Blue Moon...

 

If you said, "By The Marcels, 1961," you get 20 bonus points.  If you said, "Originally written by Richard Rodgers (of Rodgers and Hammerstein) and Lorenz Hart in 1934, “Blue Moon” was first recorded by singers Al Bowlly and Connee Boswell in 1935 and later became a hit in 1949 when released by Mel Tormé and Billy Eckstine," you get 10 bonus points for knowing how to use Google.

The Super Full Blue Moon tonight.   Super, because it is the largest, brightest full moon this year.  Full, because... duh.   And "Blue" because it is the second full moon this month.   It will be November 5, 2025, before we have a bigger, brighter Super Moon.   And it will be 14 years before we have another Blue Moon Super Moon... so get out there and howl at this one... or, at least, take in the splendor if it is a clear night where you are! 


 Sing the song if you remember the words.  ;-)
