If the Red Sox win the World Series tonight and the Curse of the Bambino is finally broken, will this mark the beginning of The End of Days? 
Other Possible Signs:
There's a Full Moon Tonight! And a Total Lunar Eclipse!!!
Arafat may be on his death bed.
Bush may win the Presidential election next Tuesday.
A Red Sox win tonight will set into motion a chain of events that will tear a hole in the fabric of the universe ushering in a new age of unspeakable evil and marking the beginning of the end of life as we know it. The fate of all mankind hangs in the balance.
Go see a show!

Posted: 10/27/04 at 10:25pmLook... up in the sky! The moon is almost completely eclipsed. It's beautiful. For God's sake... take a moment. The next full lunar eclipse isn't until March 3, 2007.

I didn't post because I was outside on my lawn freezing with a blanket and watching the eclipse, while reading about Louis XIV. I'm in Astronomy so it wa required but it was beautiful. It's just amazing how wonderful this world can be sometimes, you just have to take a step back and look around you.
Okay it's too late to be deep... and that sounded cheesy. Oh well!

I was just trying to catch the eclipse in the park at the end of my block...
I can't BEAR to watch the Sox win the Series. It kills me.

Posted: 10/28/04 at 10:15amThe eclipse was stunning, but it kept reminding me of my old hard contact lens days, in the early 80s, when one would slip off. Ouch.

"There's a Full Moon Tonight! And a Total Lunar Eclipse!!!"
Um... it's impossible to have a Total Lunar Eclipse withit it being a full moon first.

Posted: 10/28/04 at 11:11amYeah, but it IS possible to have a full moon and no total lunar eclipse. Curtain wrote the full moon part first, then the lunar eclipse to further describe the state of the moon. If they wrote "there's a total lunar eclipse! and a full moon tonight!" that would be stupid, but as curtain wrote it, it makes sense.
