Exercise Your Brain, or Else You’ll ... Uh ...

By KATIE HAFNER Published: May 3, 2008

SAN FRANCISCO — When David Bunnell, a magazine publisher who lives in Berkeley, Calif., went to a FedEx store to send a package a few years ago, he suddenly drew a blank as he was filling out the forms.


Lacie Argyle

“I couldn’t remember my address,” said Mr. Bunnell, 60, with a measure of horror in his voice. “I knew where I lived, and I knew how to get there, but I didn’t know what the address was.”

Mr. Bunnell is among tens of millions of baby boomers who are encountering the signs, by turns amusing and disconcerting, that accompany the decline of the brain’s acuity: a good friend’s name suddenly vanishing from memory; a frantic search for eyeglasses only to find them atop the head; milk taken from the refrigerator then put away in a cupboard.

Whole Article...

I believe this... my Dad kept his mind active and he had a great memory.

I better excerise my brain now at 40 years of age because there is times when I forget my phone # and address...And I'm being serious...Maybe because I have to much on the brain at the time when I am being asked that info.

Thanks for posting this Rusty, it is useful.

I want to thank the above posters in this thread . I'm older and active physically and mentally. It's scary when you just can't recall and address or phone number or a coworkers name. Nice to know it happens to younger people too!!
