Random Thoughts or Whatever

[Quadman2]

The pace at which I read and run. Plenty of medical evidence regarding aging's impact on our minds too.

Maths are theory.

Have also heard (biased sources), that we are not as old/young as we appear, but more so the way we think and act.

But, the body doesn't lie... even though we ignore the truth at times! And pay the price for ignoring!

Great music and a superb sonic capture of a concert.

Q

I always wonder about those ads, for "Ageless Male" and other "enhancement" products for older people.

To me, it's like burning the candle at both ends. The piper must be paid, sometime... you may be able to do the stuff you did, for a while longer- but at what eventual cost to your body?

Regards,
Gordon.

Something about "no free lunch".

Humans have tried to dominate one another from the beginning, humans programmed computers, the real question is not whether computers will try to dominate humans but how much empathy computers have "learned" along the way?

Well, speaking from past sports experience, (lots of them) of them, cept rugby. The knocks/grinds/hurts eventually took its toll on me. But swimming is my go-to saviour today; loosening up the connective tissue. Three times a week, and try for four.

I love the weightless relief of a pool for the lower extremities, but don't have ready access to one.

Nailed it nail...quality before quantity!

Q

 

[Quadman2]

So... we consider ourselves (humans) to be at the top of the food chain.

Born toothless/clawless, hairless (for a lot), and unable to forage/deal with our environment for the first 15-20 years.

But our brain is our biggest asset. Tell that to a swimmer meeting a shark or a tiger without a weapon.

My random for the day, eh?


Q

 

[nailer]

The food chain is a circle. Who's on top? I don't know. Third base.

None of the above. It is what it is.

Nailer >>> None of the above. It is what it is.
For me it will be the avoidance of the creepy feeling (all too often now ) when listening to dead musicians.
