Well, there is some downside......for instance I can now see the nose hairs on the quarterbacks on the new TV.

I was walking down the hall and saw one of my students coming toward me. She waved, so I said "HI, sweetheart!" As we got closer I realized she was a male. I went and got glasses the next day.

Everything looks so 3 dimensional and crisp now......it's like looking in one of those old stereoscope machines.

When we both needed specs we went for contact lenses, funny enough we buy them from the States as they are a lot cheaper even with postage, anyway back on subject, the first day they were fitted my wife went shopping and was out for hours, when she came back I asked where the **** have you been, her answer was reading all the labels on the jars and tins. Amazing how nice it is to have eyes that work.

I think next time I'll go with bifocals......kind of a pain changing back & forth all the time.

My one remaining XF is a bright silver 08.......one of these days I'd like to park next to a SSB & compare the colors.

I don't have to worry about being investigated far calling girls 'sweetheart' and males 'dude'. I'm too old to remember their names!

Who are all you people, anyway?

The first thing I noticed driving home with my first pair of specs was that trees actually had a bunch of individual things called leaves and not one big green blob.
