Something weird on our sun!
« on: March 14, 2012, 10:16:30 AM »
Apparently they're taking video of the sun all of the time and this thing just showed up:

They're asking for people to speculate on what it is; I'm thinking it's a big mosquito!

As you said, if you see it Kansas, check with Dorothy! (and get your small dogs inside, quick!)
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF COUNTRIES
Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system

I'm glad somebody clarified the situation! whew.gif I believe that I'm reminded of a line in John Prine's song about Christmas in Prison ("spots in ths sun") but unfortunately that's been blocked by our firewall here so I can't quote it!

I already knew to avoid Kansas, now I'm worried about areas where the (ironically named) lunatics might live! laughhard.gif It's even scarier to realize that those people can vote! eek2.gif Someone needs to re-install the filter on the Gene pool!!!
