There’s a reason why the phrase “once in a blue moon” means rare … and Friday night’s lunar event proves it.

There will be a blue moon July 31… no, the orbiting space rock isn’t going to trip out and change colors, but it means it will be a second full moon within the same month.

Internet answer:

Why does the moon change shape as it orbits the earth?

Because as it moves round the Earth, and the Earth moves round the Sun, the way it is positioned in the shadow of the sun changes how it looked. So if the moon was on one side of the Earth, and the sun was on the other, the sun would block out the moons light with its shadow.

It means you need to see your eye doctor to get a new prescription.

Ha, the entire audience is white!

So was the radio audience back in 1957 or whatever. I loved Blue Moon...
