My cousin Tonya sent me this today, I had to pass it on.   I especially love Andy's first observation, because it is absolutely true.

In case you missed it on 60 Minutes, this is what Andy Rooney thinks
about women over 40 .

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!
