I Have Not Been Notified, As Of Yet | Eastern NC Now

Bet you did not know that, before you get old, the Federal Government must notify you that you are about to start getting old.

ENCNow
    I recently read an article that had a quote in it as follows...

   
"Some of these now-aging men believe they can improve their chances of getting government pensions and mental health care"

    Did you catch the phrase that caught my attention and triggered this Foolishness...Or Is It posting?

    If you zeroed in on "now-aging", you are on the mark!

    This phrase started the Smartfella wondering about when is it that we begin to age. Silly me, I always thought that process was pretty automatic and started as soon as we were born. Guess I am wrong again.

    Now that I know that I have been wrong all these years it seems to me that there must be some kind of notification from a governmental agency to tell us that the Aging Process has started.

    This is important stuff. It would not seem proper that the Aging Process would start unbeknownst to us. We ought to be properly informed of what is about to happen to us. We should have to sign a formal Receipt of Aging Notification.

    Armed with this knowledge, is it possible to beat the system? Could we not prevent the Aging Process from putting its unwelcome hitch in our get-along? ...
    • If it is done by the US Postal Service, can we move and not give a forwarding address?
    • If it is done by Email, could we not find out the governmental agency that sends the emails and put a block into our Email Options to keep the bad news from getting to us?
    • If it is done by Twitter, could we not ... Hold on a minute! I think there must be a Federal Law that forbids using a Tweet to convey such a momentous life-changing message. All of you Twits out there reading this, don't you worry none about your Tweets.

    This Foolishness...Or Is It has been the most difficult one for me to put together. This is very unsettling to me. My Foolishnesses usually flows from my fingers tips easily. Is it possible that my Aging Process has already started and there really is no Federal Government Notification Mechanism in place? If that be the case, it just does not seem fair.

    Would I kid u?
