One time, we were on a transit bus, and someone was driving too slow in the HOV lane, so the bus driver (a senior) honked. When the car in front didnt move, he leaned on the horn. Then, he steered the bus back and forth cursing and saying stuff like "Nobody appreciates the Marines" and some other stuff.

What's your story?

Or do you depend on others to drive you. When do you think we seniors should stop driving?

Mine is inexpensive and plain watches. Sort of a reaction to high tech multifunctionalism. Timex and noname novelty watches are a few. My fav is a Skagen from Denmark. SS with a silver face, shiny silver hands and nothing else, no second hand, no numbers, no day/date. Simplicity. And none over $15

It seems impossile but I'm 60 this year. When I was 16 I thought I'd be spent at 50. I have the idea that I'll live another 30 or 40 years. Do you feel your life is almost over or do you expect longevity?

Older people are generally nice, but some didn't have great manners. I know that many people think that old people at some point start becoming like when they were little kids(need more help,etc), but arent things like manners learned when people are young and then not forgotten?? i walk with a limp from Spina Bifida and they were all staring at me in disgust. And also, when i sat down at the dinner area, i saw many whispering about me to each other and the ones who were hard of hearing were yelling to each other "whats with these school kids, they cant help us, why do they volunteer?". why dont these people realize what they are doing? they should know how to act towards other people, especially people like me trying to help. its like they learn manners as children and use it when they are adults, and then it all goes out the window when they get old. im 17 by the way.

I have been here for a few months and I had NO clue people were doing this! Creating more than one account so they can star and answer their own questions! Isn't this cheating?

I know I have made several angry at me by posting this in many ways. But, some of these folks say they are Christians and this is NOT a Christlike thing to do....for merely points, on a site!

Have you noticed this too? Do you do this and if so, why?

bills, etc. With the horror stories about how banks dispose of old documents (i.e, do not shred, but just put in the dumpster as is), it is pretty scary to me. But I am not quite ready to go totally electronic. Anybody else feel this way.

that you were sounding like your mother or father? When did you find yourself saying things that either of your parents used to say to you that would drive you nuts, but then you caught yourself saying the same things?

My gossipy neighbour has a tendency to be malicious with it. I've just found out that she's been spreading rumours that I'm an alcoholic; apparently she hears the chink of glass several times a day.

I am not upset by this, but would like to do something to embarrass her, in the nicest possible way! Nasty is not my style.

As I don't think one or two glasses a week with dinner is classified as being alcoholic, the chinking she hears will be things like bottles of olive oil, vinegar, and my storage jars are glass - all of which are now being rattled more frequently.

Any other suggestions, with a touch of humour preferred, and she is a senior citizen. I'm sure you folks can come up with something.

This site is awash with Trolls who think it is entertaining to post outrageous questions that are extremely racists and bashing...I have seen a few here in Senior Citizens that attack for no reason! Listen to me..these trolls are not harmless! If they take a dislike to you, they will wreck your account and get you kicked off. When you come across a troll's posting, do NOTHING but block the user from your list....if you do not, they can get into all your answers and questions, report them as violations, and you will be banned! Protect yourself, ban all users you suspect are trolls. Trolls rarely have an account that is more than a few days old, usually has less than 100 points. I have a friend here, had 67,000 points, and has been banned by trolls at work..YA does not give a damn about any of us..they prove this time and time again. They do not care who posts violations, have no staff to oversee the place, everything is done by computers....enough violations and you are banned.

I am doing hospice visits for a 67 year-old man with debility. He can't really talk, but he can communicate on some level. He likes to be read to. So, what are some good books/stories to read to him? Maybe something from the 50s, when he was a child? What are some other things you think he would enjoy?

I have used his poems to teach English to ESL students, its very interesting seeing them trying to figure out the "meaning" in the poem - my favourites are Mending Wall and The Road Not Taken. A time to Talk, A Passing Glimpse there are so many good ones.

I can read his poetry all day
