    I will give it a try, but am glad Karla was driving tonight. Every car coming straight on had three sets of headlights.

        You're a conservative for cripes sake! How did you ever think progressive lenses would work for your eyes?

        🤣

          Thinking of trying some reactionary lenses. Maybe some Jacobite readers.

            Maybe get them rose-tinted so that when you look back at the past it will seem a lot nicer.

            I was only joking

              I get mine with a transitional darkening to gray. 👓 🕶

                hadn't had a pair of the transitionals since the late 70's. The problem with them was they eventually darkened to where they never were quite clear again. I just bought a pair again a couple years ago and am quite happy with them.

                  I hate that they do not transition in the car. A separate pair of prescription sunglasses are required.

                    Don't you mean Jacobin lenses?

                    Jacobite implies support for the Stuart claim to the throne.

                      Yes I chose the word carefully as an example of reactionary.

                        I see.

                        No pun intended.
