a couple in their 90's are both having problems remembering things.

during their regular checkup, the doctor tells them that they are both physically ok but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember...

later that night while watching tv, the old man gets up and says 'want anything from the kitchen while i'm there?'

she says 'could you get me a bowl of ice cream please? but don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?'

he replies 'no, i'll remember it dear'

she says 'well, i'd like some strawberries on top of the ice cream, you sure you don't want to write that down?'

he says 'i can remember that, a bowl of ice cream with strawberries on top.'

she says 'i'd also like some whipped cream on top of the strawberries, surely you want me to write that down?'

irritated, he says 'you don't need to write that down, i CAN remember it, ice cream, strawberries with whipped cream on top - i got it for goodness sake'

then he toddles into to the kitchen.

20 minutes later, he returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs...

she stares at the plate for a moment and says 'where's my toast?'
They must have been having issues. Everyone knows strawberries go on top of the whipped cream when you put it on ice cream.

I called an old classmate and asked what he was doing.

He replied that he was working on a project involving "Aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminium and steel under a constrained environment".

I was impressed...

Upon further inquiring, I learned that he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife's supervision
