Style Blog, followed by Braille Blog

Petey doesn't need glasses.  She just wears them to look cute.

I wear glasses to offset my rugged handsomeness with a dusting of intellectual.

Jennie wears glasses because without them she'd need a world design by Louis Braille.

Speaking of Monsieur Braille, did you know that this blind Frenchman didn't invent the communication method that was named after him?  He actually improved upon a system developed by Charles Barbier in response to Napoleon's demand for a code that soldiers could use to communicate silently and without light at night called "night writing".
