> As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a
> few reasons why:
>
> A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night 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 more interesting.
>
> 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.
>
> Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to
> a woman over 40.
>
> 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 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 40 for a multitu de of reasons.
> Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-
> coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow
> pants making a fool of himself with some 22-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!
>
> Andy Rooney is a really smart guy!
