I like to think of it as having an "Etch a Sketch" mind.... one good shake... and its a brand new day...LOL

Ah, yes. Like they say ('they' is the worlds foremost authority), memory is the second thing to go.

Actually, with age, the first thing to go is memory.
I can't remember what the second thing is.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

My problem is that I remember things from 20 or more years ago better than I remember last week. Fortunately, I've been married for over 30 years, and my wife's birthday is the day before the fourth of July. sSo anniversaries and her birthday are easy, which accounts for my continues existence and marital status.

Now I happen to know that one never loses anything. Once it is in memory, it is always there. However, after the main memory is full, your other memories are automatically archived into some remote region of the brain and are almost impossible to access. You can only retrieve them through a unique series of events. Unfortunately, the memory of that series is also archived, so you only retrieve these memories through a coincidence of random events.

The real problem is that you have your thin layer of thinking brain that is stacked on top of the monkey brain, and that is stacked on top of the lizard brain... I think there's a bird brain somewhere in there too, but to get information from the lizard brain, it has to be translated through the monkey brain up to the thinking brain.

So, you have to go from crickets to bananas to forum suggestions, or something like that.

Oh, that's my problem. Thinking too much.
