    Disappointment

    guys, if this is in bad form or taste. please DELETE. more humorous than on topic.....

    a little background is in order...

    i have a neighbor that likes to drink and talk about the bible. the more he drinks, the more he knows... anyway, he has been talking about the Blood Moon for a month and what it's meaning and the surrounding effects are going to be. yes, it was neat to see the last Lunar Eclipse in my lifetime, but i have to say it was BORING!

    he has sent me all kinds of youtube videos to watch and articles too read on the subject and has asked my opinion. it was as follows... 'any IDIOT can stand on a soapbox and attract a crowd to listen to what is being said.' i feel disappointment. i was/am prepared for NADA. it was like my birthday or New Years Eve, well without all the fireworks.

    is the world ending where your at? need/want company? LMAO!

    kicked back with some friends and watched the moon... rose as expected, eclipsed as expected, coloured as expected, and I went to bed after. no worries!

    I sat out in the hot tube with the wife and had a cocktail. The moon came up and I went to bed. When I got up this morning we are still here.

    So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.

    All we saw was a red halo thru the light cloud cover. Poked my head out once in a while to listen for screams, sirens and gunfire. No more than usual.
    Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.

    I must have had my head in the sand, as I didn't hear about it until 2 days before, and I didn't hear any dooms day prediction reports about it. It was a total bust due to cloud cover, so I guess I will get a reprieve, and get to live another day, or 2, or 3, or 4, ... I never was one to believe in others BS.

    Boy, I always miss the end of world predictions. I never get any proper time to panic. Can we make a sticky where we can post upcoming apocalypse dates?

    Just black and white words on a screen.
    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes
