On the tire of my car the other day, all day. I went back after dark and he was gone. I saw another on a pole out front this morning, but he is gone. I'm curious if he was a snack for a bird or decided to find a better place to hide.

I noticed what I assumed was a smudge on my glasses. I tried to clean it a couple of times, but it wouldn't budge. It was hard to see (not being able to use the glasses to see the glasses), but I noticed when I really looked that it seemed to have structure instead of being just a smudge. I then noticed that the same seemed to exist in the same spot on the other lens. I had no idea. It's not visible except at just the right angle with just the right light.

cecropia moth, North America's largest native moth. Per wikipedia, some have been reported with wingspans of 5-7" (mine weren't that big). I had this one on a post one evening, then the next morning, there were 3 all within 3-6' of each other on the same pole.

Also on facebook, I don't know what it says, but I assume it's something like "THIS is a burger worthy of a king. The rest of you just step away from your grills."

Gibson should really provide a hard case for the prices they ask. A real shame as they know about the headstock issues.

They need to add a volute to the back of the neck. Would hep prevent this... Gibson is seriously overpriced for what they make.

Eraserhead isnt meant to be taken literally, like any other Lynch movie. He cant get the baby to eat, it cries without end, it gets sick and he cant improve the situation. Its all about fear. Just very abstract.

In heaven, everything is fine. Brilliant movie. One of my favorites.

Thanks for the explanation. I love many abstract paintings and objects, but I just couldn't get engaged with this film. But I guess that is a key concept with abstract art: did it elicit an emotional response or not? And my revulsion was one of the reactions Lynch was trying to get?

Tipping prevention? "I just rolls!"
