Astronomy Picture of the Day!

It has been postulated that when the moon hits your eye like a big-ah pizza pie, it is considered 'amore'. The postulator of this claim was most likely referring to Jupiter's moon, Io, since it is the only moon we have discovered thus far to have characteristics similar to that of a big-ah pizza pie.  This claim can be easily refuted for several reasons.  The primary reason I believe it to be false is due to the unreliability of the claimant.  It is a well documented fact that he was a drunkard.  Secondly, Io is by all accounts one of the most hideous manisfestations of matter in the universe and thus is unlikely to fit the any definition of the word 'amore'.

First of all, no post on Monday.  And secondly, the one you did post isn't my subject, or any of them even though I along with Joe got the answer right last week.  I understand what you mean about not doing things for free, but damn.  People should pay me to be their friend, if for no other reason (and there are many) than my tolerance alone.  Phoenix out.
