Never Let the Brain Go Idle: George Carlin’s Take on Aging
An email I received a few days back was George Carlin's View on Age. This is a very amusing look at the state of mind of humans as they age. Yet aging is an inevitable part of life. As the years go by, our bodies change, and wrinkles and gray hair become our constant companions.... Continue Reading →
One Billion Killed from Toxic Inhalation
(NEW YORK) — Tobacco use killed 100 million people worldwide in the 20th century and could kill one billion people in the 21st unless governments act now to dramatically reduce it, the World Health Organization said in a report Thursday.
