who wants to go out tonight and check out the meteor shower?????
2 shooting stars per minute.....if I was still 20 I might need some mind altering drugs....but I'm old now...so....a lounge chair and smoke is all I need

Yea, whats the deal with that? Is there a specific time or direction we're supposed to look? I might take a drive up the mountain here in Tucson and check it out.

I looked out last night. I could not see a damned thing. I have in my 40 years never seen a meteor shower/ shooting star etc. Nothing.... But i soo want to.

It'll just have to be a late night for the kids. Lounge chairs and late night barbecue.
