Title: Women over 40
Post by Sandy_C on Apr 7^th, 2006, 8:11am

This is for all you women 40 years and over.... and for those who are turning 40, and for those who are scared of moving into their 40's... AND for guys who are scared of girls over 40!!!!...This was written by Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes.

Andy Rooney says:

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 never wake you in the middle of the night to 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 wha t 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 young er 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.

Once you get pa st 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 of 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 not a regular guy. He's been on TV for 50 yrs or so (at least he looks 70), he does the last few minutes of 60 Minutes every week. I watch the end of the show just to catch his clip, it's usually funny but true what he says. You probably don't see him in Mozambique, do you?

Sandy: I missed this one. When was it aired?

Only sorry it has taken me 26 years of marriage to fully appreciate half of what Rooney says. (Don't anyone dare tell my wife I said that, you women are impossible enough to live with!)

We sure are! ;)

And, sorry, I don't know when it was aired. A friend of mine e-mailed it to me, but maybe we can do a little research and find out.

Sure women over 40 are sexy to Andy Rooney - HE'S SOMETHING LIKE 90 YEARS OLD! -- they look like teenagers to him. Im' sure they must seem like a blast to him compared to the old gals he's around at the home.

;;D ;;D ;;D

Just kiddin' y'all.

There's a bingo

Bingo, full card.

They've watched the reruns for years.

Thanks Sandy.

My 40's were the very best years of my life thus far. I think my hubby would agree with everything Andy said - and my hubby isn't 90+ years old (yet).

Well, if Andy Rooney didn't write it - I DON'T CARE!

Someone did write it. Someone who appreciates women over 40, and I thought it was a beautiful tribute.

So there! NA na na na na >:( ;)
