I LOVE IT!!!
Most of you know that Game 4 of the World Series is tonight, but some of you may not know that a cool, calm and collected astronomical phenomenon will occur during the game: a lunar eclipse.
Wapo has the details...
The period of totality -- when the moon will be completely within the Earth's shadow -- will begin at 10:23 p.m. Eastern time and end at 11:45 p.m., according to a Web site maintained by Fred Espenak of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. The eclipse will reach totality about 11 p.m.
Coincidence? Nah... this was meant to be. I can already see Manny homering a grand-daddy-slam as the moon disappears from the sky...
As a Bostonian, well aware of the oft-cited end-times that will follow a Boston victory in the World Series, , I can't help but love it...
My friends, tonight, the Red Sox win the series and Boston is cursed no more...
It's just meant to be... don't miss it, or you'll regret it for ever!!!
GO SOX!
