Eclipse this, science that, high blood pressure will put you into an early grave before you’re 45….when did we become so dependent on science? Whatever happened to the can do spirit of the modern man? When did it become so uncool to roll up your sleeves, tighten your work boots, and put in a hard, honest days work?

Science has become a crutch for humanity, and to prove we should be independent from the bane of science, I shall stare at the eclipse for a full 10 minutes this afternoon to prove that the human spirit is greater than some egghead in a lab.

Tell me, if the sun is blocked out by the moon, than why is it dangerous? I’ve stared at a shadow before and I’ve lived to tell the tale. Seems like this is just a big scam by science and the sunglasses industry to get me to shell out $25 to buy a “magical” pair of glasses to protect my eyes from the harmful UV rays that are evidently being blocked out by the moon? Everyone knows the moon comes out at night, what makes today so special? Ever think of that?

Well let me tell you something…these American eyes of mine don’t run. I love the USA, I bleed red, white and blue, and science isn’t going to tell me what I can and can’t look at.

This is the land of the free, the home of the brave…I’ll stare at what I want, when I want.

Science can go take a long walk off a short pier for all I care.
