SENIOR MOMEN... WHOOPS: SENIORS ALIVE!

'SENIOR MOMENTS' IS NOW 'SENIORS ALIVE'

The July 2015 issue of the GHSS-Newsletter-Formerly-Known-As-Senior-Moments has become 'Seniors Alive.'  You might ask: Why? Why trade a perfectly good and apparently widely recognized moniker for another, arguably better one?  Was it that having a new bus (did I say GHSS has purchased a new bus?) and decided that it needed a new name for its newsletter? Nah... Was it that the editor of Senior Moments was having a .... senior moment herself when she sent the July issue to press? Nah... 

What I understand is that a Hillsborough resident has purchased, or at least registered for a periodical the name 'Senior Moments.'  Hum ... (see me scratching my head) Why would anybody in their right mind want to corner for himself the name of a newsletter that he has nothing to do with? I certainly don't know. I suspect that it was not a goodwill gesture to GHSS.   I believe that this man, Mr Russ Galpin -- the one who the good citizens of Hillsborough elected to be their town moderator -- must  have had some free time and cash... and a burning desire to gain control of the name of the GHSS newsletter.  Maybe somebody should ask him.

Anyway, your July issue of  'Seniors Alive' is available here and in the above 'Seniors Alive' tab.  Happy reading!
