"Mark your calendar.  On Sunday, May 20th, the sun is going to turn into a ring of fire.  It's an annular solar eclipse--the first one in the USA in almost 18 years. "

Thanks for the advance notice, looking forward to it.

Oooooooooooooo it's a SUNDAY too!
Maybe I can coordinate it so I am reeling in that AOTY hog at exactly the same time as the eclipse.

Here around the bay and even in Sac. you wont see the annular effect. 

 Still cool though.  Dont forget your welding lenses !

Sweet, that's my b-day. I will check it out, but I will surely not remember it.
