I have my eye on you - My All Seeing Eye
I was given a one dollar bill the other day with a “Where’s George?” stamp on it. I went to the website and entered the bill.

This site tracks where bills are used and where they go around the country/world. I’m not sure how many people are actually still using the site but it’s still active and I just put the bill into a vending machine. I’m curious to see where it ends up next.
Saw the Lunar Eclipse last night. My first. Then we turned the telescope to Xibalba - a very important star in the Mayan culture - which is at the end of the Little Dipper. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xibalba
This star was a central component of the movie The Fountain. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fountain_(film)
If you haven’t seen this movie you may want to take some serious uninterrupted time and watch it. Then come back in a few days and watch it again. And after that time (and discussing it with friends/family) you may want to do some research about the mythology surrounding the star and the Mayan culture then REALLY sit down and watch it. There are so many layers to this movie it’s impossible to get it all in one sitting. It’s not just a sappy love story for Wolverine.
Thanks for reminding me about “The Fountain”. For some reason it dropped off my radar. I’m a big Aronofsky fan . . . “Pi” and “Requiem for a Dream” were both great films IMHO. Off to my Netflix queue!!!
