Old peoples brains

[bersaguy]

My children will be relieved when they read this.

      

    The Explanation

      

    Brains of older people are slow because they know so much.  People do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to recall facts because they have more information in their brains, scientists believe.  Much like a computer struggles as the hard drive gets full, so, too, do humans take longer to access information when their brains are full.

      

    Researchers say this slowing down process is not the same as cognitive decline.   The human brain works slower in old age, said Dr. Michael Ramscar, but only because we have stored more information over time. The brains of older people do not get weak. On the contrary, they simply know more.

      

    Also, older people often go to another room to get something and when they get there, they stand there wondering what they came for.  It is NOT a memory problem, it is nature's way of making older people do more exercise.
    SO THERE!!

      

    I have more friends I should send this to, but right now I can't remember their names.   So, please forward this to your friends; they may be my friends, too.

By that reasoning, I really DO know everything.

There are two sure signs of old age: one is losing your memory, and....well, I forgot the other one.

Excuse me haven't you posted this before? Or was that someone else on another forum? Huh what's my name??

I have a friend who has a theory that memories are like marbles in a tube. The tube can only hold so many, and if you add a new marble, one drops out the other end and is gone forever.

 

He says he is always worried that the marble that drops out is the one that reminds him to drop his pants before going to the bathroom. He says that he really likes that marble.

_{There's nothing to worry about until you have your hand on the bathroom doorknob and can't remember if you are going in or coming out!}
