The problem here is we bounce up and down so much. Hit 70 last week and now it's 14. Lots of people with pneumonia around here because of the weather. It also tears the roads to pieces. Freeze thaw thing. Plus the city is losing $2.4 million a year that 4 people got rich off of from building a hockey rink so they can't afford to fix the streets. And the robins that showed up are freezing their asses off.

About time for my yearly eye exam. Got me to thinking about glasses. Back when I was about 25 I had a pair made with the yellow tint that brightens things up. I thought they'd be nice for riding my cycle at night and they were except for headlights.

This is for hunters. 4 of us went squirrel hunting and I wore the yellow glasses. We spread out through the timber and took our stands. I see a squirrel and another and another ... and no one was shooting. I popped up and nailed 5 squirrels that no one else had seen. The contrast with those glasses made the difference.
