A big shout out to us older ladies!!!

[puddicat]

Every magazine these days are geared to younger women they have the money i suppose, but what about us!our money was good enough at one time, i suppose i am quite tight when it comes to spending on cosmetics or clothes and i resent having to pay a arm and a leg for a handbag! but women of today will pay loads for a load of old cobblers, its the old adage mutton dress as lambs, we want to look fashionable whatever size and we want value for money!!!!!

Thought you might like this, Puddicat! Came in to my mail today:

From 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!
