I guess we all do dumb things at times. While some laugh at themselves others worry about the possibility of a declining brain. Here's something that happened to me yesterday. My Nikon 7200's settings were set for birds in flight and I wanted to reset it for still subjects. When I pressed the menu button the menu didn't come up. I pressed it a couple more times and still nothing. I turned the camera off and back on, hit the menu button and still nothing. Then I realized I was looking at the small monitor at the top of the camera instead of the rear monitor. Should I 🤣 or 😭?

When I told my doctor that I sometimes forget to zip up after peeing, he told me to save my worrying until I forget to zip down BEFORE peeing. 😕😕😕

We all have to learn to take things in stride and laugh a little.

Like it said in Reader's Digest, Laughter - The Best Medicine!

There were 3 older gentlemen sharing a townhouse. One was sitting in the living room reading a newspaper when one of his housemates called for help shouting, "I am on the stairs and I forgot whether I was going up or down"??!! The first gentleman was annoyed at the interruption of his reading and retorted, "you big dummy- I told you all that smoking and drinking was gonna fry your brain- now you see- you are beginning to suffer dementia"!! A few minutes later the other housemate suddenly yelled from the bathroom- I'm in here and I don't remember why I came in -to defecate, urinate or take a bath"??!! HELP!!!. The first gent, still annoyed, exclaimed "I told both of you that all that junk food, booze, drugs, all-nighters and smokes were gonna burn out your brains"! He pontificates, "now look at me- I'm a vegetarian, I abstain from alcohol and smoking, I get exactly 8-hours of sleep every night, I go to the gym every day, I take care of myself and I am in perfect health and have a mind like a steel trap" while pounding loudly with his fist on the coffee table! "KNOCK ON WOOD"! (audio: KNOCK KNOCK) "WHO'S THERE"??!!

Don't worry, it happens to everyone- even young folks!
