Oh come on now...the real joke is that Trump likely watched it again without proper shades. Is it too much to ask that he's now legally blind? :sunshine: :147:

I knew the centre of the universe was going to get an eyeful but that is just an amazing photo. Thanks for sharing.

I do get kick out of reporters when they say once in a lifetime event. Total Eclipse happens fairly often if one is willing to travel.

I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.
It appears US voters hated Woke more than they hated Trump.

Awesome picture, but either it's a complete fake, or I missed April, May and part of June. :130:
It's fake...

PS. I was told I could look at the eclipse through a colander.
I tried it but it strained my eyes!

Well now I know why you were looking for a church last month... you heard about the eclipse and didn't want to miss the rapture.

P.S. The rapture was not even a theological concept until the 1800s, so it's not exactly something one finds in the Bible, at least not as it was understood for 1800 years.

according to some, hmm, fringe groups it heralds the end of Times
Bet they have a great excuse why it didn't happen :/
