Accumulating years should not mean decelerating gears. I need to rev up my rever upper in any way possible. Healthy eating, vitamins, exercise and mnemonics. Yes, that's right, I need to trick my brain to remember. By making it fun and challenging. How else could I remember how many days in a month or when "i" comes before "e"? I could have never remembered the order of cranial nerves without first learning, "On Old Olympus Towering Tops, A Famous Vocal German Viewed Some Hops." These days, I try to remember names by associating absurd visuals in combinations so bizarre as to leave a lasting impression. So if I get hysterical when introduced to you, you will know why. What was your name again?
