Dear Heloise: Three days ago, a woman called me and asked if I had received my new or updated Medicare card. I said I had not, nor had I heard of such a thing. She said I need a new one because my old card was now invalid. Then she asked me if my card began with a number followed by a letter of the alphabet. I told her it was none of her business. She claimed she had to verify whether I was the person I claimed to be.
Well, we’ve closed out the books on another year with the baby boomer herd continuing to thin. We have a new president soon taking over and promising to solve all our problems on day one and I’ve got one he could help me with: how to fold up properly a prefolded bedsheet.
I just talked to an old friend who told me it is very cold in his town. He wonders what he can do for fun in icy conditions.
Reflecting on 1977 when President Jimmy Carter was elected, I realize that I didn’t follow politics closely in those days.
