Nervous to hear if my daughter made the freshman soccer team.  Cuts were today. I'll find out when I get home.
Oh my, that is nerve racking.
She got cut.
Dang.  On the other hand, teaches her to handle disappointment and keep at it.  Walk it off!
She's bummed but already said she wants to try out again next year.

You outside with your glasses on Raz?
I was.  Only 92% totality here, so not as impressive as the one in '79 (99.6% in Seattle area).  Dimmed considerably, and temperature dropped 3 degrees.
About to hit our peak here of about 81%, in about 8 minutes. Lots of people gathering outside.
Nothing but clouds for me during the eclipse. Now? Couldn't find a cloud to save my life. I took a bunch of photos and will see if there are any worth posting.
Or just watch it on the news tonight...
.......and the world didn't end.
Actually it did. It just didn't end long enough for a the bullshit to be gone when it started over.
A never ending supply of bullshit in this world.  Evening Raz.  You ashore or afloat?
Ashore.  Back to work...but at least working from home today.
You had a chance to pop cap on your new 45/70 lever gun?
Sorry to be slow replying. Took the warden for a motorcycle ride. Yes, I broke in the barrel on the .45-70. Shoots very nicely.
