On a whim I decided to look up on the internet the percentage of people still alive who were born the same year I was which was 1943. This is what I got: Men: Approximately 45% to 50% of males born in 1943 are alive at age 83. Women: Approximately 55% to 60% of females born in 1943 are alive...

That's amazing, you have the fortitude and determination because your a responsible person so you push yourself. I understand but I also understand that at our age, we have to be careful. I shouldn't talk because I take chances and don't always make the smartest choices. I've had days where I...

Jake, If you go online there is a phone number for a Patient Advocate Foundation, you might want to try calling them. I'm very saddened that you are having such a difficult time with this.

I'm going to change my name to "slow motion." I'm at the other end of the spectrum from where I used to be. Whenever I'm doing physical activities seems I rest more than I do the activity. I'm using the word activity because I became too comfortable using the word work I don't consider...

There was a fishing spot on one of the side streets in Rockaway that my father found. The road ended into a small parking lot. Straight ahead was a pier where we fished and crabs from. On the left was a bar with a wooden walkway on the right that went to the back of the building where it turned...

I believe he was on the assembly line building cars one piece at a time.

Searching online all I can find was that he was thrown off a cliff because he stole a chalice. I guess I'll have to find that book to see where my story came from?

Maybe I'm mixing him up with someone else but I remember them saying he was the greatest story teller of his time. Because he had such a convincing mouthpiece he was sent by whomever was the leader ( king, queen, emperor?) into the enemy camp to convince them to meet for a peace conference. The...

I read Aesop's Fables when I was a kid continuously until I finish the book. I had that same book in my bookcase up until recently, as an adult I would glance through it on occasion. I have given a copy of Aesop's Fables to my seven grandchildren. I enjoyed reading all of them, the fox and the...
