              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Well, tonight was a bust.
Adam "The Comet Man" McKay grazed by our Sunspot tonight!  However, his TUI visit was fleeting and there were no tails to be told.  I fear he may have been in a coma waiting for the weather to clear.  Unlike the clouds, His comments were optically thin.  I began to wonder if he could hear me singing and Hale-Bopp’n to songs, to which I was not Encke, and that sent him off or if his head was just in the Oort Cloud. As he signed off, he said he would make an appearance at DPS! Halley-lujah!
Clouds, rain, wind.  No problems tonight, but I'll need to comet these puns to memory.
