My 914 (Reinhold) just got a sponge bath. After that I watched "Cry Macho" & I highly recommend it. It's a classic IMHO.

I didn't care for it.

It's also sad to see Clint Eastwood as an Old Man

Grrrr- I feel the degradation every time I have to carry, reach for, remember where I left, replace when crushed in my pocket ( I refuse to carry the hard case ) . . . an object foreign to my body that is required for me to read anything within an arm length.

Mind you, I feel “lucky” (I guess) that I don’t need them to drive (yet).

On that day - utter dejection may set in. . .

Hold on, I need to find those infernal readers(and the headlight), so I can change these 50 year-old rear wheel bearings. Guess the late 40’s were a turning point (downward spiral) for them too.

I buy the cheapest reading glasses I can find, I leave the magnification sticker on the lenses and I leave them everywhere I might need to see something small.

In a pinch you can stack multiple glasses to see the really small stuff (soldering electronics).

Age brings wisdom & wisdom brings more questions than answers. This was implied in a later part of this movie.

I buy the glasses at Home Depot, usually 2 or 3 at a time. These are pretty durable and fit me well. But I have been upping the correction lately. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
