I often get asked if I'm going to look at a meteor shower with a telescope. I say no, you wouldn't watch a ball game through a swizzle stick!
Any good clear night, especially after midnight (you're on the forward facing side of the earth then) you'll see several meteors, at least, every hour.

We got fogged in here, and I have come down with a killer cold, so I wasn’t quite in the mood for a road trip further inland to clearer skies. Eh, I’ll see plenty more meteors in the future…

Oh how I miss my sweet Salish Sea
Sure, tomorrow when the rest of us are all staggering around blind and being eaten by giant carnivorous plants, you'll laugh.
You know you will.

Attack of the pursy-ids.
How studly was this Perseus guy anyway, if the only girl he got was chained to a rock?
…granted, that sounds like a pretty hot first date.
Those x-ray glasses available at the Wonkette store don't help?
Next to useless! All I can see with those things is ladies underwear
at least you won't look as dorky as the Glassholes
I heard that term was made up by astroturfers, but still good by my lights. I don't really mind the tech at all, it's how some folks use it.
