I love this song:

Summertime and the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is fine
Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin'
So, hush, little baby, don't you cry

One of these mornings,
You're gonna rise up singin
'Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take the sky
But till the morning,
There's a-nothin' can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin' by

It's the second anniversary of 'the little bang' blog. Time just flies. It seems mere weeks ago that it was the first anniversary and it seems like only a few years since I was at the University of Illinois. That's probably a good thing. If the years feel like decades, then they were probably tough years. I read a book recently that was set during the Depression leading up to World War II. I don't think that those years would have seemed to pass quickly. Not when every single day was a struggle to most people. No TV, no air conditioning, no jobs, little food, poor health care, and very little hope; that had to be a brutal time. We're lucky to be living in the world today, even with all the current problems.
