weird i totally did not quite astroguy lol

I didn't read this until just now (Dec 16, morning). Yes, rain, snow and wind (separately or all at once) are the bitter enemies of luminarias or farolitos. Fortunately it's usually only cold at night around here. Collect paper lunch bags, some sand for each (ballast), small candle placed inside each in sand, set up during the day along walkways and up to front doors, and then in the evening take long matches or something similar and light the candles. These are usually set up the night before Christmas and are to show (not mean) Baby Jesus and entourage where to go. Aka, posadas.  Some people have switched to plastic bags and small electric lights, which may be safer, and can be put on the edges of buildings, roofs, walls. The city sells tickets and sends big, noisy (at times smelly diesel) city busses along roads in the older, fancier parts of town, taking people to see all the expensive decorations.  Luminarias/farolitos are also used in smaller towns and villages, and are probably home made, nicer and more meaningful to residents.

Oh, and I personally don't do all this as I'm a pagan and also live in an apartment complex.

Wed/Thu Dec 17 – Mark Pinkham (Replay from Sept 30)

Now I'm really glad I ended my sub late last month. Seems no one is even trying any more on the Other Side. I may be wrong, we may get an announcement ("No show tonight due to RCH being snowed in and his water and gas pipes frozen" because lows at night in the city are hovering around 20F, and so are much colder in the foothills), but I'll be surprised.  :\ On the bright side, I won't have to set my alarm to wake me up to turn on my recorder Heather's and Rense's shows look boring, too.

[K_Dubb]

Ha! Replay tonight.

You should release your next Exposing Pseudoastronomy to coincide with a Hoagie repeat and we can all listen.  I will stock up on the BURN gifs.

I'm on travel this week (American Geophysical Union conference -- 20,000-25,000 people crammed into the Moscone center complex in San Francisco) but am working on the next episode, which will likely be a 2-parter on the flat earth arguments.

Good Lord how can you get two shows out of that?  Look forward to it; talk about a silk purse from a sow's ear.

Have fun in SF!

One about the top side of the earth and one about the bottom side?

[K_Dubb]

One about the top side of the earth and one about the bottom side?

Haha yes!  The guy never explained what's under there.

Maybe it's like the A side and the B side of a record.  I think we're the B side.

I'm astonished that he's doing this. Maybe the plug got pulled.

Are you really surprised, and i don't think it has since keith is making money off hoagie.

[trostol]

You'd think though that while he's trying to get the prime real estate he'd refrain from phoning it in.

Gotta be a bad sign.  Hoagie strikes me as one who will try to win by going off and pouting rather than stepping it up.

If you'll allow me to pontificate for a moment . . . I think you're right. I think it's a bad sign too.

Keith is probably losing money with Heather though.

Singing negro spirituals. It's THE only way!

[GuerrillaUnReal]

Last night was a pure propaganda show for Hoags that was designed to show his overwhelming support and beg for money. He's not going to waste his time doing an actual show now with so much uncertainty.

When will Massa Art sell us?

Hopefully she gets weird calls again so i can tempt you into tuning in.

Tomorrow ... Yes ... Yes ... Yes ...

Hands down that may be the hardest I've ever laughed before. I'm still laughing every time I think about it.
