Don't let the sun go down on me.
Brick didn't want to miss the solar eclipse that was happening this year, so he went down close to Carbondale, Illinois, to catch a glimpse of this rare phenomenon. He was so keen on getting the best angle for totality--he couldn't find his special glasses! Oh, Brick!
There he was on someone's deck, various inappropriate glasses strewn around, unable to see the eclipse without damaging his eyes. He quickly accessed a search engine for alternate filters and came upon a video about using floppy disks to view an eclipse. Surely a guy on YouTube with a tutorial from 2017 would have the applicable info!
Unfortunately, Brick was in a hurry and didn't exactly follow instructions.

Brick didn't see a thing, but his efforts worked--he did not damage his eyes.
