I’m going to go see the eclipse next week, and I want to video tape myself doing something ridiculous. For example, I could enact some ancient spiritual ritual or play Total Eclipse of the Heart the whole time. I’m leaning more towards the ritual since I wouldn’t be annoying everyone around me and would have time to engage in the totality. However, any other good ideas? Also, if the ritual is the route to go, any recommendations on what ritual?

I’m probably never going to have this opportunity again, so we gotta make it really good.

    Take a lawn chair, one of those reflective things you put under your chin when sunbathing and the little glasses you wear on a tanning bed.

    Part a large body of water using telekinesis.

    It’ll be epic.

    I’d go for Black Hole Sun instead.

    Just rockin’ out to Soundgarden sounds like fun in itself, but if you plan your timings correctly, you should drop into the first chorus right when the totality starts for your location.

    I think using a video cassette camcorder in 2024 will be ridiculous enough.
