One Last Try
 
Some time ago, I printed-out a shipping label for
a Mr. Don Butterly of Abington, PA.

I have no idea why...... none.
This seems to happen to me more and more often....
Must be the old "Here After" disease-
(symptom: you come down stairs,
then stand in the kitchen thinking:
"What am I here after??"

Obviously, I was going to send him something.
I thought I'd ask one more time before
throwing the label away.

I find nothing at all in the National Ham Radio Callsign listing for ANY
body named "Butterly". Maybe it wasn't ham radio related?


On the other issue, I usually find it helpful to go back into the room
where I was when I decided to do whatever it was I forgot. Standing in the
room and thinking about what you were doing when you decided to do whatever
it was you forgot more often than not brings it back to memory. good luck

I'll be 60 in January...dammit. I turn around in my chair and things
simply disappear. I used to get very upset about it, but now I just say,
"It'll turn up someday." and carry on, if I can live without it. The
intensive searching will never find it if it's hiding from me.

I have to have my little cellphone, but that's easy to find after I get my
neighbor to call it until I answer them.

I found one of my combs, the other day. It had been "missing" for 3 weeks.
I asked it how its vacation was, but got no answer....yet....(c;

You know you've had a rough night when you wake up and you're outlined in
chalk.

Hi,

Way off topic, but these boatanchors won't do us much good
if we forget how to use them.

On June 20, AP reported on a Dutch study of folic acid
(one of the B vitamins). Taking 800 micrograms/day
(twice the U.S. recommended daily dose)
for a sample group of about 800 people 50 to 75 years old
resulted in tests of memory equivalent to those 5-1/2 years younger,
for the group given the folic acid instead of a placebo.

The pills are cheap, about $4 a hundred at drugstore.com.

73,
Ed Knobloch
