The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 18, 2024

More pressure off you, Brutus.

Theresa, is that you?

Forget about what?

My husband told his doctor that something “hurt when I do this.” The doc actually said, “Don’t do that.” I’ve only heard that on old comedy shows.

Forget to pay his bill and he will change his tune.

Is that Doctor Vinny boom botz or Doctor Bendova ?

Going back to Starlink…waited and waited for cable, it came but they can’t keep it active. Starlink is more costly but it always works!

I’ve walked into the room wanting to ask my wife a question. But she has something she wants to share with me. So I wait patiently (and respectfully) for her to finish her thought. It doesn’t take long, only a few seconds, but by the time she is done I’ve forgotten what I wanted to ask her. sigh That’s also when I have to repeat my mantra: If it’s important, I’ll remember. If I don’t remember, it probably isn’t (I hope).

The memory is the second thing to go, and I forgot what the first one is.

Funny thing, Doc, …I DO forget about it!

Sometimes if I walk out of the room, it all comes back….☺️

(what Doc would say that? ) ☹️

a memorable Dr. visit…

Like you needed a wise guy huh Brutus ?

Brutus, once you pass that big 50 in life – it’s downhill from there. Some walk down, some run down, some drive down. Fall apart piece by piece. After 50 – the warranty expires and parts begin to fail. The Sunny side of life enters the Shade and then the Dark.

great… guess that means the bill got taken care of already I’m sure I paid in advance! Have a nice day doc… by the way, when is your patient gonna be coming? :D

My kind of Doctor. However, he probably also told Brutus to not forget to pay his Doctor’s bill though…..

I’ll bet Brutus will not forget Mother Gargle

That’s NOT a real doctor. A REAL doctor would sell you a prescription for $100/pill (including their kickback from the drug company). They are a profit-making industry, after all.

And there you have it………..

Here is a sobering reality Brutus – your memory will never be better than it is today. As well as your back, your knees, your relationships with your mother-in-law and boss, etc.

When he goes home to Gladys and she asks him how the doctor visit went, will he remember what the doctor said?

Getting old, my hearing went. I hear the memory is next, short term memory. What are we talking about?

Hold on Brutus is married, I’m sure his wife tells him everything he needs to know.

I once saw something funny on “Who Wants to be a Millionaire”

Jon Stwart was a contestant. He was playing for the Alzheimer’s Association. Regis informed him that the Alzheimer’s Association would get $125,000 if he got the question right, but if he got it wrong, it’d be $32,000. And then Jon joked by saying “Yeah, but they’d forget about it.”

Aw, man, it was hilarious!!
