During a visit to my doctor, I asked him, "How do you determine whether or not an
older person should be put in a Long-Term Care Home?"
"Well," he said, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket
to the person ~ to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it is
bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No" he said. "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
