Very exciting, Hermes! But I do not know that "Tiny Mercury" is really one of your favored epithets.

It is exciting!

...and, no. "Tiny" isn't one of my favourites. Svelte is nicer.

Yes. I considered complaining to the writers of Yahoo's headlines about "Tiny Mercury to cross sun", but it seemed a bit much.

Still, they make it sound very, ah, huu, plucky? Determined? The little planet that could?

I can handle that. I've pluck. Pluck in abundance.

Dancing buns. Heh.

I'm hungry.

If you can come to Romania, I am sure our hotel has room service! Or would you prefer something more metaphysical?

Damn, of all the times when I really shouldn't be out in daylight, eh?

At least not without a specially-filtered telescope?
