The Mic is On: We’re Talking about Stars and the Universe!

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Do You See Stars?

Since time began, people have been looking up with questions, finding answers, telling stories. Which ones do you pass on to people you care about? People and stars have a lot in common. Tonight we’re talking about the stars and the universe.

  • Do you wish upon a star?
  • Do you know the constellations?
  • What do you know about Astrology and Astronomy?
  • Would you want to travel to a star nursery?

    • ahem . . .

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Did You Save Room?

So many summer events are about food. We meet with friends, family, and coworkers at weddings, barbeques, and picnics, at conventions and conferences. We share great times over food. Tonight we’re talking about grand and simple desserts:

  • do you save room for dessert?
  • what’s your favorite dessert?
  • what’s the most spectacular, weird, or outrageous dessert you’ve ever seen?
  • what dessert rules do you have, did your family have when you were a kid?
  • does the perfect dessert exist?
