Well, it seems I was a bit mistaken on my last post. I inadvertently left out the death of Ed McMahon which threw off my mention of Hollywood’s three-death rule. If we add Ed to the timeline previously created, we now have three deaths in one cycle – David Carradine, Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett. [...]
Farrah Fawcett, 62, and Michael Jackson, 50, both died today although under very dissimilar circumstancs. Farrah succumbed to cancer after a 3-year battle during which she became almost a hero. They don’t seem sure what caused Jackson’s demise; it is under investigation. Farrah went from pin-up girl status to someone with a lot of fortitude [...]
For those empty nesters who hate to get a second opinion for fear of making their doctor mad or are afraid insurance won’t pay for it, think again. There are several good reasons to get a second opinion and if your doctor is any kind of doctor, he/she shouldn’t be put off because you want [...]
A couple of days ago I posted some hurricane-preparedness tips. Now I’m posting a list of some things you may want to have ready in your personal hurricane-preparedness kit: A first-aid kit with important everyday medicines Your personal prescription medicines One gallon of water per day per person Battery-operated radio and flashlight and some extra [...]
Young folks may not think old folks ever get married, but they do! In our retirement community where we live, it’s a regular Peyton Place. (The youngsters probably won’t know what I’m talking about!) Anyway, there are a lot of weddings around here and they’re much more relaxed affairs than first weddings for young people. [...]
The hurricane season is upon us (well, those who live in hurricane-prone areas, at least) so I thought I would mention a few things about being ready if a hurricane happens to come your way. One important thing to determine before hurricane season arrives is where the nearest hurricane shelter is that you will be [...]
I just read this article about a Bonny Eagle High School senior being denied his diploma because, as he went onstage to pick up the diploma, he blew a kiss to his mother. The school was apparently just trying to keep things calm and horseplay to a minimum. Sounds good, but give me a break [...]
Something everyone fears these days is Alzheimer’s Disease. In case you’re wondering, here are the 10 warning signs of Alzheimer’s Disease: 1. Memory Loss. This is generally concerned with forgetting recently learned things, and not just phone numbers and names. 2. Difficulty performing familiar tasks. These tasks include things that most people do without even [...]
Our kids and grandkids are planning on a visit in July so I’ve been looking at air flights and have seen a few things I’d rather not. For instance, on the airlines I was looking at, they charge $15 for the first bag of checked luggage, $25 for the second and $50 for each bag [...]
I was just reading an article that was discussing the possibility that there isn’t as much wind out there as there used to be. Of course, they attribute it to global warming but none of them are really sure. They have all these scientific instruments that measure wind speed and such. My only comment is [...] |
