During the total eclipse, cloud cover made it impossible for me to continue recording the moon.

I had to resort to using screenshots taken from spacevidcast.com’s live streaming of the event.

Changes comin!

I’ve decided it’s best to begin moving the Roller Derby stuff into it’s own blog on my site, make things a little less obstructive to the folks coming here just for pure derby fun. Stay tuned!

Murray Memorial Skating Rink.

First went the mens teams, then came the girls teams.
From the depths of Conneticut came the CT Death Quads who gave the Baltimore Harm City Homicide team a run for it’s money, with a carnage level that stunned the audience.

Then the Westchester-based Suburbia Roller Derby pitted their Backyard Bullies vs. the Connecticut RollerGirls Yankee Brutals, and the match was a clash of titanic forces -
featuring some serious jammer on jammer action, and all the hurt we could stomach.
