Liberal pukes for sure.

I remember it was a nice sunny day, a jet was flying in it's path

I dont remember that one, but I remember one when I was a kid in the late 1950s or early 1960s. I was waist deep in a hay stack doing the stacking. It had to be in the high 90° or even 100 in the early afternoon. I was 10 or 12 years old, old enough to be in a haystack, but totally unaware of what was going on. Not only did it get dark, but I think it felt cooler. At least it took my mind off my socks full of hayneedles.

 

[Davy Crockett]

My dad told me they looked through brown beer bottles at an eclipse when he was a kid

 

[LBrandt]

As old as I am, once you see a half dozen you don't get too excited. LB

Arc welding masks work great.

 

[Jiffy]

I have a vendor that is actually closed today because of this. Seriously?

 

[guywhofishes]

When I was a kid we just stared at the sun. It stops hurting after a while, you pussies.

Later that night we felt like we had sand in our eyes.

My night vision sucks now BTW. We weren't the sharpest pencils in the drawer.
