That was due to the 1982 breakup of AT&T. Before that all homes had those black rotary phones because you were paying rent on them. After that everybody started buying push button Cobra phones.

Psychologist Hideki Wada has published a book called "The 80-Year-Old Wall." As soon as the book was published, its sales exceeded 500,000 copies, making it the best-selling book at the time. If this sales trend continues, the book will sell over 1 million copies, making it Japan's best-selling book of the year.

Dr. Wada, 61, is a doctor specializing in mental illnesses in the elderly. He has summarized the secrets of a "lucky" life for 80-year-olds in 44 sentences, which are listed below:

1. Keep moving.

2. Take deep breaths when angry.

3. Get enough exercise so that your body doesn't stiffen.

4. Drink more water when using air conditioning in the summer.
5. Diapers help increase mobility.
6. The more you chew, the more active your brain and body will be.

7. Memory loss is not due to age but to lack of brain use.
8. There is no need to take too much medicine.
9. There is no need to lower blood pressure and sugar unnecessarily.
10. Being alone is not loneliness; it is about spending time peacefully.
11. Laziness is not a shame.
12. There is no need to spend money on a driver's license (a campaign is underway in Japan to get senior citizens to return their licenses).
13. Do what you like; don't do what you don't like.
14. Natural desires remain even in old age.
15. Under no circumstances, do not sit at home all the time.
16. Eat what you like; mild obesity is better.
17. Do everything carefully.
18. Do not associate with people you don't like.
19. Do not watch TV all the time.
20. Instead of fighting the disease, learn to live with it.
21. "When the cart reaches the mountain, the road is visible" - this is the magic phrase of happiness for the elderly.
22. Eat fresh fruits and salads.
23. Bath time should not exceed 10 minutes.
24. If you can't sleep, don't force yourself.
25. Activities that bring pleasure increase brain activity.
26. Say what you feel; don't think too much.
27. Find a "family doctor" as soon as possible.
28. Don't be too patient or forceful; being a "bold senior" is also not bad.
29. It's okay to change your mind sometimes.
30. In the final stages of life, dementia is a gift from God.
31. If you stop learning, you will grow old.
32. Don't crave fame; what you have is enough.
33. Innocence is for the elderly.
34. The more difficult something is, the more interesting it becomes.
35. Sunbathing brings happiness.
36. Do things that benefit others.
37. Spend today comfortably.
38. Desire is the key to longevity.
39. Live happily.
40. Breathe easily.
41. The principles of life are in your own hands.
42. Accept everything calmly.
43. Cheerful people are loved by everyone.
44. A smile brings good luck.

Getting old is not a limit - it is a gift. With the right perspective and daily habits, the years after 60 can be some of the most fruitful years of your life. Let us embrace aging not with fear, but with grace, gratitude, and the wisdom generously shared by Dr. Wada.

*Please don't forget to share this with all the senior youth. Thank you.*🙂

Agreed. Flacco didn't look good in his debut as a Bengal.

Some of these guys are having a hard time understanding their best days are behind them now.

American Football has really become a violent sport. Too many serious injuries taking place. Is it because of the rules changes which were actually made to make the game safer.
There were injuries in the past but not like we're having these days.
Is it the lack of physical conditioning of the players. It's crazy. Broken legs and ankles. Blown knees.
 
Drained pool easily 2-1/2" maybe 3". Clouding up again. According to Holly and Erica the weather babes we shouldn't get near the rain we received the past couple of days.

Month to date, October has seen 3-1/2-4" in the valley depending on where you are located. Normal for this time of year is 1/2" for the entire month.
