BOARD MEMBER HIGHLIGHT Grace Belkin Words Sometimes those pesky little words escape me. Me thinks it has something to do with age or aging or getting old or advancing in years. But, I have another theory (I won't even begin to allude to the internet for this theory) but, I have it on good authority that coloring one's hair affects brain matter. Certainly, that makes sense. If we are all coming here from different places but we are all the same, then I must warn you (for those so inclined) stay away from Publix (last aisle near the pharmacy), Winn Dixie (aisle #12 on the left). Stay away from L'Oreal, Garnier Nutrisse, Revlon. You can see where this is going, so beware. I am convinced this is a conspiracy. How else would one explain losing glasses, keys, words. I just want to keep my Beth El family safe from word drainage.
