There’s total lunar eclipse tonight, visible from most of the US (assuming clear skies, of course) at a reasonable hour. Last one until 2007.

More October Surprises
In the last week of the campaign, they’re coming fast and furious. Iowahawk has the latest roundup:
DRUNK BUSH DRAGGED JAMES BYRD BEHIND AWOL JET
Then-airman George W. Bush was reprimanded by superiors for a drunken 1972 AWOL incident in which he dragged a helpless James Byrd behind his F-101, according to a new Texas Air National Guard document found in an Abeline, Texas Kinkos restroom.
The newly unsealed document, which several experts have now verified as typewritten, resurrected nagging questions about Bush’s disputed controversial “military service,” his drug and alcohol abuse, and his role in the slaying of Byrd.
The document shows that Bush earned a stern reprimand from a commanding officer, 6-Star General Smith, who remarks that “Dude, that is so not cool.”
Smith goes on to recommend that Bush “freeze the dude’s body, so like later on you can be governor and blame it on some rednecks, and then have those guys executed.”

Screed Alert
James Lileks is less than impressed with Andrew Sullivan’s poorly-thought-out and naive endorsement of John Kerry.

Rethinking The Outer Space Treaty?
I hope that this story is true, and if it is, it’s one more reason for me to support the reelection of the president. It’s certainly not something that a Kerry administration would consider (except possibly to make things worse).

Dumb Science
Orson Scott Card isn’t impressed by the Kerry campaign’s science policy or politics.
Problem Solved
It was, as I suspected, a bad power supply (and it had probably been going bad for a long time, which is why I had the previous mobo problems).
All better now.
