When Is Disbelief A Sin?
Is She For Real?

Did You See The Sky Last Night?

If not, try to take a look tonight. The Moon-Jupiter-Venus conjunction is beautiful. I browsed around the net and found some great photos. Here are two from Weather Underground—click on them for the full-size images.

I was vaguely aware of having seen a news story or two about this, but wasn’t even thinking about it when I walked out after work yesterday and saw something very much like the first picture above over in the western sky, except that what I saw was much sharper and clearer, with the sky absolute black and the moon and planets very bright silver. When I got home I walked down to the bay (freezing) and saw something a bit like the second picture, except that the wind was blowing hard and the water very rough.
