and if the market DOESN’T collapse, this buyer is boned.
Off to Jericho. Beer and salmonburger, yummy.

Why I love my friends (part 976)
This just in from the Dalai Jarmo:
Last night was a 100% lunar eclipse, so while watching it I got an idea. The next 100% SOLAR eclipse will be in Siberia just east of KOMI in the Yamalo-Nenetskyi autonomous regions of Russia all which is just somewhat east of where I was born. My father in law has made numerous trips to the Komi region and has agreed to be the tour organizer.
We would travel to London by cheap flights, (well cheapest anyway), then fly by BUZZ air to Mikkeli Finland. From there we would take the Siberian Express train to Komi, and then something else to get to Nadym in the Yamalo-Nenetskyi autonomous region. Then we watch the 100% solar eclipse and come back home.
The peak eclipse is on August 1, 2008 at 10:21:08.1 AM, and the eclipse lasts for a couple of minutes.
Okay, I am comPLETEly nuts, but this actually sounds like, you know, a plan!
Sleeping in was not an option this morning…
The view from my balcony just now.

I realized there are disadvantages to being one of those ‘excitable about science and nature’ types. Also I jumped a mile when some son of a bitch started howling at the moon a couple of floors above me just as I was walking by.
But the eclipse was pretty.
