High tech assistance in the aging process

There’s good news for the 10,000 Americans who turn 65 each day: technology will make aging a lot easier, reports the Association of Mature American Citizens. AMAC says research into the use of new technologies is being conducted at several universities.

They are looking into how best to use a variety of existing and drawing board designs such as self-driving cars, robots, a bed that converts into a wheel chair and cell phone apps that keep you connected to your doctors.

Is there a mini bar?

If your travel plans include a visit to Switzerland this summer, you may want to consider a stay at the newest Null Stern hotel located in the Swiss Alps, says the Association of Mature American Citizens. You’ll enjoy the view since your bedroom will be located atop a nearly 7,000 foot high mountain and has no walls or a ceiling. In fact, the “room” comes with a bed, night tables, lamps, a roomy bed and your own butler.

Alas, there is no bathroom unless you count the one located about a ten-minute walk in the crisp Alpine air. But, you can have breakfast in bed served by your valet who will deliver a salami sandwich and coffee each morning. And, it will only cost you about 242 U.S. dollars per night.

‘Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars’

Billionaire technocrat Elon Musk is determined to colonize Mars and is asking Earthlings to join the “big move,” according to the Association of Mature American Citizens. In fact, says AMAC, he estimates that the one-way ticket to the Red Planet on one of his spaceships will cost you about $200,000. One can only wonder how much luggage you’ll be able to take with you.
Musk is CEO of SpaceX, the company that builds the rocket planes.

King Charles III?

It has been reported that the heir to the throne of England, Prince Charles, might take another name when and if he succeeds his Mom, Queen Elizabeth II, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens. It seems that Kings Charles the first and second have pretty sketchy reputations.

The first Charles was executed for treason in 1649 and his son had a reputation as a womanizer. But, Prince Charles may have a long wait before he has to make a decision. His grandmother was 101 years old when she passed away. Her daughter, Queen Elizabeth, is just 91 years of age and is said to be in fine health. Charles is 68.
