I was mostly offline this weekend, attending a family shindig way out in the boonies. It was nice to have a break from the onslaught of insane news. A relative asked me if I’d like to have my great-grandmother’s old spectacles: She’s been dead for ages. Who knows why we’ve hung onto her glasses all …
