Crumby' s Telescope Tomfoolery Notes - Comet Holmes

Lleu Llaw! You need to go set up the telescopery gear pointing generally NE. We are fixing to espy the Comet Holmes, maybe. Uh. Go on and set up now. Then we may actually espy the comet around 10 PM or a little later. Lleu Llaw! No dilly-dallying. Set up the big Mak. Then, if this comets any count, we shall set up the Great Red Tube tomorrow night. Be sure to put a cushion in the double decker lawn chair, fer me. Other items you shall need to set up besides the cushion include, the Froggy-went-a- courtin' head lamp. The dern good fer 10,000 year flashlight is broke. So set up the head lamp. Set up the plastic Pepsi table. Then too, since ye have plenty of time, set up all the ep boxes. Who the heck knows what ep to use on a comet? Do you get all that Lleu Llaw?

Yes, Master Crumby.

OK. Bueno. Now this particular comet is in Perseus below Mirfak, or however that's spelled, and above Capella in Auriga. Here. I have printed you out a map. Use this map if you get confused Lleu Llaw.

Yes, Master Crumby.

OK, Lleu Llaw. I don't want any foul up on this comet similar to what happened during the wretched Mercury crossing. So fix everything up so that I shall not be disappointed.

Yes, Master Crumby.

Head on out now Lleu Llaw.

Yes, Master Crumby.

Later.

Gracious sakes alive! Come along everyone. Lleu Llaw has espied the great comet.

So out we all went to espy the comet. This particular comet is worth a look see. For starters, it's big and bright. Plus, the glow surronding it is really big, maybe 50 times the diameter of the star like comet, itself. Yip, yip, yip for a spectacular comet.

For the record, Lleu Llaw first espied it around 9:20 PM.
