| Hi all
Received an order the other day, and within 10 minutes the customer cancelled.
Fair enough, no problem - I cancelled the order.
Today had a message from the "Buyer" to say I had sent them a wrong part
- black instead of dark Bluish Grey.
Good try - but no cigar
Have to be alert in this game !!
Tracy

It was spectacular!! Here in Central Ohio is was forecasted to be cloudy, but
it was not cloudy at all. Superb visibility, and viewed from our own backyard
with the kids, in the path of totality, just over 2 minutes of full eclipse.
Saw Bailey's beads, felt it become chilly, and birds stopped chirping. Also
saw Jupiter and Venus pop up during the totality, just phenomenal. My second
total eclipse (after Germany 1999).

I was mowing but stopped for a bit to watch. Definitely an impressive sight.
We had clouds in the forecast as well but it ended up being pretty clear.

It was a good one this year. The filament was huge.

I think it's actually called a prominence when it extends out from the sun
and is seen against the black of space. A friend of our family had a major setup
for the event and pretty much had that same exact image from his camera. So damn
cool.

I was singing that in my back yard with my son while we were watching it happen
It was an absolutely amazing event. Breathtaking and beautiful. I will never forget it.
|
Very nice for you and son, Randy. Hopefully he'll omit from memory your rendition
of that entirely unremarkable song, from what otherwise seemed an amazing moment
for you both.
|
Since him and I were singing it together, hugging each other, and looking at
the sky in unison, I think it is safe to say that both of us got exactly what
we wanted from the moment. But thanks for trying to dictate what him and I should
get from our lives. You are such a pox on this forum.
|
Sorry if it came across to you as such, Randy. Honestly thought it was a nice
moment you shared, which I appreciated very much. Just poking fun at the song
and artist, perhaps awkwardly I admit. Sorry you feel that way about me too.

It was definitely incredible here in Ohio! We were also predicted to have a somewhat
cloudy day, but it was absolutely beautiful out. Bright blue skies and just a
few scattered clouds. Not to mention that we finally had a rather nice warm day
to go with it, too!
