Motus Mentis

I note that once again, thanks to the visual acuity of a unusually long-lived rodent from the Keystone State, we may now expect a prolonged interval of wintry weather. While this bothers me not at all — I am far better constituted for cold weather than hot, and I dread, each year, the arrival of Gotham’s summer swelter — I know there are many for whom this is depressing news. There is a simple and obvious solution, of course, but for some reason this annual inconvenience persists.
