Remember when "Casual Friday" began? The actual date doesn't matter. What is important is that it started a downward spiral of all things beautiful and classy. That was when men shed the power and authority inherent in a tie and started slowly declining to feminization. Today, "well-dressed" men wear showy necklaces, earrings, and bracelets instead of a tie. That's the new soft … [Read more...] about The Way We Were
When What You Love Is Gone
I was listening to Frank Sinatra sing "When Your Lover Has Gone." As he moaned and groaned his way through the lyrics, I couldn't help but think how much those words applied to some retirees who loved their work so much that it was clear their job was pretty much the sum and substance of their life. It was painful to let it go. Many seniors suffer from depression, which … [Read more...] about When What You Love Is Gone
It’s Not Over Until It’s Over
A young woman often asks, "How can I put old on hold?" She's understandably annoyed if I tell her to read my book. The questioner usually expects a quick and easy magic answer. It's easy if you start early in life and follow through with a growth-oriented mindset, diet, and lifestyle. But Before anything else, you have to ask and answer some essential questions: Do … [Read more...] about It’s Not Over Until It’s Over
How Seniors Can Easily Boost Their Health
Anyone who thinks the typical American diet provides all the required nutritional elements to stay healthy is seriously misguided. Don't bother asking most doctors for nutritional guidance. You will likely be told: "Just eat a balanced diet, and you will be fine. Don't waste your money on vitamins." Overlook that he was probably not taught about nutrition in medical school. … [Read more...] about How Seniors Can Easily Boost Their Health
How Seniors Are Maneuvered Into Decline
lOverheard from a healthy 83-year-old man:
"I am a completely illiterate computer person, not tech-savvy at all. I have no idea how to transfer photos from my cameras to the computer, so I will have to wait till I find a little kid to do it for me."
He laughed … [Read more...] about How Seniors Are Maneuvered Into Decline
They Really Don’t Like Us
I belong to a group of researchers scattered across the US. Some in the group have contacts in Germany, Italy, and Australia. We share information and try to stay abreast of current political and social events that shape or eventually will shape our lives. The different pieces of information from various parts of the US or elsewhere are often similar. For example, before the … [Read more...] about They Really Don’t Like Us
What This Doctor Grapples With
Many people think all doctors are wealthy. That's not true. Wealthy doctors are usually those trained for a specialty such as cosmetic surgery or any popular specialty practice that doesn't accept insurance. I recently received a letter from a local doctor that is reminiscent of what many insurance-accepting doctors deal with. Read it carefully and think about it.
The War Against Old People
We've heard or seen it a hundred times every day: "Joe Biden is too old to run for office." NO, HE IS NOT TOO OLD TO RUN FOR OFFICE! As TV Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary, AKA "Mr. Wonderful," would say in jest, "Stop the madness!" Joe is old, but his chronological number (age) does not control his mental or physical ability. Maybe the constant chanting about being too … [Read more...] about The War Against Old People
There Is A Long Road Ahead So Plan Ahead
Decline starts the day we are born, but evidence isn't visible until you reach your late thirties. That's when you begin to see annoying facial changes: puffiness under the eyes; skin texture becomes more coarse and lax; fine lines appear; jawline isn't as firm as it once was. Much of it reflects how we have been living, although we refuse to believe that simple … [Read more...] about There Is A Long Road Ahead So Plan Ahead
Will You Be Eating Your Neighbor?
Early in the COVID hoax, I stated many times that the purpose for the government's frantic insistence that everyone be vaccinated was not based on a health concern. It was not my imagination; I cited reliable sources for my comments, yet I was roundly criticized for spreading misinformation. For speaking out, I was banned (and still am banned) from that ultimate bastion for … [Read more...] about Will You Be Eating Your Neighbor?
