Ah, SG...would that it were true.
The folks here who have “dementia” are afraid to BE in public; the ones who have had strokes are afraid to FACE the public.
Unless you have lived with the elderly, and/or dealt with them on a daily basis, the mini/stroke victims pass unnoticed in society.
Ministrokes often leave nothing behind but a curiosity as to “what happened, just now?” or “why is my vision blurred and why am I so confused about it?”
(Ask me how I know...)
The reason I posted that was that I knew an elderly couple who had stroked around the same time. The lady’s speech was affected but she was cognizant, knew what was going on, and cried a lot. The husband’s stroke affected his mentation, but he was able to articulate, although his thought process was goofy. The physician explained the hemispheric phenomena to me. If you know you’re not computing, you don’t want to embarrass yourself in public. If you don’t realize you’re getting goofy, you don’t care about looking goofy in public. I’ve only seen it once, but it left a big impression. That probably doesn’t apply in this instance, but I thought it might be worth mentioning.
What are you doing up so late? I’m about ready to turn in.
Time to sack out. Goodnight and sweet dreams, y’all!

Oops. Darned poltergeist.
You left your cake out in the rain again, didn’t you?
A few drinks of the Green Fairy more likely.
Our plan is to trivialize this idiocy by immortalizing it.
Buy a coat-rack.
Put the antenna on the coat-rack.
How many channels you can get depends on your area. In my area I'm getting ten channels.
In the little town up in Pennsylvania that I go to, we can with effort get six channels.
Dang!
I am (sadly) off to the land of Dreams/wish you could be with me....
“February Home”...reads like the mid-afternoon of the age of aquarius and perpetual trivial idiocy is already in the whitehouse...please be careful what you want to immortalize,lol.
It's rather like a cat playing with a cricket. Sooner or later, its batteries run out, and the cat loses interest.
I glanced at the jjfate thread linked earlier here...that is astonishing in size and funny and this thread is chock full of giggles too - good medicine for me tonight.
Sionn was thoughtful in many ways. One way was leaving images in photobucket so whomever could use them.
Today I ran into the old CEO of Alerton (an LDS saint, incidentally) and I had opportunity to share what a privilege it was for Bill to be working for such a well run company. Things did deteriorate under Novar (the first company to take over) and then Honeywell came in - more adjustment to the new regime but it finally “gelled”).
Imagine working for a company that has no debts, owns the building it occupies and pays its employees an annual profit sharing bonus - for some it essentially doubled their annual salaries. A different set of ethics was behind all that, for sure. Wouldn’t it be nice if the USA were run like that????? Debt free, and prosperous enough for everyone to have an equal share of the profits???? I would really appreciate that.

Wish I could dream - mostly it’s convulsions and nightmares, gasping for breath like someone’s choking me to death. I wake up exhausted every day.
