Older middle-aged man, sufficiently experienced in life with a few rough edges to show for it, but with an optimistic view on life as a whole. Love to chat with those in Texas or out, just keep the drama away. Political talk will be duly ignored, except in the rooms specifically for them (and I'm darn opinionated!). Stay calm, stay focused, stay healthy, stay happy!

PS: If you want your pictures done like those on my Picture section, give me a PM. They are free for those on Wire!

I decided to produce a cover song to a popular K-Pop song from 2009, "Don't Forget" by Baek Ji Young. Since this is an unofficial cover, I declined to name the contract singer. The original was sung by Ms. Baek, a female. The lyrics were translated from Korean to English Cadential, which is a method of translation that matches the spirit and exact cadence and intonations as the original artist and language, as opposed to a literal translation. If anyone can let me know how to get in contact with Baek Ji Young or the company who controls her song rights, I'd be extremely grateful.

Without further ado, "Don't Forget."

This is a picture taken of the sun during the total eclipse on April 8. I was barely within the band of totality, in which any point within the band would be able to see the moon completely covering the disc of the sun itself. To be exact, the band is a little over 118 miles (~180 km) wide as it traverses the surface of the earth, and I'm located about 1800 meters, or a little over a mile from the edge.

To that end, while totality is complete, I was still close enough to the edge for there not to be complete darkness as was the areas within the middle 10-15% of the band. I took this picture at the moment of totality. The picture, however, could not adjust the proper lighting perspective, as it appears that the sunlight completely engulfs that of the moon. But this picture was enough to show the magnitude of the sun's brightness was far less than normal.

At my area in the totality band, the sun's brightness was equivalent to that of viewing it from the planet Jupiter at high noon. Speaking of Jupiter, one can see it slightly above and to the left of the sun, and Venus to the lower right. A couple of hours later the sun would have been full brightness and this picture could not even be taken

Anyway, I saw a sight that less than 1 in 10,000 people in the world will see in their lifetime, for that I am grateful.

April 8 is Solar Eclipse Day! Many of you will be in the path of totality, which I am as well as most people in DFW and much of the I-35 corridor, then northeast through much of the United States. In addition, a far greater area will see a partial eclipse.

So with that...WARNING!!! Do NOT LOOK AT THE ECLIPSE WITHOUT PROTECTION!! Specifically do NOT look at them without eyeglasses SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED for watching the eclipse. As spectacular as this day may be, there will unfortunately be hundreds, if not thousands, of people who will suffer vision impairment, some of it PERMANENTLY. This is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.

In addition, if you drive through areas where there is totality, be careful of other drivers. While there won't be any sudden loss of sunlight (it will be gradual just like day to dusk and then, from dawn to day), people may be affected by looking up WHILE DRIVING and SUDDENLY will not be able to see where they are going. I would be very careful on the road during this time, as well as SHORTLY AFTER as effects may be DELAYED.

With that in mind, if you do watch the eclipse, GET APPROVED EYEWEAR. Regular sunglasses WILL NOT CUT IT, and will probably be the reason most people do get vision impairment. GET APPROVED glasses.

The picture is the glasses I just got. I can not see the light out of them, except for the sun. Even then, they do not recommend more than a few seconds at a time for viewing. So again, enjoy the eclipse, it's literally once in a lifetime event for many. And most important, BE SAFE so you can see my ugly mug!
