Jerky and cockroaches

Mike sometimes talks when he naps. He didn't used to do this, and it seems to be related to the Parkinson's and the medications.

Some weird stuff can come out of his mouth. Many times he seems to be reliving some story from his old police life. Some times I can only pick out random, muttered words.

This morning is a great example of weird stuff. And maybe someone can tell me if it's a true story or just a really active imagination. Here's the closest I can come to a transcript (I was driving, so I couldn't capture it at the time).

"Last night on the TV news they were talking about preparing for disasters. And there is some jerky that cockroaches really seem to go after. The silicone plastics on some packages they gnaw, eat right through. So you have to find something to store your food stuffs in that the cockroaches can't get into."

Strange. We don't have any jerky (we do have MRE's, believe it or not). And we don't have cockroaches.

So there you go, random thought for the day.
