Hah! Suckered you in! This is a blog on memory. Although I must say that I will probably always remember Fifty Shades 
as well as I remember reading my first "adult" fiction at the tender age of 13. And I do remember it, The Golden Hawk by Frank Yerby. It was one of those bodice rippers with the hunky sea captain thing going on. Forward (didn't I just see that word used in some campaign? How soon we forget.) then to the topic. On Feb. 22 of this year, I wrote a blog entitled: Every memory soon becomes fiction. It's a quote from Ernest Hemingway. I found this article in the Huffington Post and I thought I'd pass it on because so many of us baby boomers are worried about Alzheimer's. We'll walk from one room to the next with a purpose to do so and by the time we get to the other room...realize we have forgotten that purpose. Not to worry. There's a reason for it and many of the other worrisome memory lapses we might have. Hopefully this will relieve you of some of your anxiety. Read more...

rant on the US and our possible use of torture (water boarding specifically). If you haven't seen it, here's the link. Caution, funny Mr. Shep uses a few choice expletives to make his point:
