I'm no astronomer, but Kornheiser's "Uranus" jokes alway crack me up....predictable though they may be.

It's actually a vulgar imprecation in Braille, something to do with someone's mother.

Gosh, Brian, I am still playing dominoes on a miniature golf course. No time left for stargazing.
However I do have another theory. I am convinced that the holes would align perfectly with the gunshot holes in the walls of the Little Bohemia Lodge from the Dillinger shoot out. The first picture is a period picture of the Lodge in 1933 consistent with the probable timeline of the Weaver card's provenance. ![]() ![]() ![]() The second picture shows the pattern of holes in a small portion of the dining room, where the Weaver card undoubtedly dined. ![]() ![]() ![]() And the third picture shows the bathroom where the owner of the Weaver card was soaking it to remove the gunpowder burns from the card. ![]() ![]() ![]() It's a miracle that the card survived at all. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Oh, close so close, but I bought the card (yep, couldn't resist) so that the next time I go to the optometrist I can tell them no thanks, I brought my own eye test device.

You've pointed us toward that card before, Brian. I always figured you secretly wanted to own it and am glad you won-- now you have your Dream Weaver.
