Reasonably sane Dad/Uncle Jim pretending that his friend's BB gun is a real firearm.I have been trying to make light of this Alzheimer's thing, but only Clark answered or made comment on my last post, so I guess everyone's getting all weirded out about the disease. I am convinced that, if I keep taking all the goodies I've been given, most of you won't notice a difference in me at all for a long time, if ever. In other words, I'll be just as annoying or delightful as you've always found me. But I'm doing something wrong, because everyone seems to be afraid to comment any more.
Everything I've said in the last two posts is correct as far as I know it, but we're dealing with very long periods of time here. Although it didn't strike me as funny, what the doctor said about a stroke or a heart attack taking me out before the Alzheimer's gets that far is probably quite true. I could be around for many years, sending out annoying emails, dumb jokes, and politically incorrect proclamations.
In other words, the disease is virtually stopped in its progress at this point, and it's perfectly alright to treat me as you always have. In the case of virtually all of you, that was pretty good.
Now, does anyone have a good .45-70 or .223 they'd like to let go for cheap? I have years and years of recreational shooting ahead of me, and I'd like to get back at it.
