Milky Way Galaxy
CyberCoder just sent me a link to this great new blog editor called ScribeFire. It only works with the Firefox browser, but it’s a snap(in) to install and use. This is my first post with it.
Now that I’m in south Texas, the night skies are amazingly dark. The trick to great stargazing is clear skies though. Thankfully we get a fair amount of clear skies. Last night was a good example. It was so clear I could see the dust cloud of the great Milky Way galaxy. It’s tilted edge on [...]

Earth & Sky
Earth and Sky shows Tonight’s Sky at http://www.earthsky.org/skywatching/
You can see Mars in the night sky, as it passes by the constellation Orion and the Pleiades star cluster, which is also called the Seven Sisters because only seven major magnitude stars can be seen with the naked eye. There’s actually hundreds of stars in the cluster, that can be seen with a telescope and time exposure images.
Also of interest, I’ve updated my blogroll to include this great site, along with a few others that share this blog’s focus on astronomy and space exploration.

This Crazy Blog
After taking another look at this blog, especially over the past year, I’ve decided I can do more. To that end, ThisCrazyCosmos will explore an exciting partnership of astronomy and music, that will greatly enhance the experience of the observer. This is not a new relationship, but a common thread that continually runs through this blog.
We have all felt the power and passion great music brings to our senses. There’s something very special happening, speaking in a universal language understood across the world and probably Across the Universe.
Imagine looking up at the stars across [...]

CyberCoder Adventure – The David Cooley Story
Garry Conn has posted a great story on my brother David, who is a real inspiration to me. CyberCoder got me into blogging, and it’s a real pleasure and priviledge to work with him on our blog projects, as I always learn something new. Our latest venture is MusicRamble.com.

ThisCrazyCosmos now a WordPress Blog
A Big Thanks to my Brother David, who has converted ThisCrazyCosmos over to A WordPress Blog, with a nice fresh look. CyberCoder…you da man!
Since November 2004, This Crazy Cosmos has served as my private blog, with anything and everything I’m interested or involved in getting posted. Not only am I an amateur astronomer, but I’m also a total computer geek, techie, radio enthusiast, pop culture collector, photographer, graphics and web designer.
With over 20 years experience in the music industry, from club & radio DJ to Warner Elektra Atlantic Records sales, marketing and promotion, I also play drums, bass [...]

quiet time
It’s late Sunday night. My brain clears from the daily chatter of the tv and general chaos of the day’s activities and I can finally focus on something to write. It’s funny now that I’m online with an official blog, my mind has mysteriously gone blank. Eyes stare at a stark white screen while fingers twitch at the keyboard. I can hear my heart and feel my pulse racing but my brain is standing still. It’s like a train that’s derailed. Jumped right off the tracks after streaking down the railway, but all the [...]
My First Post
I’m not satisfied with just a global perspective. I want a cosmic view unrestricted by distance or time. Thus, the name This Crazy Cosmos, which will encompass anything and everything under the sun, and beyond. My hyper Gemini brain is just bristling with fragments of short stories, comedy, parody and of course, satire. My desire to write has always bubbled just below the surface, struggling to establish a connection between my heart, soul, and intellect. So here goes. Thanks to my brother David, who has encouraged me to start blogging. All I know [...]
