  1. The 90's were great but I think it's hyped up a bit much these days. The cartoons and video games were definitely awesome but I don't miss dial up one bit. 90's music... eh, not really my favorite. I like 80's music more.
  2. I heard back from the repair place. Hopefully I'll get my camera back in 2 weeks. Can't do any long exposure astrophotography without it and I'm dying to do some!

      I hope you and your camera are doing fine!

      @Tacodidra, It was the shutter. It's dead. The mirror box assembly is going to be replaced, so it should be good as new when I get it back. (after a thinner wallet, of course)

      Hopefully you'll get it back as soon as possible. I can't wait to see more photos. 

  3. Happy Birthday!

      Aaah! Thank you! ^_^

  4. Oh no! I'm gonna need a huge telescope to see my friends now! *quickly hides before Nightmare Moon sees me!
  5. Lol! Nearly everyone's profile says "Users Banished". Looks like I was spared by Nightmare Moon!

      Apple Bloom is a nice filly, why would anypony banish her? :kindness:

      Yeah, I also avoided that – as fun as it might have been. ;)

      Edit: Spoke too early, I guess. :laugh:

      Looks like I’m missing out! I had to avoid trick or treating because I felt sick today

      @Tylad, it was a blast on here last nite with Nightmare Moon and (nearly) everyone getting banished. 

      Hope you're feeling better!

  6. Check out/reply to status updates, a bit of lurking, replying to topics that catch my interest and post my amateur astronomy images.
  7. I think Apple Bloom has moved to a top spot on my favorites list. :ooh:

      @Lil'Cinnamon, for a while, Sweetie Belle was my favorite from the CMC's. I don't know what it is exactly, but I just find Apple Bloom to be fun and adorable to watch.

      @Lord Valtasar, hard to pick just one. :catface:

      She definitely is adorable! ^_^ Even more so when she's sad... :rarity:

      @Tacodidra, Oh no! Not the sad face! It works every time. lol

      Apple Bloom is adorable even when she's going crazy.

       

  8. I can't say that it has since I've only been a fan for over a year. MLP has brought me more joy when I come home from a stressful day at work or some other event. The show helps me unwind and laugh more. One more season and I can probably toss those blood pressure meds.
  9. Right now, I have more tracks from Wooden Toaster. I recently ran across "Not Much to MIss" from 4everfreebrony and I'm starting to like their content.
  10. I think Rainbow Dash is the most recognizable outside of the fandom. I don't see MLP merchandise very often in public, but the few times I have, I recall seeing mostly Rainbow Dash. My first MLP:FiM merchandise was a Rainbow Dash coffee mug.
  11. It seems like I've heard "Yeet" before. I have no idea what it means, tho.
  12. I'd live at Sweet Apple Acres with Applejack. I like rural areas, farms, and dark skies.
  13. Looks like Nightmare Moon banished the mods and admins. Hmmm...

  14. My little cousins are going trick or treating tonight. Time to plot a candy bucket raid. Muhahahaaa! :sneer:

      @Tacolantern, thanks! The evil plotting begins as soon as I get off work. :P

      @Twilight Luna, yep! 100% tax on Dots. :laugh:

      @Trix or Treat?, ha ha. It does! ^_^

      @Phosphor270 Peanutbutter cups are taxed the highest. Right? :mlp_smug:

      @Twilight Luna, *nom nom nom!*

      What peanut butter cups? Lol

      I sneak those and snickers out when collecting my Dots tax. :please:

  15. Good night everypony!

      Well, that's certainly going to be on my mind tonight. Lolz. Have a good night!

      Good Night!

  16. I've only posted a couple times to welcome new ponies. I don't know why, but I'm terrible at introductions.
  17. Did Rarity get enough candy? :darling:

      Not just any candy is fabulous enough for her! :grin:

      I must say that Richart chocolate looks really good... :pinkie:

  18. It's not from my 16in telescope, but the C8 is definitely capable. I recorded some video in near IR last night, but the C8 is just too small to resolve any cloud features on Uranus.

      Thank you so much! Even without the cloud features, that's more than I've seen of it thus far. How long of an exposure was that?

      Shutter speed: 18ms. Luckily, when I record video, the software saves a text file with all the settings. I recorded 10 minutes of video and stacked the best 15% of frames. I use Autostakkert!3 for stacking and Registax for sharpening.

  19. I spend about 5 hours a day online, mostly at night. I watch way too many youtube videos.
  20. Finally watched this and I have to say that I really enjoyed it. I laughed my butt off when Twilight was stressing out over everything. From long lists, to diagrams...Oh, Twilight, only you can make pudding so complicated. Also, yayy! on Derpy getting another speaking role. I think they got the post office scene right too. It really is like that.
  21. Thanks for the badge, bro! :-D

  22. Apple Bloom looks pretty cool in this!

      Definitely! :yay: An Earth pony as a pilot is an interesting idea... :dash:

      Go Applebloom, fly us to victory!

  23. Found Uranus with no problem last night. I used my C8 instead of the Skywatcher 16, due to time constraints. I plan to try again Thursday night (need sleep, lol). I am looking for banding near the equatorial region, which is only visible in Near IR light and in large telescopes. Enjoy everypony!
  24. I waited til Uranus was 60 degrees in altitude before imaging. It was worth it. The atmosphere is so much calmer near the zenith. 

    I'm getting sleepy, so I'll see y'all tomorrow. Good night everypony!

      Good night, my friend! :D I'm glad you had a good time imaging! :yay:

  25. When I was younger, I had a hard time taking medicine. I would spit it up. Now, not really.
