Today we talked about dementia. It started out with a discussion of a news article about a man in Arizona who left his 5 year old grand daughter alone in the desert next to their broken down truck with a loaded gun while he went to get help. Then he forgot what he was doing and wandered home after going to McDonalds. The man's family called the police and they went out and found the girl. She was okay. No one was hurt, but it was a very scary story.
We then started talking about our worries that we may develop dementia in the future. We talked about how all of us are constantly forgetting things or losing track of what we're doing, or becoming easily distracted. It seems to be completely normal, but we had a lot of laughs talking about it.
We then talked briefly about the nutritional value of beer and found that not only does non alcoholic beer contain the same nutrients as regular beer, but many athletes drink non alcoholic beer after workouts as a substitute for sports drinks.
After this one of the students mentioned a personality test had talked about in a previous class, the Myer & Briggs Type Indicator. Everyone was very interested so we spent some time talking about it.
From there we finished the class talking about Star Wars and Star Trek fans. We looked at conventions and talked about cosplay and how some fans will even have theme weddings.
It was a great day, we had a lot of laughs, and I hope to see you all again soon.
