George Caruthers had a busy day yesterday. He woke up at 11 a.m. His daughter served him breakfast in bed. He ate a bowl of oatmeal and some fat-free sausage. After eating, George went to visit his friends at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Lodge for most of the afternoon. Before he headed home, George stopped to feed some pigeons at the city park. He made it home in time to have dinner with his daughter then watched some baseball on his small, black-and-white television. When the game was over, he took his medication and went to sleep.
