Mortality

A bad day for feeling young.
I tried the "clock test" for Alzheimer's on this page: http://www.pbs.org/theforgetting/symptoms/testing.html and my clock pretty much matched the description of early Alheimer's. So, I had my boss take the test. His clock looked exactly like the "good" example.

While waiting for the dentist, I read an article in Bicycling magazine which stated that high mileage cyclists are at increased risk of osteoporesis. I did over 5,000 miles in 2004.

The dentist spent a long time examining my tongue, muttered something like "Hmm ... might be precancerous." He took some pictures, and asked me to see him in a month. He might recommend a biopsy. 

I think I'll go to bed now.
