“The end of all our exploring/Will be to arrive where we started/And know the place for the first time.” (From T.S. Eliot's poem Little Gidding.) Last year, having missed a normal early January deadline, I got a MEANDERINGS New Year's resolution column in to the BANNER in time for the beginning of the Chinese New Year.

Dear Savvy Senior, What are the symptoms of thyroid disease?

2-10-23 As predicted, the days of 90 or 100 – 0 votes on the floor are going to be fewer and fewer as the session goes on. Monday started off with HB252 by Karlan that would have created another $4,000,000 per year suicide prevention program in schools. These bills are of course always emotional, this actually came out of committee 18-3. It was exposed in debate as redundant and expensive and fortunately died 49-51.

Mixed reviews on the half time show by artist Rihanna ranged from disgusting to all right, but most agreed the costumes were a bit too much over the top. On a positive note,...
