April
is an interesting month, filled with unexpected contrasts and optimism. Nothing
happens quite when you expect it to in April. Farkas Bolyai, a mid-19th century Hungarian
mathematician, wrote, "When the time is ripe for certain things, these
things appear in different places in the manner of violets coming to light in
the early spring." April has so many seasonal contrasts: Freezing, wet
snow and warm spring showers which both bring about vibrant colors from the dead
land, carpets of white snow with crocus peeking out and carpets of crocus being
blanketed with more snow, glorious June sunlight piercing rolling black
February skies. All are well worked themes in April literature. Aristotle
wrote, "One swallow does not make a spring, nor does one fine
day." Robert Frost wrote, "The sun was warm but the wind was
chill. You know how it is with an April day." And Shakespeare wrote in
Romeo and Juliet, “When well-apparel'd April on the heel of limping
winter treads…” You just never know what to expect and when to expect it
when it comes to April. And that’s where the optimism comes in. You know that
May, in all its’ glory, is the month after April. To misquote Susan J.
Bissonette, "An optimist is the human personification of April."
Enjoy all of April’s bluster as it somersaults into May.

Noel

Anniversary, Dan and thank you.)

“ICE”
Your Cell Phone
Paramedics
and EMT’s will turn to a victim’s cell phone for clues to that person’s
identity. You can make their job much easier with a single idea they are trying
to get everyone to adopt: “ICE”.
“ICE”
stands for “In Case of Emergency”. If you add an entry in the contacts list on
your cell phone under the name ICE, with the name and phone number of the
person
that the emergency services should call on your behalf, you can quickly save
them a lot of time and have your loved ones contacted immediately. It only
takes a few moments to do.
Paramedics
know what ICE means and look for it immediately!!!
“ICE”
