Hey SANTA! Just stick that beauty under my tree anytime!!!

Merry Christmas

Shouldn't a real christmas tree M24 actually have candles and not lights? Terrible that you modified it.

Merry Christmas!!!!! BTW the eclipse doesn't happen until 10:40 pm est I think....

Those ARE water colors, n'est pas?

We still have a few hours to go before the day is officialy over and it's the 22nd. Not safe yet.

I thought it might be the end last night about 21:00. Wind was blowing about 35 mph and it was raining hard. lights flickered a dozen times and then went out. My first thought was "Damn Mayans can't get it right. They're 3 hours early". Power came back on at about 00:45. Problem was a tree blown down across the lines.

Had a lot of that around here in the wee hours last night, but the power stayed on.

It's only 8PM here on the West Coast. California might still fall into the ocean. Then Jerry Brown can add another new tax.

Saw that happen in that movie, the ocean, not the tax thing.

JYD, I remember a photo that you posted of a group of mosins stacked up together in a pyramid. Add some snow, garland and lights to them and they would make a great christmas tree.

Great idea, but that involves dragging five 91/30's out into the woods in snow were there are no trails, dragging 700 yards of power cord or a 120 pound power genny, plus the lights. It would take an entire day, I would freeze, hmmmmm.....let me think on that....done..no

Finloq, it looks like we survived! someone said that if the Mayans were so smart...... they'd still be here!

Now to go to all my friends and family and beg for my stuff back!

That's where someone well versed in the intricacies of photoshop would come in handy.

Cool pic..

well....here is a thought...the sun is 93 million miles away..the milky way edge is 1000 light years from earth..why would we be so silly and think we would feel the effect of the eclipse the moment it happened?? i would think it would take time to get here...just sayin....
