“Old age
ain’t no place for sissies” – Bette Davis
It may take a decade – or several – but when you eventually realize the ladder of success has a flip top – you can hop off and have a whole lot more fun exploring the spooky fringe.
'Thelma' strikes back
Things no one tells you about getting older: They’re still not telling.
According to my mom: NO
ONE ANSWERS the OVER 60 Free Legal Help for Seniors Hotline.
It is a perpetual time
suck that sends you from one recorded line to the next. She
called (severely
overheated) to inform me of that travesty shortly before I was due
at my health appointment [perfectly timed for my blood pressure update].
After
a few quick questions and a google search, I redirected her to the main/online
page/website for that department and left for my appointment.
She cooled down, found
the site, filled out a form and has been advised that she is on a list and
someone will call in 3 to 5 days. The clock is ticking… along with the fuse. [3 to 5 days turned into weeks.]
This is why I prefer
dealing with the endless parade of non-physical, unexplained enigmas [ETs,
Ghosts, Fairies, Sasquatch, etc.], and all things liberated from the inane,
bureaucratic fixated wormhole commonly referred to as ‘reality’…
For Mom - and all elders
trying to adjust to an increasingly fickle social landscape - 'Thelma' is based
on the real-life experience of writer-director Josh Margolin's grandmother: Trailer
Link.
In the film, the 93-year-old Thelma (June Squibb) gets duped by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson, then sets out on a treacherous quest across the city to reclaim what was taken from her.
The film world premiered to critical acclaim at Sundance,
where Magnolia landed rights in a competitive situation. Details. Source. June 2024 release date.

Mystery unsolved: The Hum
Can you hear the Hum? This video explores the
mystery. YouTube.
In the comments: “I lived in Taos for many years,
and I have personally heard the hum. For me, the sound is louder on the other
side of town toward the mountains, and not out by Two Peaks and the Gorge
Bridge. I talked to an old-time local about it, and he told me there is a
“hollow” mountain in Taos Canyon, containing a secret military installation.
This is consistent with another incident that happened to me in the canyon, so
this is plausible. Also.. For a brief time during a return to Taos, I lived in
the same hotel you stayed at for about 6 months. It looks like the place has
experienced a major renovation since then, haha. Great video!”
