Close your invisible robot eyes

This is good news, but not yet enough. Spying on people going about their ordinary lives is wrong, whether it's the government, your car, or your TV doing it.

April showers

Even as a little kid I thought "March winds and April showers bring May flowers" was bogus. First, we went almost every Easter from New Jersey to North Carolina, where New Jersey's May flowers were done by April. Second, it seemed too general to be a rule, as well as too geographically specific. But I'm reminded of the saying today, as a soft steady rain falls outside here in Southern Indiana, which is more like North Carolina than New Jersey. (We're at the same latitude as Washington DC.) Crocuses are long done, and so are the daffodils. Tulips and irises are up. And our dry garden (of hardy native plants) and lawn are drinking it in.
