weak magnets

"Magnetic storms occur when a mass of plasma containing trapped magnetic fields is ejected from the Sun and strikes the Earth and its atmosphere. This mass, sometimes called a plasma bubble, travels away from the Sun at about 2 million miles per hour. The bubble does not follow a straight course but rides the rotating three-dimensional spiral pattern of the Sun's magnetic field. If a bubble leaves the right place on the Sun to reach Earth, it travels the 93-million-mile distance in about 40 hours. Viewed from the Sun, our Earth is a very small target. Therefore, the vast majority of plasma bubbles miss Earth, and many that do reach the Earth are too weak to produce a significant storm."
Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. John 12:24

Word of advice: never buy an extreme storms calender, no matter how awesome the month of may's tornado looks. Your year will most likely suck and blow and be filled with figurative ice.
I bought a treehouses of the world calender for 2009. Maybe next year will be joyful and adventurous and smell like figurative cedar?

The more I learn, the more I realize that I don't know anything about anyone or anything. But I think it's okay. I don't think I'm alone.
"I don't know much. Do you know much?"
"About what?"
"I don't know? Anything."
"No."
"Me either."
"It's okay, we don't need to."

But tomorrow belongs to me. And Walt Disney. And Little Richard.
Twenty-three. Esrim v'shalosh in Hebrew.
So far, finding these has been the best pre-birthday present I never asked for:
