It Is A Super Moon

      Well, it is a clear night in Tahoma, by the shores of Lake Tahoe.  So, with the temp now at about 36 degrees F, take a stroll, look across the placid lake surface, look at the moon:  it's as close as it gets to Mother Earth.  That is, about 229,000 miles away.  Yes, not that far in galaxy distances, but, hey, it's all we've got that reachable(notwithstanding Mr. Musk and Space X).
       Maybe somebody will return to the moon.  Perhaps the Chinese will use it as a stepping stone(a step?) to another planet in our solar system.  Maybe Mars?  Or how about Jupiter-that's a big one and hard to miss.  Maybe Vlad Putin will send a few rubles to the moon with a flag and claim rights, kind of like what he did in Crimea and Ukraine.  Not much going on in Eastern Ukraine(DonBass region).  I hear there's still some shooting going on occasionally, but the locals are sort of tired of all the BS and would like it to be over.
        Meanwhile, the DOJ has designated a Russyan white supremecist organization as a criminal enterprise of sorts.  That puts its members and supporters on notice that they will henceforth be actively observed and legally scrutinized by policing organizations worldwide.
Watch the moon and have a nice night.
