Women over 30
This was a monologue by Andy Rooney from the CBS show, 60 Minutes
Andy Rooney said:
"As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all.
Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 30 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 30 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 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in whom she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a hoot what you might think about her or what she's doing.
Women over 30 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 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend, because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 30 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 30. They always know. A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 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 30 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of him 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."
LOL ... I particularly like the bit about the sausage...  |

Candy just sent me this one... it needs to be posted too!!! 
GEOGRAPHY OF A WOMAN:
Between 18 and 22 - a woman is like Africa
Half discovered, half wild, naturally beautiful and fertile.
Between 23 and 30 - a woman is like America
Well developed and open to trade, especially for someone with cash.
Between 31 and 35 - a woman is like India
Very hot, relaxed and convinced of her own beauty.
Between 36 and 40 - a woman is like France
Gently aging but still warm, and desirable to visit.
Between 41 and 50 - a woman is like Great Britain
With a glorious and all-conquering past.
Between 51 and 60 - a woman is like Yugoslavia
Lost the war and haunted by past mistakes.
Between 61 and 70 - a woman is like Russia
Wide, with borders that are now un-patrolled.
After 70, she becomes Tibet -
Wildly beautiful, with a mysterious past and the wisdom of the ages. Only those with an adventurous spirit and a thirst for spiritual knowledge visit there.
GEOGRAPHY OF A MAN :
Between 1 and 85, a man is like Iran - ruled by a dick  |

Oh, I really liked these. I "lifted" the Andy Rooney one and emailed it to friends and family. I've had a tough week and these posts really made my day.
Thank You!!!

| I 'lifted' both - hope you don't mind. I showed the second one to my 18 year old son (never too soon to educate them!) - he laughed out loud when he saw the punchline. |
