My neighbors went on a ten day guided tour of Rome, Venice. and Florence. Here is my annual advisory for those who have grown accustomed to central A/C in their living space 24 hours a day and are planing to go to Europe on vacation during the summer. Make sure that A/C is listed among the amenities of your hotel room, Air BnB or wherever you are staying. Evidently, some of the people they are traveling with did not get the memo and now are a bit cranky during their travels.

"The blind soldier fought for me in this war. The least I can do now is fight for him. I have eyes. He hasn’t. I have a voice on the radio, he hasn’t. I was born a white man. And until a colored man is a full citizen, like me, I haven’t the leisure to enjoy the freedom that colored man risked his life to maintain for me. I don’t own what I have until he owns an equal share of it. Until somebody beats me and blinds me, I am in his debt."- Orson Welles August 11, 1946
