I was just going to make the down payment on the private island
when I realized I don't have the right finder bracket on my dob
for that scope, and dang it, I couldn't find one on AM :(

 Instead of spending $100K on an 8" Finder...
 how about getting in some Mars tonight.

I got layed off (yecch) then got my job back (yay) but then I got
promoted (yecch) and haven't had any time to observe or even say hi.

But tonight, Hi! And if there are clouds, I'll observe the bloody
clouds.

Seeing? Fie. A wobbly photon is better than no photon at all.
