Quick and dirty photo of the sun going down, also heading southward in its annual journey. Pretty soon we’ll be at Halloween (a cross-quarter day). Gratuitous shot of Cygnus X-1. She is dirty but she is happy.

Cygnus is in the street because the GG was expected home (and he did arrive) and he needed to back Mooon Yooonit and the Lyme Lounge into the driveway.

I don’t have a whole lot today… I was disappointed last night when I figured out that Lessons in Chemistry is a weekly series that had just started and I couldn’t watch the next episode until Friday. So, whaddoo I wanna watch? Hmmm. OHHH. There is a second season of Foundation. Yes yes yes yes.

The Foundation series (maybe you already know) is based on Isaac Asimov’s Foundation trilogy. It is almost NOTHING like the Asimov books. I read Asimov’s books way back when. This show does not follow his books at all although it touches on many of the themes and events. His early books compiled a sorta connected series of short stories he published in magazines or wherever. That stuff was totally edited out of the TV series as near as I can figger.

At any rate, if you are a sci-fi fan and love Asimov, I recommend this. With the caveat that it is often VERY violent.
