Full Moon – but not one of my usual postings about full moons and things that go bump or hump in the night…
Considering other time zones around the world, and The Twilight Zone, I’m posting this in advance at about 5:40pm Central Time U.S. Thursday 15 September 2016
Full Moon Friday 16 September 2016
Clockwork…
- The sun will set here in Norman Oklahoma at 7:36pm Central Time U.S. Thursday 15 September 2016 – Moonrise 7:06pm.
- Forecast tonight 80% chance of rain early, low 69F.
- Moon will set at 7:57am CT Friday 16 September 2016 – Sunrise 7:17am CT.
- FULL MOON at 2:05pm CT.
- Forecast for Friday is 80% chance of rain, high 84F.
- Friday Sunset 7:35pm CT – Moonrise 7:46pm CT.
- Friday night forecast 60% chance of rain, low 66F.
- Saturday 40% chance of rain, high 85F.
- Saturday night 60% chance of rain, low 65F. During the Oklahoma University vs. Ohio State football game here in Norman Oklahoma starting at 6:30pm CT on FOX TV, the forecast is for football size hail and 100 yards of rain!
[Update 7:00am Saturday 17 September 2016: Clear sky last night – I got to see the full moon. Forecast changed. Slight chance of rain by midnight tonight into tomorrow morning.]
…Meantime, also Saturday, Donald Trump visits Norman for a fundraiser near O.U. campus. The traffic in the area for that and the football game will be a mess. Add to that the rain and possible thunderstorms in the forecast. So we here will not see the FULL MOON above clouds and storms, but we are likely to experience full moon madness! Even so, none of my usual vampire and wolfman music videos with full moon wallpaper images for this full moon posting – a special Full Moon Friday. This full moon and other events on the calendar call for something different and special. Where do some people go on Friday and Saturday nights? Some people will take shelter in the bars and clubs near the football stadium and the Trump event, so the following is what comes to mind…
I’ll start my day – Friday and Saturday – at about 6:00am CT. What might I expect? Perhaps… “Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee’s dead.”

Full lyrics from TV series Cheers – “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”:
Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you’ve got.
Taking a break from all your worries,
Sure would help alot.
Wouldn’t you like to get away?
All those nights when you’ve got no lights,
The check is in the mail;
And your little angel
Hung the cat up by its tail;
And your third fiance didn’t show;
Sometimes you want to go
Where everybody knows your name,
And they’re always glad you came;
You want to be where you can see,
Our troubles are all the same;
You want to be where everybody knows your name.
Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee’s dead;
The morning’s looking bright;
And your shrink ran off to Europe,
And didn’t even write;
And your husband wants to be a girl;
Be glad there’s one place in the world
Where everybody knows your name,
And they’re always glad you came;
You want to go where people know,
People are all the same;
You want to go where everybody knows your name.
Where everybody knows your name,
And they’re always glad you came;
Where everybody knows your name,
And they’re always glad you came…
A shorter version was used for the opening of the TV series each episode. Here is the full version from the above lyrics. Excellent!!!
Cheers! Have a wonderful weekend, wherever you are!
