Invaders from Space! Leonid Showers tonight.
Space.Com, Astronomy Magazine and The American Meteor Society all have tons of information, viewing guides and historical perspectives for you to peruse in anticipation of tonight Lonid meteor shower. Many are predicting a once in a lifetime event, as the Earth is expected to swing through 3 debris trails laid down by Comet 55p/Temple-Tuttle. One article mentions that up to 10,000 events per hour could be in the offing. So if you feel like staying up till 2am pst (10 ut) you'll be able to check it out. I know we've been hyping this event, but, well, we are okay with this.
Leonid Showers Tonight. That is a sentence. Leonid (subject) showers (verb) tonight (preposition).
Technically, it 'showers' should be a noun and Leonid and adjective, but then it would be a sentence fragment. Grammatically it is correct, so I'm happy.

Wait for the proper time AND DAY, you stupid upside-down opossum.
in how to spend this night??. I think that it would be cool if the slashdotters suggest ways to get the best of this event. What about an overnight barbecue??? or a XXI century hippie party?.Or a Lan party at the outsides?? or a wet t-shirts contest with some chicks of the neighbordhood?. What kind of snacks are best suited for viewing shooting stars?,and what about beer?? national or imported?? or some scotch??.are the sex abilities empowered in these kind of nights?? Here in Venezuela, I am planning,like i did a coupled of years ago, to get on the top of my building with some buddies, drinking a lot of Patriarca( A tequila-like-local-booze) and watch some girls naked dressing off in the next buildings, Thank God, They dont read Slashdot :-). Come on pals!! , Help me, I am looking forward for your advices to get the best of the best of this night.
