SEENAGER

I AM A SEENAGER. (SENIOR TEENAGER)

I HAVE EVERYTHING THAT I WANTED AS

A TEENAGER, ONLY 65 YEARS LATER.
I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO SCHOOL OR WORK.
I GET AN ALLOWANCE EVERY MONTH.
I HAVE MY OWN PAD.
I DON'T HAVE A CURFEW.
I HAVE A DRIVER'S LICENSE AND MY OWN CAR.
 
I HAVE ID THAT GETS ME INTO

BARS AND THE WHISKY STORE.

THE PEOPLE I HANG AROUND WITH

ARE NOT SCARED OF GETTING PREGNANT.

LIFE IS GOOD! ALSO,

YOU WILL FEEL MUCH MORE INTELLIGENT

AFTER READING THIS.
 
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!!
