Glasses are a Godsend. Bifocals were invented by Benjamin 
Franklin, one of the writers of our United States Constitution. His intention with bifocals was go give us clear vision. The framers of the constitution wanted to give us a clear vision of liberty.
Liberty is more important than any other factor in the human condition. More important than the economy or global warming.
I keep wanting to think it is already spring, but not quite yet. It’s 
almost spring, a time for me that is harder than the last of winter. The sun comes out and it even warms up a bit at times. But then it is much like poor Charlie Brown, the football is pulled away at the last second. But soon there will be fresh apple blossoms and wonderfully green leaves. I can hardly wait.
Remember when we used to use books to keep our information?
I’m not saying that electronics are not as good, but there was something so good about having good references. Solid volumes that were leather bound and so clearly illustrated. You just can’t get that with an LCD screen and lithium-ion battery.
Sometimes you just have to nibble on something sweet. I like 
pretty much all of the traditional Easter candies, even Peeps. Peeps are most fun in the microwave though, they grow and shake like a monster.
I love springtime, even though it is not really all that warm or 
welcoming. I need a bit of time to adjust to the idea of summer after that long winter. The temperature today is barely in the 40s but the wonderful signs of life are everywhere now. Birds are singing, trees are budding and life is beginning to emerge from the ground.
