| Introduction | I'm 62 years old and I was born on September 30, 1951. Yeah, OK! I'm a fat guy, 5 feet 6 inches, and I weighed almost 400 pounds when this photo of me, sitting in my JAZZY power chair, was taken back in June 5,2012 where I had my Galileo telescope set up on a patio at a Starbucks to observe the transit of Venus across the face of the sun. Notice the circular sun-shade casting a shadow onto a white screen that I'm holding up in my hand. I used a 2X Barlow lens to project the sun's image onto the white screen to observe the sun spots and the transit of Planet Venus across the face of the sun. This is the safest method to observe the sun with a telescope. I'm a Big Fat Heretic, and I'm large and in charge! I actually like being fat! I'm fat and bald and I smoke cigars. I've been smoking pipes and cigars since I was only 19 years old. But I think cigarettes suck! As I have said before, I am large and in charge! |
