This has been a busy week in the odd news category. A couple of the mainstream news items that I am sure you heard…of course you did…because it was reported over and over again… The TSA is now going to let passengers bring small pocket knives on board and 2 hockey sticks, or two golf clubs or 2 ski poles per person. The TSA doesn't believe knives to be a threat but you still have to keep your shampoo down to 3 ounces or less. Then we all heard the chilling tape of the nurse that refused to administer CPR to a dying patient. It came out that the woman apparently had a DNR order in place so, I believe that the nurse wasn't in the wrong. It didn't make it any easier listening to the audio. I, for one, think I am going to recheck my “advanced directive” and make sure that everyone can and should, at least give it a shot, to save my life. Yes, remember the broccoli incident? Yes, the next time I aspirate on broccoli and try to die in the middle of a restaurant, I want CPR… the Heimlich Maneuver first, then CPR.

that I was middle-age but now realize that I would have to live to be 116 to justify that term. If wisdom comes with age, I am wiser than some, older than many, and more cynical than most. My blog is to jot down the nonsense I
see, hear and think about while I still have all my faculties working.
