Usually I get it with lack of sleep. There are many reasons to have “brain cloud” and they’re all better than “old-timers disease”. Keep your chin up, you could just be too smart to remember everything you know all at once!!
Thank you. My memory is so good, I never forget anything that I remember. Sometimes it just takes a little longer to recall it. LOL.
Ditto! LOL!
I really do like the poem.
Good evening to you, glad you liked the poem. Just a little ditty.
The family unit plays a critical role in our society and
in the training of the generation to come.
—Sandra Day O’Connor
Very interesting. Is this a period/era specific quotation?
I don’t know, just a Quote for the Day thing.
Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Somehow we seem to have lost the bubble. Sad.
Teddy Roosevelt said a lot of great things and was a great and good leader.
Another quote I like a lot.
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.” THEODORE ROOSEVELT (Paris Sorbonne,1910)
Amazing quotations from an amazing man.

Yes it is. I have no idea how it’s done -maybe an average of general stuff??
Me either but a lot of the comments are dead on regarding me.
Well, I think that’s one of the ways these are designed, there are questions and the option answers have a general common denominator.
Good night Soaring Feather. Rest well.
