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!

Hooray!!!!! I like his way of thinking, don't you?

Well, I am off to Goodwill to see what old stuff people have dropped off since they got new stuff for Christmas and have to make room for it. The manager told me they get 400-500 donations a day during this time of year. Thank goodness for Christmas! All that is old at goodwill is new to me!!

Somebody PLEASE read my poor little blog. At least I am getting in typing and spelling experience. HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my fellow bloggers!!!

STOP - you don't need anything from Goodwill. Here's the new rule...for every item you buy at Goodwill, you must get rid of 20 items that you now have!!!

Andy Rooney is right. Women over 40 do tell it like it is!!!

You know I love you AND I "check" on you two or three times a day.

I come over from Libby's blog after seeing your comment. Your name caught my eye. The dog my parents recently lost was a border collie mix named Sassy. So when I saw Sassy Dog, I thought of her. I was very moved when I read your earlier post getting your tree and the delivery of the box of food. That was awesome. It was nice meeting you. Hope you come to visit me too.
