    But are the Brain Alert guys really that fast to appear?! And do they always know the answer/missing information? I see many potential flaws in Rat’s invention, although I do like the idea….

    Do they have a version that helps you remember the names of people you just met 10 seconds ago? I’ll buy one of those!

    Happy birthday, Sir or Madam. I’m here to tell you that you can survive being 62. I’m halfway through it. Took early retirement, so far so good. These days, however, I find I’m thinking a lot about the hereafter……. I walk into a room and try to remember what I came here after….

    I had a an old chihuahua. In his later years he often was found standing midway on the stairs wondering it he should go up or go down. Sometimes I would join him.

    Don’t buy the cheap model like I did! Sometimes it doesn’t provide the desired information until hours later when I’m in bed trying get to sleep.

    Two elderly couples were sitting down to dinner at a restaurant. The two husbands were talking about a memory clinic that one of them, Joe, had visited earlier that week.“Yeah, it’s got all of the latest and greatest memory stuff,” Joe was saying. “Visualization, association…all of that.”

    “Hmm,” his buddy said. “I might want to take a class or two. What was it called?”Try as he might, Joe couldn’t remember the name of the clinic. Then he smiled.click click (“Hey, what’s the name of that flower, with the long stem and the thorns?”)(“You mean a rose?”)(“Yeah, that.”) Joe turned to his wife. “Hey, Rose—what was the name of that memory clinic?”
