I find when I go to another room to get something, in my travels I find myself deep in thought about an unrelated subject. So by the time I get to my destination, I have to rethink just what I was doing.

The Explanation

Brains of older people are slow because they know so much. People do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to recall facts because they have more information in their brains, scientists believe. Much like a computer struggles as the hard drive gets full, so, too, do humans take longer to access information when their brains are full.

Researchers say this slowing down process is not the same as cognitive decline. The human brain works slower in old age, said Dr. Michael Ramscar, but only because we have stored more information over time. The brains of older people do not get weak. On the contrary, they simply know more.

Also, older people often go to another room to get something and when they get there, they stand there wondering what they came for. It is NOT a memory problem, it is nature's way of making older people do more exercise.

SO THERE!!

relax- in about 5 years Microsoft or Apple will have a plug in available for us. It's already past the design stage they are just trying to figure out what port to use. Trust me ! :roll: :roll:

I hope they offer a retrofit kit. I am using all of my existing ports.

I think they are developing defragmentation medication that should get the speed back up to close to normal ;)


We have it already. It's called "Malt Whisky" and for the women, "Red Wine"

I tend to subscribe to The Buffalo Theory myself. Attributed to Cliff and Norm of Cheers.

“Well, you see, Norm, it’s like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it’s the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.

And that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers.”

That's funny.
On the subject of medical advances, what about a cure for GAS? Any update on that?

At Kmart, Walmart, and JC Penny's. But it only comes in 55 gallon drums, and you have to buy a six pack.
