Hmmmmm.....

One of the unusual things that living with a fatal, incurable neurodegenerative disease like ALS does is affect your brain in weird ways. Yes, your motor neurons die, and lurking in the background is the certain knowledge that final wishes will be communicated with eye blinks, but lighter stuff happens. Your entire world view morphs into something people try for a lifetime to achieve. Memories become a source of comfort. Friends and loved ones become central. A lifetime of career achievements become peripheral. Pains in the ass become pinpricks, with the emphasis on "pricks". All food tastes great. Traffic jams are meaningless. Very few things truly suck.


But for me, my bullshit detector/surrealistic humor generator went on overdrive!!


Here are some gleanings from today's inet:
