Earthquake in South Carolina

I know T-Bone has great interest in earthquakes as she even has a widget notifying her of all earthquakes happening around the world, so I’m sure she finds great interest in the 3.6 magnitude earthquake that occurred this morning in South Carolina.  Here is the statistical information on the quake:

Blind Cat Now Sees

The cat with purr-fect vision! Almost-blind boggie Ernest has his life transformed by wearing CONTACT LENS

Most contact lens wearers have had trouble putting them in their eyes at some point - so the idea of putting them on a cat might seem ridiculous.

But that is exactly what the owners of Ernest - a 15-year-old black and white cat -
have found themselves doing.

Biggest Full Moon Tonight in Years

This from the Times Online.  Tonight is going to be a uniquely large full moon.

From
December 12, 2008

Look up tonight for a spectacular treat in the sky

Biggest full moon for years enhanced by shooting stars

If the full moon tonight looks unusually large, it is not your imagination – it is the biggest and brightest full moon to be seen for 15 years.

Each month the Moon makes a full orbit around the Earth in a slightly oval-shaped path, and tonight it will swing by the Earth at its closest distance, or perigee. It will pass by 356,613km (221,595 miles) away, which is about 28,000km closer than average.

The unusual feature of tonight is that the perigee also coincides with a full moon, which will make it appear 14 per cent bigger and some 30 per cent brighter than most full moons this year – so long as the clouds hold off from blocking the view.

The next closest encounter with a full moon this large will not be until November 14, 2016.

A taste of the other side

Ackkk!, I haven’t been updating in the past week. In case you have not noticed. I have had many a life changing situations happening and I just have been trying to deal but amidst all the turmoil, I have been keeping contact with a good friend of mine and we have been having our weekly political sessions. So I deemed it right that after all my stabbings at McCain and Palin that i put a link here to their site who has a bit more of a informative view on the opposite side.

I think it is very important at this point to be open-minded in a sense and look at the fork in the road. It’s part of being an adult and adopting to other people and their opposing opinions. No one is perfect. Who knows, you may learn something.

It seems that stupidity is contagious

Indeed, that is what is going on in these two videos posted below.  I wonder why we don’t see things like this covered by the mainstream media. Although, if I were Palin or McCain, I’m not quite sure I would want to let these people represent me. Right about now, somewhere in the recesses of my brain, the song from “Deliverance” plays about.
