The shortest day of the year is today, also the longest night. Take advantage of the long evening and try to catch the tail end of the Geminid meteor shower. It's active for much of December. As we get closer to the full "Cold Moon" on December 26th, your chances dwindle.

After such a tragic year why hasn't Twitter given us something other than 'Like' to acknowledge the pain that some people share on here? Sometimes I feel it's not my place to comment but I don't want people to think they're suffering alone.
