Well sure, it's ALWAYS after the LAST injury, ain't it?

they should change that. :(


It's just like my glasses, I always find them in the last
place I look. I wish that would change to the first place.

Would that then be the last place you looked Ernie? Or would you continue
lookin'?

One of the signs of being either much older than I thought or more
distracted than I noticed, is that I will occasionally find something,
grab it in one hand, or put it on in the case of glasses or hats, and
then go on looking. This has been known to give me a better
indication of where my inventory of miscellaneous items in my home
are, but I do feel awfully damn foolish when I realize what I've done.
So far it's only occasional.

bellowing, dammit, i have lost my putter! where the hell is my putter?
then, to my fellow players great delight, someone says--it's in your hand,
you damned fool!
i don't know how many times--i just wish it were a helluva lot fewer.

It will become less occasional and more varied
as time goes on.

.. . . and, of course, you (meaning at very least, I) don't give a damn about
looking foolish as you (I) get older.

Isn't it wonderful? I was talking to some silvertip guy who
approached me as I was undoing a tangle one day and he remarked on my
choice of fishing clothing (nicely, I must add). I replied that as I
was old, I didn't have to look as if I knew what I was doing. Nor did
I even have to know what I was doing as long as I had fun, obeyed the
laws, and didn't hurt myself too badly. I think he had more to say,
but he was chuckling too much to get to it. Or else realized that it
might not be anything I'd care to deal with...

On my last final exam of my undergraduate career, taking the hardest exam of
my undergraduate career (structural geology with the infamous "Dr. B" who
never gave an A), I had to make a diagram with lots of calculations and
lines. My roommate and I were both odds-on favorites to break his long
record, and we were working frantically through the test to do a great job.
On the last problem, with time running out, I drew some initial lines, did
some calculations, then looked around in vain for my ruler to complete my
drawing. Dr. B was saying "OK, bring up your exams" and my damn ruler was
nowhere to be found. I felt behind my ears, looked under my chair, under my
thigh, under my paper, all in desperation. Finally, I just used the edge of
a spare pencil I had to make the best line I could in the situation, walked
up (looking back over my shoulder at my seat in absolute wonder and
confusion), and passed in my test to Dr. B, saying (say this out loud)
"Thorry ith tho methy, I theem to have juth loth my luler."

He got a total kick out of it, having witnessed the entire process.

Some would call this a senior moment - I prefer to think of it as an
intellectual overload!
