Oh for the Woe of Summer

Heat, ma'am! it was so dreadful here, that I found there was nothing left for it but to take off my flesh and sit in my bones.    -- Sydney Smith

I'm not getting any younger. Seemed like a couple of years back Professor X and Magneto were old guys. Now they seem so young! Of course, the new movie (out today) is one of those "origin" movies - and I knew that going into it. But it was still weird watching young actors play the main roles - enough so that it makes you feel old even if you're not. Weird...
