Birthdays and Wisdom

Today, the shy fellow born Paul Hewson turns 50 years old, and he might greet that number with a couplet from one of his band's songs:

"I can't believe the news today
Oh I can't close my eyes
and make it go 'way."

Today also marks a birthday for my secretary, and idiot though I be, I am in no way fool enough to acquaint you with the number involved there.

We can also mark the passing of one classy lady, the singer Lena Horne. Oklahoma seems to have decided to honor her memory by having some "Stormy Weather" of our own today.
