We have been through much this month of February, 2016. Mother Nature
teased us with Spring-like weather until old man winter came roaring back
to remind us he has not yet left.
Even so celebrations like Valentines Day, St. Patrick's Day and the Chinese
New Year seemed to lighten some of the lingering gloomy days.
Perhaps Shakespeare described this month best in "Much Ado About Nothing"
when Don Pedro says,
"Good morrow, Benedick.Why, what's the matter
That you have such a February face
So full of storm and cloudiness?"
We have been entertained, few times enlightened, by our Primary races.
as candidates tried to impress us with fact and fiction to win the nomination
for the Presidential race.
Technology has been used by those who believe they can lead us out of
hard times into the future as our brains become cloudy like Benedick's
face from all the rhetoric.
One way or the other, Baseball Season does begin and we call to our neighbors
and anyone else who will listen,
SEE YOU AT THE POLLS!

MADELEINE & GLORIA: PARENTAL STRESS?
Madeleine Albright and Gloria Stieman, two role models who inspired men and women
with or with out careers and children, disappointed many of us with their current comments
about voters in the American primary elections.
Madeleine always represented a strong, jewelry-bedecked, flirty Secretary of State
who represented achievement and worldliness, even when we disagreed with her policies.
Gloria was and remains, hopefully in spite of misinformed current political opinion, an advocate
for disadvantaged people and those who choose different paths to justice and equality.
Both have belittled themself by joining the name-calling contest in the 2016 Presidential nomination campaigns, displaying behavior reminiscent of stress parents sometimes feel when progeny take a direction other than the one expected.
Voters in this Presidential Nominating process of 2016 need to be heard and respected not because of age, color, gender, or religion but because their voices and work are responsible for America's
future.
