The Elderly and the Weather

It is soooo incredibly cold in New York today!  AND IT GOT ME THINKING ABOUT:

THE ELDERY AND THE WEATHER

 Not only does the unusual weather feed into my paranoia about this being the beginning of an ice age, it also got me thinking about why weather reporting has become so inaccurate of late, the importance of predicting the weather and the elderly.

 To answer my first point, I think weather reporting has become inaccurate  because the weather patterns that the computers are picking up are unique in that they have not yet  been recorded by the computer system. Therefore there is  no point of reference no established algorhythm and without a point of reference there can be no prediction.

So in my apocalyptic post technological age the question is: Who would  predict the weather?

(no... I am not smoking too much).

Then I thought of the series The Game of Thrones where the elders are held in high esteem because they CAN predict the weather. These elders had lived enough years to understand the weather patterns that were likely to occur and, therefore could make accurate predictions.

Weather predictions were and are essential and used to time the planting of crops, harvesting, moving, building houses etc. From that I addressed my second issue which is the importance of predicting the weather. I concluded that weather prediction is a skill, a survival skill.

All this fed into my belief  of the importance of the knowledge of the elderly. When technology is eradicated and we become a travelling nomadic people we will need weather predictors, predictors which can only be found in our elder population.

 We are loosing a valuable resource our elderly, by isolating them from the general population in nursing homes and retirement communities.

Because if we don't talk to our elders how can we predict the weather? So talk to your elders. If you can't take them home then visit more often.

 I made that!

Strippers in a Nusing Home? SIGN ME UP!

 

Who says that people in nursing homes should just sit quietly and wait to drop dead?
Come on people you party now you'll want to party then! I saw the piece in the Post the other day about the strippers  in the nursing home and if you look in the background the ladies are having a hoot.

You Go Girls!

Future nursing home people like myself. We have got to unite. If this goes to court and sticks they'll be no more fun for anyone... EVER.  We are condemning our selves  to living out the last years of our life looking out a window waiting for the grim reaper.

Please lawyers  John Ray and Vesselin Mitev please... for all our sakes drop the case.   Do this for the compassionate nurses who care for our loved ones, the management that runs everything smoothly and if I can't appeal to your altruistic tendencies please do this for yourself because when you are wrinkly old men sitting in a nursing home your going to want to see someone young and wiggly dancing in front of you before you pass to the ever after.  Trust me on this one.

And to the family Bruce Youngblood please. Come on! Reconsider! Don't take money from a system already stretched and don't forget your loved one.. Why do you want her to live in a place in which tensions are created when she was obviously having so much fun....... Come on....PLEASE!

And finally to the judge who has to hear this argument please throw it out, find a loophole or something.
