BFM clan only scrims were my favorite. I was so proud to make it into the ranks of this clan, but proud enough to let that be my downfall.
I am only happy that I got to experience such a legendary clan.

FYI: Here's the NASA data sheet about it. (Care of http://mreclipse.com/ , btw....)

I don't like that the video doesn't give the date, saying only "Saturday," tho.  (I hope they're smart enough to take down the video on Sunday then!  ::)  :bang: )

FYI: It's on Saturday, December 10th, 2011....  ::)

Clear as a bell here, and doppler radar says it should stay that way for a while, too, so we should get a great - and full view, as we're right on the cusp of the U3 event boundary - starting at ~6am local time (SF Bay Area.)

And yes, I WILL be up to watch it with some of my family joining me, too.... (I bribed them with promises to make one of my fantastic breakfast spreads!)

...I sure hope that I can stand being away from Skyrim for that long tho....  ::)

Being a good racer in Halo isn't just about getting the best times. You have to know where your teammates and enemies are, and most of all... how to be crafty! XD -nods-

Oh... and "v.v" = sad face.





Props to Plixity for the first sig, Slayton for the Season XIII trophy sig, and Jane for the banner! Thx guys! ^.^

Went up and watched it in 10-15 minute chunks from just inside a balcony window* with a nice hot mug of cocoa....

T'was cool that it started right on the upper portion of the moon, too.

P.S. The next total lunar eclipse isn't until 2014.

* I did go out on the balcony a couple of times to enjoy the sharp air, too, tho.
