@RoH - I liked your video.

@SK - One of my dad's friends fooled us about a month ago. We were at a restaurant, and in the middle of a story he was telling us, he just stopped to think for a moment, and then said, "Damn CRS is acting up again". My dad just sorta smiled and nodded, and seeing that, I figured he knew whatever CRS was, but since it was still silent a couple seconds later, curiosity got the better of me, and I finally asked, "What's CRS?" He replied "Can't Remember Shit".

I can't believe I made it this late in life without ever hearing someone say that, because when I laughed about that, my dad seemed surprised that I hadn't heard that line before.

My parents and their friends are in their late '70s. Some of their friends are really falling apart, mentally and physically. On the other hand, my parents seem to be more active then even I am.

I think their secret is to always be busy. If you're too busy with something, you don't really have time to dwell on bad events. It's still important to help and support people who need it, but only to a degree where it's not needlessly hurting you.

Don't forget to live before you die.
