One more bit of the Seattle Longitudinal Study tonight. Fun for the most part, but I don’t do too well remembering 9 digit numbers to repeat to them – backwards. But there is a group of 10 words that you look at and repeat back to them – 3 times, and then when you are not expecting it, a 4th time.

butter, arm, shore, cabin, queen, pole, engine, grass, ticket, letter

It was relatively easy for me to get 9 words, and I would manage to bring up the last one before time ran out. I made up a story, about the cabin of course. At the Cabin on the Shore, with the Grass blowing in the wind, a “totem” Pole of a log stuck in the sand. Butter on pancakes in the morning, the engineer looking at an Engine (any engine), getting a plane Ticket to get there, and writing Letters home while sitting on the Queen (really a double) bed.

For this year the memory seems OK.
