Joys of Old Age part 2



Old age means......

 you can' t remember the title to the movie you watched last night and when your friend says what was it about? UMMMM....

someone ask you for your zip code and you are silent for the 20 seconds it takes to bring your 30 year zip code up  and out of your mouth.

finding your coffee cup in strange places

you can't retrieve info that is" on the tip of your tongue"

you call your grandson by you son's name


you lose your keys, coffee cup, water when you never left the room

and most famous of ALL walk into a room and have no clue why you are there.

 and my personal one is I always buy Irons and Curling Irons that Automatically Turn OFF... because
 I don't  want the house to burn down with the dogs in it because I did not turn it off.

All of the above is NORMAL and considered Age Related Cognitive Decline


THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL POST....(I do not want to know your preferences or choice or if you are a donkey or an elephant)

Here are My thoughts about the current candidates in US Presidential Race..... 
About half of the major contenders in US Presidental Race are over the age of 60
( 5 are over 65 and 2 over 60 and 4 will be 70 by voting time, see above chart)


Overheard in the halls of the White House in 2016, the President has an important meeting

OMG! where did I leave the Nuclear Code Briefcase?

 I have an appointment with someone for something at 9 AM, which hall is it in? Good, this is the hall but which door should I open"


The president steps into the room and Stops. Why am I here, what did I come in here for?
Oh, I remember, War Council...

While speaking on the big screen with the Supreme Allied War Council, the words come out,
Sorry, give me a minute, "it's on the tip of my tongue"... you know, this meeting is about that thing that happened with one of those Korea's, you know they might have one of those things that can blow up. Now what is that called?

At the press conference next day, the President introduced the Prime Minster  David Cameron as Vladimir Putin

Thus the Need for the conference with the Supreme Allied War Council...
Now! where did I put that Nuclear Brief Case?
