I apparently have reached another milestone in life after turning 75. When I turned 65 I started receiving hearing aid brochures on a regular basis, and still do. Today, I received an advertisement from a crematoria. Jeeez, I wonder if I'll start getting these on a regular basis now.

Yes!!! You will be bombarded with advertisements for medi-care, pre-planned funerals and funeral insurance, burial plots just to name a few. I am 75 and I get them all the time. The worst ones that I get are the ones from Colonial Penn insurance addressed to my wife Carolyn. They sent her happy birthday cards this year with a big picture of Alex Trebecks picture wishing her happy birthday and to remind her that she probably needed insurance from Colonial Penn for future funeral expenses. She passed away May 2, 2015!!! I would like to punch Alex Trebeck in his damned nose!

As long as you are reading the envelopes they come in, everything is OK! Age is a number - attitude is more important! I'm about to be 82. That's fine with me!

I get snail mails from local funeral homes. I write "RETURN TO SENDER. I'M NOT DEAD YET." on the envelope and put it back in the mailbox.

Get a call blocker.

Call Blocker CPR 10000 is excellent.
