Intravenous agnostic.

There was supposed to be an eclipse this morning. Some great awe inspiring moment of zen or something. So I went to the supermarket. The hotel sent out messages to all the rooms telling the people not to look directly at it, cuz its bad for the eyes. Isn’t it always bad to look at the sun? I don’t see why an eclipse would emit special eye-frying rays that doesn’t normally happen… or maybe during an eclipse everyone has the urge to look up like idiots and sizzle their eyeballs.

So this morning on my way to the supermarket I passed one guy who had pointed his huge binoculars straight at the sun. He obviously didn’t get the memo. Great idea by the way, cuz the binoculars probably magnify the sun or whatnot and burn a whole right through his head.

Then on the way back I looked at the side of the road and burst out laughing. There was a guy squatted on the side of the road, holding a cardboard box over his head with and looking up at the sun. hmm. No comment.

Well I never got to see the eclipse. Big disappointment. I wonder if cardboard-box guy is still out there.



I know, its not an eclipse. but eclipses are stupid anyways.
