... "Where the **** IS MY ROOF"
As i gaze up to the stars above, i think to my self....
LOL, that was out of the blue..... pretty funny though
still a little off topic, but i really hate all the light pollution, even in when you go out of town where i live all the farmhouses have streetlamps near their houses (on the property)...
yes...... i go to Memphis alot seen how i can be there in about 40 minutes you can't see even one star there
dosn't bother me though not that bad
dosn't bother me though not that bad
I used to live at a really peaceful place where I can go stargazing whenever I want.. those were the days!! Now I live a pretty big city, and all the light/air/sound pollution just makes me want to break something... 
I think some band made a song about stars

Yah, I agree; I wish the farms or at least regular country houses didn't have those lights. You have to go way into the middle of a cornfield(after harvest) to see the moon, or at least that's how it seems.
The modern consumer is a big sightless moth. Without the light, sound and visual pollution of the 21st century to guide us we'd be lost, breaking our wings and leaving dusty trails as we dragged our bodies forward to bang our heads against whatever simulacrum of society we could find.
As i gaze up to the stars above, i think to my self; what a corny name for a topic. 
Haha, l like that 
and this "" is almost smiling, which is a very big deal indeed, remember that .

Ah, here we go. Courtesy of Funnies.com:
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they were exhausted and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Holmes asked. Watson pondered for a minute.
"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that the Lord is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent!"

When you look up at the stars, it's a very calm and relaxing feeling. I really like and and I wish I could just lay down on a clean patch of grass and just stare at the stars. It's a really nice feeling. It makes you think and wonder how big the universe really is. We will never know how big the universe is.
Interesting how people think that you can see millions of stars when you look up with the naked eye. Try counting them. If you have a really dark sky and no moon, and no trees in the way you might count about four thousand. There are fewer visible with the naked eye than you might think.
