Poppadum, poppadum, po-ppa-dum

Poppadum, poppadum, po-ppa-dum,
Please bring our teachers back to school
We been languishing and anguishing for so long
And everybody is already down with flu

Poppadum, poppadum, po-ppa-dum,
Lure them and cure them of this jam
We stuck in the middle with a twiddle-thumbing Diddle
Saying "Later, agitator." What a sham!

The Night Perseus Tricked The Moon

I love staring at the night sky. If I had my way, I'd spend half a year at the North Pole doing nothing but staring at the heavens, night after night. Till then..

And thus this little celestial circular. Fellow night-sky lovers, do not forget to open your window tonight. Every year on the twelfth night of August, the earth enters the orbit of the comet Swift-Tuttle. A stream of the debris from the comet streaks our sky across the constellation Perseus. That's why this beautiful phenomenon is also called the Perseid meteor shower. The lunar shine usually gets in the way of seeing any meteor showers in their entirety, but the Perseid meteor shower is special. If you see the sky tonight between nine and eleven p.m. you will know why.

"Earthgrazers are meteors that approach from the horizon and skim the atmosphere overhead like a stone skipping across the surface of a pond," explains Cooke. "They are long, slow and colorful — among the most beautiful of meteors." He notes that an hour of watching may net only a few of these at most, but seeing even one can make the whole night worthwhile.
