I think that is where some of my sense of unhappy TVers comes from. But then, I think, maybe the frown or scowl is really more about aging and sagging skin/muscles. Or maybe a particular person has a lot of chronic pain, or is alone after a spouse passed away. I do notice the frequent ambulance runs; I joke about the 5 oclock early bird dinner special ambulance run, a frequent reminder of our mortality. Or how about the Monday morning ambulance siren signaling another heart attack. The all too frequent hospitalization of an acquaintance. Death is in the air. One cannot escape the constant reminders of impending illness and death. But I guess that is common to all 55+ retirement developments. I think I'm going back to bed; I don't feel very good.
