Some Wise Thoughts on Women Over 40! Hooray for the Late Andy Rooney

Andy Rooney wrote:

As I grow in age, I value women who are over forty most of all. Here are just a few reasons why: A woman over forty will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, “What are you thinking?” She doesn’t care what you think.

If a woman over forty doesn’t want to watch the game, she doesn’t sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it’s usually something more interesting.

A woman over forty knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of forty give a hoot what you might think about her or what she’s doing.

Women over forty are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won’t hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it’s like to be unappreciated.

A woman over forty has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn’t trust the guy with other women. Women over forty couldn’t care less if you’re attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won’t betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over forty. They always know.

A woman over forty looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over forty is far sexier than her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest. They’ll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one! You don’t ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over forty for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it’s not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of forty-plus, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some twenty-two-year-old waitress.

Ladies, I apologize.

For all those men who say, “Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free,” here’s an update for you. Now 80 percent of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it’s not worth buying an entire pig, just to get a little sausage.

Animals Are Amazing!!

The  Law Of The Wild says kill ONLY when you are  hungry        Photographer  Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing  pictures on safari in Kenya's Masai Mara  in October last year,  said he was astounded by what  he saw: "These three brothers (cheetahs) have  been living together since they left their mother at  about 18 months old,' he said.  'On the morning we  saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking  quickly but stopping sometimes to play  together.  'At one point, they met a group of impala  who ran away. But one youngster was not quick  enough and the brothers caught it  easily'." These  extraordinary scenes followed. and  then they just walked away without hurting  him.......... Life is  short... forgive quickly,  love truly, laugh uncontrollably...and  never regret anything that made you  smile!

Ten Thoughts to Ponder!!

Number 10 Life is sexually transmitted.

Number 9 Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

Number 8 Men have two emotions :Hungry and Horny. If you see him without an erection, make him a sandwich.

Number 7 Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe years.

Number 6 Some people are like a Slinky-not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs.

Number 5 Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospitals, dying of nothing.

Number 4 All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

Number 3 Why does a slight tax increase cost you $800.00, and a substantial tax cut saves you  $30.00?

Number 2 In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

And The Number 1 ThoughtLife is like a jar of Jalapeno peppers--what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.

- - - and as someone recently  said to me : "Don't worry about old age--it doesn't last that long."

This week left a lot to be desired weather wise, but after all it is December so I really can't complain. Besides I had a quick visit from my youngest who was up from Portland for a few hours! Always fun!  And I dug through my files and enjoyed remembering those better weather days of yore!!

It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

he leads?
