We got ninja'd?

My understanding of the by-laws is that one can only ninja oneself.     Other posters cannot ninja us.    We can be deleted by the mods but I don't know if they have the ability to ninja a post.

So did I ever tell you about the time one of my posts was ninja'd by a mod?  He put in some crud about how I like Tom Brady.  Really I do, but I'd never admit it.
we have amazing powers

Thanks.      :)

The mods can ninja/edit a post.

Can't post it in the Loft (not one of the options).     Gotta be a regular GDT.    I "posted" one in this thread in my Kansas video post.      Maybe one of our moderators can make it happen.    :)

next eclipse will go through New England.  Looks like totality north of Mt Washington.  Maybe I hit that one.

Only Chief can do that but not sure without opening the whole category up.

I think I’m going to hit Austin for that one. Early April (April 8, 2024) weather in Cleveland and New England is a dicey proposition. I imagine clouds are very likely.

I can barely figure out what I'm doing tomorrow and you guys are planning 2024.

My son went to Charleston. He said partly cloudy but still impressive.
