> 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!
