Yes Roy. It is 11:33 PM in Tucson right now and the planet is blocking the sun... it is dark outside. But it is only temporary, you are correct.

Murph,

Thank You for your comments.
(Some do read my contributions...)
I have been considering "Moore MYmusings" (or some variation of that,)
to cover some of my ramblings, random bits, "Bovine Secretions",
other things worth passing on,
'Little Things to Think About', et al.
Would that work for you?, (and all?).

A local school administrator with the same last name, (no relation,)
heads his posts in the local throwaway, "More From Moore",
so that is taken (for me).
I don't want any association, positive or negative, with him.

There IS a Universal 'thread' that connects us all.

It Is NOT the 'Internet'.

This Forun does seem to facilitate our interconnectivity more easily.

------
(I would like to extend an extra added THANK YOU! to you and all who have rekindled my interest in the English language.
I wish I had this intense interest when I was in school.
(Some will understand distractions caused by LIONEL trains and the ways female classmates filled out their sweaters.))

(First runs of "AMERICAN BANDSTAND" and ANNETTE added to the mix...)
(A.B. started the same time as H.S. let out.
Best time I could do with my WESTERN FLYER was ~ 20 min.for 1.8 mi. to the time the DUMONT got warmed up.)

On 08/21.2017 The moon will temporarily block block some sunlight. When the planet blocks sunlight that's a nightly occurrence.

Actually the planet has rotated and is not facing the sun.

Thus, giving us a good, clear (if it's not cloudy) look directly into the darkness of Space that surrounds us.

It's not all dark.
Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hopes that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

You mean the sun does not revolve around earth. :wink: :mrgreen: And all this time I thought the earth was the center of the universe. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: No wonder we are doomed, we can't control anything. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

And , oh, how we love those points of light. We are drawn to them, just like we are drawn to a light if we are lost in the night or in a storm. Light represents Hope to us, among many other comforts and reassurances.

Correctomundo! (O' course, he does have that hair-do, though, which is still good for a laugh [or is it chagrin?] )

We have no sense of humor that we are aware of.
