Here's some red meat for the GFY nutters out there...

I stopped going to my boy's corp events years ago but I remember the last one I attended (in Turks, try to have fun with people who are basically ruling a modern Rhodesia and find that state of affairs peachy) I got completely fed up and told every pompous fuck who asked what I did (waiting until my husband's back was turned before hitting on me while mocking everything I'm about) that I was an ancient alien theorist

I recall that night as being very peaceful after that, they left me alone and I hung out with the bartender who was an actual friend until the event was done and time to ditch the heels and go dancing

incidentally your pic is a perfect tagline for the history channel

Wow man, How close it could be to people like us?

I´ll keep an eye out for this! Gary bought me a telescope for our anniversary 2 weeks ago. It´s not a huge scope, just a starter scope, 1 mtr long with 90mm lens, but it´s great to see the rings of saturn and the amazing colours in Jupiter. It also is great to view double stars 5 light years away...

I´m so looking forward to seeing what ever it is that orbits or travels across our system!

If everything is upside down, you have a decent scope.

Check again. Are you sure it's not a bottle of wine?

it´s a refractor 90mm, like the middle level for a dedicated astronomer, or top level for a beginner, anything less than a 70mm is not worth looking through, i.e. Saturns rings would look blurred.

i´d only wanted to look at the craters on the moon and maybe look at some stars sometimes, Gary always goes overboard when buying presents for me

After studying scopes before purchasing the right one, it seems the reflector scopes are generally better for looking at galaxies & deep space, refractors directing on detail, for the similar detail a refractor 90mm shows, a reflector would need to be at least 130mm.

Anyway, looking forward to seeing this huge lump of crap flying through space in a months time

why would he buy me a bottle of wine, we keep bottles of bubbly and litres of wine in the fridge...

another great reason to enjoy Spain
