It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

I solved the problem of remembering my phone numbers the house and cell are the same except for the prefex. I think.Bigest problem I have is wearing out the ground between the shop and the house. I go there and come back because I forgot what I went there for. So then I got to the other shop hoping somthing there will remind me why the hell I'm doing wondering around the yard. I go to town for parts and wind up making a dozen trips because I forget the list(6times) I wish gas was cheaper then my memory wouldn't bother me so.

Hey, Guess what.. I read a report the other day that stated us old'uns actually had a better memory for numbers and such. Reason being that the new generation uses cell phones with directories, and other convenience items like Blackberries etc. So, they got lazy recall capability. Also, we are said to be better at basic math skills. Same reason... no calculators in our elementary days! Now, if I could just find my reading glasses, I'd go balance my checkbook, and call someone!

....and I thought my short term memory was bad.
I just went out to the shop to poly prime 3 pieces off my car - and I found two of them(the doors) on a couple of horses and couldn't find the third - because I forgot what else needed another coat. I had to come back to the house and start all over again. Since I cleaned up the shop this morning I had forgotten that I had hung the grille shell from a hook - the 3rd piece.
Now....what else was I going to prime other then the grille shell....Dave

I was finally able to get the song and video today from Bob's first post. Oh Lord, it sounded like my autobiography put to music.
Hope my wife don't hear and see it, or I will hear about it for weeks.Bob
