    Don't forget the Perseid meteor shower on the 13th (Thursday). If you are in the Northern hemisphere anyway, it will be a young moon (virtually no moon) making it extra special due to less light pollution. Should average over one 'shooting star' per minute and you want to be looking North East and nearly straight up :)

    What about the southern hemisphere?

    If you are close to the equator then you should be able to see something. Basically the further north you are in the world the better it will be, as you start moving down into the SH then eventually you will miss out I'm afraid.

    Alright folks, it's getting pretty dead around here so here's a really good question to spice things up a micro bit.


    Which hero of yours do you want to physically look like?

    My joke is I want to be strong like Moose from SPN.
    *if you understand this marry me nao*

    Motoko Kusanagi

    Damn, she's foxy!

    Selene from Underworld, though I don't think I would leave the bedroom much.

    Goku, at SS4, or maybe the demon Amon from Devilman, but the old original one, not the new one.

    Alright everyone, let's do something fun. I want you lot to brag about your proudest nerdy moments this far in life!

    Mine is one of my best friends asked me if I knew anything about pirates that would help him with his report for school.

    He had to stop me numerous times so that he could keep up with his notes. ;)

    I was watching the second Matrix movie with my brother. (Warning: 12y/o spoilers ahead) At the end, when Neo stops the machines and then passes out, I immediately screamed, "He ran out of EP!" My brother spit his soda across the room. :) Proud moment for this lil sis.

    And every time a shower comes around with a full moon... we get cloudy skies here in the Mid Atlantic

    A double bad for meteor shower watching. I wanted to go up the hill tonight to watch but we are going to have 100% cloud cover all night :(

    I realized my mistake after losing the ability to edit... that should have been "with a new moon".

    Yeah it's pretty much 100% clouds here. Well, here's hoping for the 2018 new moon and the Perseids. :neutral:

    Wah! I hate the fact that I have to skip my annual vacation to Chicago Comic Con just because we're moving. Adulting sucks.
