Heard that.  We apparently share the same results.

I sincerely hope that we continue to share those results when it comes time to hit too! Wouldn't that be a story for the media to ruin our newly found financial independence with!?  :big grin:  2 guys in different states win without sharing their numbers, (I do quick picks), and they know each other!  :biggrin:

I do quick picks too; so there's hope.  ;D

OUTSTANDING! I will hope for just such an event to transpire this Saturday then. (And increase the level of soul crushing disappointment I experience when it doesn't!)  :rolleyes: :biggrin:

"You've probably noticed that opinion pollsters go out of their way to include as many morons as possible in surveys ... I think it's dangerous to inform morons about what their fellow morons are thinking. It only reinforces their opinions. And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them." -- Scott Adams

In other words: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  ;)

 Today is the summer solstice...the longest day of the year. Tonight will also be a full moon, which in June is known as a 'strawberry moon' because it's the historic beginning of the strawberry season.

The last time the two events coincided was in 1967. The next occurrence won't happen until 2062, so don't miss it! For many, it will be a once in a lifetime event.

Jupiter and Saturn are also clearly visible in the night sky right now.  They were in close proximity to the almost full moon a couple of nights ago.

I hate to say I haven't looked up in a while -- except to notice the full moon last night; couldn't miss it just above the treetops when I looked out the front door. My excuse is that not only am I dealing with a very difficult person, I have lost a dear friend, and the latter hurts most.

Anyway, Locutus, thanks for sky watching and reporting. I'll take time tonight to sit on the front steps and look up if there aren't too many neighbors out, coming and going, etc.

Hello Duke! Thank you and good to see you! It's been a while.  :yes: 

I will be headin' for the hills of home on Thursday. When I'm there with friends and family (some in the graveyard) I forget everything but the moment. Some of us drive around -- last year we drove from Route 52 in Bluewell to the turn towards Ashland, then up and over the mountain, through McComas, Montcalm and on to Princeton.
