Nice to see you!

Three major events occurred for me last year (2010), all in the space of about 2 weeks. I turned 50. The following day I got married. Two weeks later, my oldest daughter became pregnant with her first child and my first grandchild.

Most middle-aged people will tell you that in their minds, they still feel 20 something. It's the same for me.

Wasn't it only yesterday that I was planning a night out with guys from the surf club? That gorgeous new perm. Flaired, cuffed denims and the red t-shirt with the off-the-shoulder frill. Corked platform wedgies. **sigh**

Suddenly I'm looking in the mirror and wondering how 30 years can flash by so damned quickly!

So here I am in cyberspace, sharing my genuine shock and horror with anyone who'll listen and maybe I'll even meet some other over 50s who find themselves in the same predicament!

Welcome to my dilemna!!

Believe it or Not

It seems, these days, that it’s not necessary for you to use your own brain to perform many tasks. This fact fills me with dread for our future. This gives “the powers that be” free rein to control and/or manipulate all the information, education, facts, history and future offered to us.

I don’t know about you, but at my age, I’m already noticing changes in the telling of history.

[For instance, in 1969 when man (apparently) landed on the moon, it is reported that children all over the world sat in their class rooms watching it live on TV.

Fact: The astronauts walked on the moon for 2.5 hours. The time in Australia was 1pm, so it stands to reason that we were watching it in the classroom.

In Washington USA, it was 11pm. In London, it was 4am. In South Africa, it was 5am. In India, it was 8.30am. In Russia, it was 6am. Brazil was midnight.

Therefore, children all over the world were NOT sitting in their classrooms watching men walking on the moon.

Even the moon landing itself happened at 6.17am in Australia, which is 4.17pm in USA - after school hours.]

So here are some ways to perform tasks, create things or gather information without using your brain…
