“A little of what you call frippery is very necessary towards looking like the rest of the world.”   —   Abigail Adams

(I guess that’s why they invented jewelry . . . and makeup . . . and hairdos, etc.  We are a very vain species!  As Fernando always said:  “It is better to look good than to feel good.”  But above all, it is better to do good.  So be well, my friends.)   —   YUR

(Surprisingly, our first Abigail Adams quote since I’ve been posting these spoilers.  Abby must be referring to formal education, because I generally learn something new everyday, without even trying.  The young Abigail was one of America’s first hotties.  No disrespect intended.  I actually know one of her descendents, and she is very attractive too.  Goes by the nickname of Wiz!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
