Dumb pinhole camera question. Does the aluminum foil do anything? It's just there because it's an easy material to poke a hole though, right?

Take your colander outside and look at the shadows the holes create. You will see the eclipse that way without looking at the sun. It works for anything small (pin) hole.

I mean, do you guys think you need them just walking/driving around or are you planning on staring at it? You don’t need it for day-to-day activities only if you’re trying to observe the sun directly.

Haven’t found any yet in Springfield. I called the Fresh Markets in Vienna and Alexandria - both were sold out.
You can make a projector box to visualize the eclipse. It's not the same as looking at it with glasses, but it's still pretty cool and better than nothing. Also, NASA will live stream the eclipse.

Maybe you can pick up her pair from school, assuming they are supplying them.

Remember when Trump looked up without glasses and burnt his cornea? I wish it had been worse.
Ha ha! Same. Maybe the piece of shit will blind himself today.
You want to blind yourself today?
