Where
I've Been
I have been in many places, but I've never been
in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.
I've
also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport;
you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family and work.
I would like to go to Conclusions, but you
have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore.
I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place
to go, and I try not to visit there too often.
I've been in Flexible, but only when it was
very important to stand firm.
Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more
often as I'm getting older.
One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense!
It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!
