Is anyone excited about the solar eclipse that will happen on Aug 21?

DO NOT LOOK INTO THE SUN AT ANY TIME DURING THE EVENT WITHOUT A PAIR OF APPROVED GLASSES OR OPTICS!

Do not try to make a lens/glass to view the eclipse.

You can make a "pinhole camera" https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/make-pinhole-projector.html

to view the eclipse - You can also use a cardboard box to make a viewer.

Yes, very excited! We got our glasses already. I will be at work, but my co-workers and I decided that we won't miss it, and we all have to take a break. In North Carolina, it will take place around 2:44pm.
