During a visit to his doctor, Slatten asked him, "How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in a Long-Term Care Home?"

"Well," he said, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand,Slat said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No," he said. "A normal person would pull the plug."

"Do you want a bed near the window?"

Slatts meant the one in the bathtub but forgot he was speaking to lesser minds and he should have explained which plug so that they could understand.

I think that Slatten would love to have Mack the Attack cat come and room in with him to keep him company in that great big room there. Could yo arrange that for him AuntiE?

We would have to check with AuntiE and we would have to see if
she has any more cats to watch over you. We don't want you
getting lonely now would we?

One would have to talk to AuntiE about the dog as
AuntiE is a cat person don'r be surprised if the answer
is no. If you moved there what would Mama do and
who would take car of her?

pull the plug as in the one in the drain and therefore prevent the tub from overflowing
as against
pull the plug as in give up on life, perhaps as an alternative to wasting away in a old folks hospital (would be my choice if my only choices were old folks hospital and just going to sleep and giving up never to wake up again)

That room is underwhelming for you. My thought is this would be a better choice. It provides space for you to entertain your OPP friends.

This is the best you can have for a d o g. Please note there are multiples though not living breathing. Keep in mind stuffed require less care.

"OPP friends?" Are you referring to Salty and myself, Dear Lady With the money the ol' feller owes us, we almost have to be his friends.
