Lindseyw Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 What's all this Mars malarky about ? Apparently in the month of August you are supposed to be able to see it. I looked last night and the night before and saw a rather large star at the side of the moon - was that it ? Anyone know anything about it ?

BAZZO Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Mars is also visible during the day in the chubby hands of people who walk around with their shirts out, wearing sunglasses on the top of the head and are constantly hugging people while muttering "Top man..my princess..posh'n'bex..we're an item.. definitely..wicked.....
