 too bad it might be a cloudy night.  
 
 anyone got any good eclipse stories?
 
 i went to hungary in 1999 for the full solar eclipse.  2 minutes and 22 seconds of total darkness - the stars came out and the birds completely freaked.  watching the day turn into night that fast, then go back, was a mind-f*ck... almost as much as the 7-day electronic music festival that immediately followed it.  probably one of the best times of my life.

I had an ex-girlfriend who drove a silver Mitsubishi Eclipse. I have stories, but they're not fit for a public messageboard. PM me. Hot, hot stuff.

I was in Putre, Chile, in 1994 for a total solar eclipse. One of the most amazing things I have ever seen. I talked with several foreign people that traveled around the world chasing total solar eclipses, and their stories were pretty incredible. I hope I have the opportunity to see another one in the future.

the last day of classes my junior year of college, there was a full solar eclipse.
 i got to watch it through a welding helmet.

I once experienced a total eclipse of the heart.
