Subject: Women Over 40 - by Andy Rooney

In case you missed it on "60 Minutes", this is what Andy

Rooney thinks about women over 40:

60 Minutes Correspondent Andy Rooney (CBS)

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 multitude 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!

Share this with other fine, fun, fabulous, fancy-free

female friends over 40; or even those who haven't yet reached 40,

because someday they will!

Loved it! Thanks khall

very, very close K,....had a great rainforested mountain property overlooking the "broken nose" of Mt Bartle Frere, just south of Babinda. Brilliant environment but back-breaking farm labour and entrepreneurial work 7 days a week. We probably know some of the same people....
