For three days in a row the air around us has given us hints of spring.

That’s called a winning streak.
Maybe in three or four more weeks we’ll be able to confidently say the condition has stuck.

A couple of boxes were waiting at the door this weekend. My mom sent me a few nice gifts, including these handsome turtle cufflinks. These will go with anything!

There were several other sets of cufflinks, and so now I have a very large collection that will require their own storage solution. Presently I’m using a few sections of one of my bathroom drawers to keep them organized. Yes, I have drawer sections, don’t you? Sometime back I cross sectioned balsa wood to keep all the contents from sliding around. I put in a bit of foam for cufflinks. I cut some slits into the foam so my cufflinks would all be neatly arranged in pairs.
What? This isn’t something you did one Saturday morning, too?
Anyway, I lately made some cufflinks out of buttons. My purchased cufflinks nicely filled one section of that draw. Then I made some more out of buttons I found. That became two sections of my bathroom drawer. This weekend my cufflinks grew by several more pairs. So I’m going to have to come up with another solution. Maybe a custom drawer or storage box.
And, most importantly, my wrists look snazzy.
Here’s some television to watch online. First, the Not Too Late crowd put a new co-host character on their show. He’s a bit nervous, and that worked pretty well. It is even funnier if you know the guy, who isn’t nervous about anything, really. They also had an extemporaneous student government campaign, which was quite amusing. This was a good episode:
The morning show got all civic-minded with a city council member:
And a throwback bit from the old pros:
It is sadly easy to forget how David Letterman could (and can) do so much by doing so little … and waiting on Paul to get out of the way.https://t.co/MQJClTyXV9

You might say hope springs eternal, but only if you weren’t here this weekend.

Sunday:
I’m reconciled to the notion of winter. Some people have to deal with it. Where we are right now, it occurs. It ought to know its place and have a better sense of timing.
Today’s cufflinks and tie combination.

We’re very formal.
Here are some television shows some of our students have put together the last few days. First, a late night show, and then a morning show. You’re covered no matter what time of day you’re reading this.

Put this little number together today in the pre-dawn hours. This came together pretty nicely.

Oh, go read this book. I finished it this weekend and forgot to bring it up in a more timely fashion. Don’t let that dissuade you: it’s an incredible tale.
A chance encounter over wartime Germany and an improbable reunion 42 years later.
“You should go to the party and ask around,” Hiya advised Franz. “It may be your last chance.”
“You should look for him,” Jackson urged Charlie. “He might still be out there.”

You can find it here. The author, Adam Makos, writes in the preface about how he came to the story, how he tracked down the American pilot who said, No, you have to talk to this other man. He’s the star in my story. This would be the German fighter pilot, and that’s the way the story is told. And when you read it, you know what, he was right.
