I don't remember all I've done but I think I've done, obviously English, French, Spanish, Portugese, German, Russian, Polish, Italian, Navaho, Innuit, Laotian, Hindi, Thai, Swahili, and Maori...at least that I can recall, maybe Dutch. I should keep track so I don't repeat, but then again, if I can't remember, I doubt others will either.

So there were these scientists studying a frog. They decided to teach the frog to jump on command. 'jump frog' they would say. He did. Then the team decided to expand the test. 'jump frog' they said. He jumped 16 feet! They removed one of his legs. 'jump frog' they said. He jumped 12 feet! A second leg was removed. 'jump frog'; he jumped 8 feet. A third leg removed. 'jump frog'. He jumped four feet. They removed his last leg. 'jump frog'. Nothing. 'jump frog' they commanded. Still nothing. Last chance. 'jump frog'. He doesn't move. Their conclusion? 'Frogs without legs can't hear.' science speaks [until you remove their legs?]

My DH is the surviving beneficiary on an insurance policy his father took out nearly 100 years ago when he served in WWI. DH received $1.89 monthly starting in 1949. (His mother selected that option thinking it would keep him in comic books.) We had to move heaven and earth to get the government to at least consolidate this into an annual check; only proof of his death will stop it. Don't you wonder how many other similar checks are issued where there's no 'sunset' when costs exceed benefit?

seagrass I have worn bilateral hearing instruments since 2003 (and it should have been several years before that!!).
