    Women over 40

    Written by Andy Rooney - CBS 60 Minutes

    As I grow in age, I value women who are over 40 most of all. Here are
    just a few reasons why:

    A woman over 40 will not lay next to you in bed and ask, "What are you
    thinking?" . She doesn't care what you think.

    If a woman over 40 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 40 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 40
    give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.

    Women over 40 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 40 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 40 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 40. They always know.

    A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not
    true of younger women or drag queens.

    Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than
    her younger counterpart.

    Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off that
    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 40 for a multitude of reasons.

    Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart,
    well-coifed hot woman of 40+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow
    pants making a fool of himself with some 18-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. Nowadays 80% of women are
    against marriage - why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an
    entire pig, just to get a little sausage.

    This is going to sound so self serving, but I find younger people--men and women--just not terribly interesting. Which only makes sense--they have not experienced as much, they have little perspective, they are not very worldly. Of course on the other hand they have the joy of firm thighs and their own hair!!;)

    I think one of the secrets of happiness is being comfortable with the age you are, whatever it is. I always am amazed at the May/December couples. I guess some are based on true love and respect, but I suspect the majority are based on economics (he's got the bucks, she's got the tight tush). I am all for money and all for sex, but really, this is not enough to sustain a fulfilling relationship.

    I just read thru the above, God I am becoming a pompous old broad!!
