JEOPARDY! Fights Dementia and It's FUN! - AARP offers Memory Games but Since They are NO FUN... I Never Play Them...

I'd rather Have Dementia than Play UN FUN Memory Games... I Only Have a Few More Years to Live and Doing THAT is Not My Idea of a Happy Life... 

and then SG On Mastodon Said: 
So you've mentioned dementia and Alzheimer's, and your diagnosis and the drugs you take for it.
How did it start for you? What did you notice? Can you write about it in your blog?

I've tried to talk to old programmers, about the changes the notice in their brains, but they didn't want to talk about it.

I can sort of see why. It's the same journey for everyone, and and it bites everyone, and who wants to talk about that? It's acknowledging the end, and who wants to do that?

and I Replied:
I've noticed that sometimes it takes a week to remember someone's name... important people from my past... Like The Names of Women I've had Sex With... If anything should make a person MEMORABLE, that should make them stand out... anyway...

I don't take any drugs to combat Dementia... mostly I DO NOT Take Alcohol, Marijuana or any other Illegal Drugs... I DO Take Coffee Every Day... and that Helps me...

and I Read a Book Called "Still Here" by Ram Dass... and That Has some Wisdom about Getting Old and Dying... https://www.ramdass.org/still-here/

I Have Found that Writing on My High School Alumni FaceBorg Page is a Good Way to Exercise My Brain... Especially Since Many of the Other People on that Group Experienced the Same Events and they Can Verify Facts... or Bring up Subjects that I Had Forgotten all about... and then I Say: "Oh Yeah! I Remember Doing That!" 

In General:  The Internet Has Helped me Fill Up the Long Days of Retirement... Chatting with People about Subjects of Common Interest... For Example: Someone Posted a Photo of Jerry Garcia's Guitar Effect Pedals... and Someone Else asked: "What are the Names of Those Boxes?" So... Two of Us did Internet Research and Identified Every One... and Then a Third Person Published the Official List!

Jerry Garcia's Guitar Effect Pedals
From the Top:
A Guitar Tuner.
Real Tube Reverb.
TRIO (Unknown)
Unknown

Top Row L-R: 
Octaver, Overdrive, Equalizer, Envelope Filter... 

Bottom Row L-R: 
Overdrive, Equalizer, Phase Shifter... 

and It was Fun Doing the Collaborative Research!

Traditionally, Men Would Work Like a Slave Their Entire Life... Retire... and Fail to Find Anything to Do With Their Time... and Die Quickly... From Boredom or Alcoholism... After All, Drinking All Day and All Night WILL Help You Pass The Time...
After All, Previous Generations Did Not Have the Internet... and Keeping Busy was a Challenge... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~ 

I Find that On FaceBorg Some People Just Want to Argue... and Try to Prove Me Wrong... on Every Statement... I Believe That It's Impossible for Me to Be Wrong 100% of the Time... SO... I Just BLOCK those People and Report them to The FaceBorg Brain Police... and I Never Read their Hate Speech Ever Again! 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~ 

Not Only do I Love Playing JEOPARDY! but I Also Like Wheel of Fortune and America Says... All Three Shows ask me to Come up with an Answer to a Puzzle... Gives me a Short Time to Shout It Out... and Then Tells me the Correct Answer... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

I Also Like Playing With Photo Programs... It's FUN to Write MEMES and Post 'em Online! It's a Good Way to Help Brainwashed TrumpNiks® WAKE UP! and Stop Believing Lies!

Save America From Trump - Vote Democratic meme - meme

Using the Same Color Scheme and Typeface... I Defiled tRUMPs Slogan... 

Mockery of a tRUMP Slogan: Promises Made, Promises Broken - meme - gvan42

Mockery of a tRUMP Slogan: 
"Promises Made, Promises Broken"
With an Upside Down American Flag...
Signalling Distress... Emergency... Danger!

WAKE UP! meme - It's FUN, It's FREE and Everybody's Doing It! - gvan42

GOP is DOOMED - meme - gvan42 - Futurama News Mockery

Most Voters are Young People, Women
Minorities or College Graduates. 
All Those Groups Vote Democratic. 

The Quantity of Uneducated, Racist, 
Old White Men is Shrinking... 
and NOT being Replaced...

Wrong Question on Jeopardy TV Show. Artist Roy Lichtenstein used Ben Day Dot Patterns NOT PIXELS.

They said he was famous for paintings that used Pixels.
Pixels had not been invented yet... Roy painted in the 1960s before computer art.
I contacted Jeopardy but Got No Answer.... HOWEVER, when watching this show that the Questions Might Be Wrong...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Lichtenstein
His first work to feature the large-scale use of hard-edged figures and Ben-Day dots was Look Mickey (1961, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.).[20] 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben-Day_dots 


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel  


I contacted Jeopardy TV Show via email and on Facebook... Automated Acknowledgement received.
