I can't remember how long it took, but about two minutes.

The first time I did it was about 2 minutes but there was a little piece missing and I didn't know if it was supposed to be missing or not. I guess it was hiding behind a larger piece.

I tried it again later and it only took about one minute and all the pieces were there.

yes, about 2 min....the wife about 4(ha!)...it was interesting. I spread all the pieces out then assembled. She started right in assembling, piling them on top of each other...mad me nuts

I am very sensitive to the condition of Alzheimer's and I don't mean to offend anyone. Currently I am watching my father slip into the clutches of this horendous disease and I don't find any of it humorous or glib. (Not saying any of you guys do! Brin, tests like that are a great tool to help people seek early treatment)

Guess I am just overly sensitive as I just found out from my mother that dad is going on hospice. Sorry for the "mini" rant.

It for sure is not 'funny" but there are such things as "whistling around a graveyard. I made a sorta joke in my reply.

My situation is watching my wife of over 40 years slipping away and wondering just what I can do. I do not have 'care' insurance and the cost of nursing homes is outrageous. I have a social working coming to go over finances to see what solutions are possible. It is an immediate need but probably within the year.

My advice if noting changes in the health insurance field is to get the insurance. Of course from what I am reading recently the rates are jumping up to the point noone can really affort them so 'stuck between a rock and a hard place' seems to apply.

Hey...Motor...I am taking up for your wife...I did the same thing she did...My wife did the same you did...give me a break..there were no instructions...so it took me about 4 min too . I started right in assembling, no directions to tell you that you could drag the pieces off to the side...but we still got 'er done...:laughing:

Now ....the second time does not count...you had practice...If I do it a 2nd time it will probably take 10 seconds....
