kenh: Had me an official Stress Test yesterday. Guess I passed, I'm still here. The most stressful bit, as a Type II diabetic, was not eating anything for like 16 or 18 hours...
Mar 21, 2023 6:01:51 GMT -5
clawhammer7: Glad you're still here with us, Ken...you oughta come here for those stress tests...only gotta fast for 8-12 hours, and they'll get you in early 'cause you're diabetic.

richard: A lot of the things they poke and prod in the name of medicine for us seniors are not a lot of fun. But they can keep the old body plodding along with the help of all that.

johnknopf: Sure, but there's always the risk of losing one's mental faculties long before the body finally gives up. I've seen it, sadly. The old-timers were gone in their forties, fifties and sixties (if they were lucky). "Geriatrics" must have been unknown then!

clawhammer7: That's very true, John, but there are others who remain sharp...my buddy's dad just celebrated his 100th birthday, and he's got it all together.

johnknopf: An exceptional exception to the rule, Claw! My mom sang with musicians in their eighties, nineties and hundreds. One fiddler made it to 104, I believe. And a pianist made it past 100 as well, and both were sharp as a tack! Not common though.

clawhammer7: Well, John, I'm in my seventies, and my mind is as sharp as a well-used butter knife.....
Mar 22, 2023 11:12:17 GMT -5
kenh: Watch out for those butter knives Claw, you can give yourself a serious bruise with one of those!
Mar 23, 2023 6:03:40 GMT -5
johnknopf: A certain butter-knife I know has a birthday today! Not giving out any names, but think of clawhammers...
Mar 23, 2023 7:37:50 GMT -5
clawhammer7: Thanks, guys! All I can think about is butter knives giving me bruises.....
Mar 23, 2023 8:37:36 GMT -5
kenh: Happy Bruise Day Claw!!
Mar 23, 2023 21:46:42 GMT -5
clawhammer7: Thanks, Kenh!
Mar 24, 2023 1:01:32 GMT -5
johnknopf: Happy Rainday, everybody. Or Chillday, or Darkday. And IADD, too. You're obligated to dulcimorize today!

clawhammer7: It must be dark, chilly, and rainy in the Northern climes, eh, John?...Sunny, and a bit cool here in East Texas.....
