Textul de pe ultima copertă
Senior moments come in all shapes and sizes, and can strike at any age. Of course, you might chalk up the phenomenon to the stress of modern-day life, but this isn t the case at all. They have plagued human beings for centuries. Just as senior moments are not confined to a specific age group, neither are they respecters of class or intelligence. Comprising the experiences of everyone from the famous to the infamous, Senior Moments is chock-full of advice, anecdotes, confessions, quotes, tips, and excuses. Replete with everything Shelley Klein forgot to put in her previous book whether coming to grips with new-fangled technology or forgetting your best friend s name it explores the whole spectrum of annoyances hounding us as we go gray at the temples, add a few inches to the midsection, and keep forgetting what day of the week it is. And it dishes it all out without straining its back or, more to the point, your back as you laugh your way through the realization that, from everyday folks to politicians to brilliant scientists, we ve all fallen victim to the curse of senior momentitus.The vet who inadvertently burned down a farm with a jet of flame from the rear end of a cowThe nice older lady who pulled a gun on four men stealing her car . . . her car?Lady Di and Prince Charles s verbal slips while making their wedding vowsThe robber who fell asleep on the job"
