TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE TONIGHT. You know, if you run outside and shoot arrows at it and make lots of noise, the demon devouring the moon will drop his prey and run off. This is true and verfiable. It works every, single time, guaranteed.

Prove me wrong, I dare you. I am a graduate of the government school system and I know exactly what I'm talking about.

(In the meantime, here's a nice little compendium of eclipse lore by Ted Pedas and Marcy Pedas Sigler, the folks who originated the "Cruise to Darkness" concept of sailing out to meet an eclipse.)
