Harsh Mistress?

The moon is in the news. Scientific American has an interesting article - Flip-Flop: Did the Moon Do a Turnabout?. National Geographic has info on a "Missing" Moon Linked to Major 1761 Eruption?. This one even has a video link. HollywoodBitchSlap (as you might suspect the language here can be profane at times) gave the movie Underworld: Rise of the Lycans a really bad review. You could say this review is on the harsh side of the moon. Why mention this movie? It's about werewolves. You know the moon connection? Does the name Lon Chaney , Jr., ring a bell? Or Warren Zevon? Do a search in Google for Earth's Moon and you can find many interesting sites about Luna Selene.

Enjoy tomorrow. It will be cold in our area. Later.

"The silver light, which, hallowing tree and tower,
Sheds beauty and deep softness o'er the whole,
Breathes also to the heart, and o'er it throws
A loving languor which is not repose."

~Lord Byron
