  • Friday the 13th Full Moon

    A full moon on Friday the 13th is spooky enough, but hold on to your black cats. September's full moon will also be a "micromoon."

    Skywatchers in Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones will get a view of the full moon tonight (Sept. 13) at 11:32 p.m., 10:32 p.m. and 9:32 p.m., respectively, while East Coasters will see the moon at its fullest at 12:32 a.m. on the 14th. Regardless of time zone, the moon will appear just a bit dimmer than usual (eerie!), because it will be at apogee, or its farthest distance from Earth.

    That means that the moon will appear about 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than when it is at its closest point to Earth, which is known as perigee.

              I saw a micro-werewolf.

              No, wait, that was my schnauzer.

                No, he's normally a micro-wolf. If he's a lycanthrope, he's a wolfwere, and changed into a teenager for a bit. Was he all angsty?

                  He is only 8 months old so that is a teenager in Schnauzer years.

                      Hmm, I saw a werewolf drinking a piña colada at Trader Vic's - and his hair was perfect.

                      Wait a sec. Jesse is always going on about his "perfect hair." Does this mean that he's a werewolf?!?!?1?

                        Yes, that's why I said teenager.

                          Speak for yourself. I spent the night running away from a psycho in a hockey mask.
                          "When the Western world accepted Christianity, Caesar conquered; and the received text of Western theology was edited by his lawyers…. The brief Galilean vision of humility flickered throughout the ages, uncertainly…. But the deeper idolatry, of the fashioning of God in the image of the Egyptian, Persian, and Roman imperial rulers, was retained. The Church gave unto God the attributes which belonged exclusively to Caesar."
