| Yeah I was thinking it sounds a bit dementia related but obviously I only skimmed through because it was a lot for me Does that mean you struggle with reading and writing these days I can read well enough. Self taught <4 years old. Writing has never been good = probable dysgraphia. Can't write fast... |

It can be dementia related, but mine has been crap from at least as long as I was able to get online and test it - 1996. Most likely crap as a child and teenager.

| How did Biden manage to do what he did, which was a lot of good things, when supposed 'curly,tap, tap, cuckoo'(as my late wife would've put it). Many more good things than Trump managed to do?
