I can't help it. I just can't stay away from the 'news'. CNN, CNS, USA Today, you name it, I like to see what they're saying. Then I like to look at the comments and see what WE are saying (those of us that post on those things). And that's when I get in trouble.
It's all my own fault. Why, oh why, did I log on to every one of them with different passwords? And why can't I remember any of them? There I am all upset by some comment that I want to reply to, and can't remember my password! And by the time I go through the process of proving who I am and getting an email with my forgotten password, I have forgotten whether it was BBC or the Times or Newsweek I was reading.
Which is really just as well, now that I think about it. Because I have a secret suspicion that not all those remarks are really made by average readers. Some of them seem to have been written in order to give the impression that anyone holding that particular opinion is illiterate, and probably high on something. This would of course be done by persons of the opposite opinion. Oh what a sly, sneaky mind I have! But the more I think about it, the more convcinced I am that I am right!
What better way to discredit the opposition party's ideas than to make its supporters seem to be uneducated idiots? Good thing I couldn't remember my password. After all, I wouldn't want to look dumb, too.
Now let's see, what was I going to do?? I forget!

Oh, Grammy! Please don't worry about your memory. My mother's memory is not good as same as you. It is a normal symptom when you get older and older. Please enjoy your beautiful life. ^-^
ReplyDeleteI forget things sometimes, too, Grammy. I find myself wandering around my house trying to figure out what I was getting ready to do...Many times I can't remember where I put something down...moments later.
ReplyDeleteYou are not alone.
I keep my passwords in a file so I can find them them...because I forget them, too. LOL
