NO Nursing Home for me! With the average cost for a Nursing Home per day reaching $188.00, there is a better way when we get old & feeble. I have ascertained that I can get a nice room at the Holiday Inn for around $65.00...that leaves $123.00 a day for beer, food (room service), laundry, gratuities and special TV movies. They have a swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge, washer, dryer, etc. Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap. Super 8 is somewhat more economical and they have a free breakfast, though you usually have to walk next door for lunch and dinner. There may be a bit of a wait to get that first floor room, but that's OK, it takes months to get into decent nursing homes. There is the Senior Bus, the Handicap bus (if you fake a decent limp), a Church bus or van, cabs, and even a regular bus. For a change of lunch take the Airport Bus and eat at one of the fast food cafe's there. The Inn has security, and if someone sees you drop over, they will call an ambulance. And should you break a hip, the American Way is to sue. What more can you ask for? As a bonus, they all have AARP and other Senior discounts. So: When I reach the Golden age help me keep my grin Just check my old rickety rear into the nearest Holiday Inn!

Chuck...thinking rules are meant to be followed without question, especially by the perfectly perfect."""""""" This shows one chink in your perfection, my Friend. You have failed to realize that those of us who are perfectly perfect are the Rule Standard.... We set the rule; we Lead, others Attempt to follow. I have always thought, that after having experienced a few dips into icy cold water in the middle of the night, that a man could exercise his waist when he leans over to lift up the lid, AND by doing so, it does give him a longer life expectancy... ;)ROFLOL...
