May day, may day. And it is as warm as it should be. The spirits lift automatically with this weather. I watched a terrific 1940s movie last night with Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, directed by George Cukor. "Keeper of the Flame" it's called. Very dramatic, but so pertinent still, it's about a charismatic leader who is actually a fascist. It was great fun to see. Three thumbs up.
I had a bracing discussion with our older son at breakfast. I like it when he stays over for his work and we get to talk a bit. We were of course discussing the A's, but then admired Jerry Brown, our fair governor. Talk about pragmatism. This guy knows how to get things done, and he has a vision as well. Sigh. Wish there were more politicians like him. Maybe you have to be a Jesuit first. It's a thought.
Now I'm off to walk to the post office, just for the air mainly. But there are things to be mailed. There usually are.
