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!
Andy Rooney is a really smart guy!
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
