THIS 90-year-old senior has just returned to my homeland. At 7:30 pm on Monday October 21, I searched the television channels for Jeopardy which exercise I maintain is chiefly responsible for my being able to pen you this letter; and is also responsible for my not suffering from Dementia or Alzheimer. 

Management of Channel Seven, I know you love this dear land, Guyana, as much or more than this senior. I appeal to you to institute with regularity the Jeopardy programme to ensure that citizens of this dear land maintain a high level of knowledge and maybe intelligence through the exercise. This senior will be happy to know that by my daily participation, I am assured that Dementia and Alzheimer will never happen to me.
Mr. Editor, on my arrival at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA) on Saturday last, my wheelchair was added to a line of wheelchairs. I was number eight in line. I had an urgent need to use the restroom – can you imagine the turmoil in my mind? At the JFK Airport wheelchair occupants are taken to a serving immigration officer to be served immediately after the one being served on our arrival there. I will be happy if consideration is given to us who are incapacitated in one way or the other. Do be kind to us seniors; we once gave yeoman service; help us to maintain our dignity by adopting a more humane system.
