Barney & Clyde by Gene Weingarten; Dan Weingarten & David Clark for July 19, 2024

We were thinking about something for memory problems but AARP said they know of no over-the-counter supplements that work. Now, what was my point?

Quote from Google:

“Over the past few decades, Earth’s rotation around its axis, which determines how long a day is, has been speeding up. This trend has been making our days shorter.” ㋛

I followed up on that one with jellyfish that advertises “clinically proven to improve memory”. There were five aspects of memory tested, four showed no effect. I don’t recall the aspects tested, but the one that showed effect was a more minor one. Further, though the effect was statistically significant it was not significant from a practical standpoint. In other words, it was too small to really notice.

Barn’ uses the standard evasion answer technique. I often (old folks repeat themselves a lot) tell my Complimentary Digital Support group that I try to be truthful, but be careful how I state things. Also, don’t trust any source, not even me, without vetting the best you can.

Reminds me when 9 out of 10 doctors approved Camel cigarettes.

But the jellyfish notice?

To an old guy, days are especially short.
