I've been wanting to replace the tripod for my, uh, telescope (I call it a
monocular because it isn't all that powerful), but I keep putting it off
thinking I'll get a real telescope.  Every time I think about doing that, I
walk outside and the sky is overcast, making it impossible to see the
heavens.  Back in 1985, one of the locals here drove to a nearby town where
the sky was clear so he could take a picture of Halley's Comet.  It was
around 02:00 when he took the photo.  It was spectacular.
