It's Been A While, I Know

Hard To Fucking Believe

I am 68 years old. I don't feel 68 years old. I don't believe that I think or act as if I am 68 years old, but I am. Sometimes I am so in disbelief of my age that I take out my IPhone, go to the camera and reverse the view so that I can look at myself on the camera screen. It's still hard to believe.

The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming

My sense of smell has disappeared. It affects my sense of taste and that is why I like chocolate and other sweets so much. I can taste them. To be honest, I don't think that I have smelled one of my farts for the past 5 years, maybe more. When I take a dump it has to be something really special before I know about it.

Tonight there was a Russian player in the Poker Room who smelled so horribly that I could smell him. The players were made crazy by his foul odor. People kept moving to any open seat at his table to avoid having to sit next to him. As Juan, the regular Poker Room cashier once said, while surrounded by Russians, "Deodorant must be very expensive in Russia."

How Far We Have Come

 I am watching the Rolling Stone's movie Crossfire Hurricane. It traces the Rolling Stones from their very beginning. At one point the song "Let's Spend the Night Together is playing in the background. It brought back an interesting memory. I should first mention how I am always astounded by the language that we hear on TV these days. People talking about what balls someone has, using the word ass, and many other things. I remembered how when the Stones wanted to sing this song, and I am guessing it was during an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show, the were not permitted to sing the title as it was. The idea of two people spending the night together was too sinful for public airing on TV. They were forced to change the lyrics to "Let's spend some time together". If they appeared today to sing the song I wouldn't be surprised to hear "Let's Fuck".

When you are explaining something to someone when they respond with something that sounds like, "Ahhhh, okay, okay" that means that they have no idea what you are talking about. Not only that, it also means that they want you to stop talking.
