PERKS OF BEING OVER 60

If you are not over 60, this is what you have to look forward to.

1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

3. No one expects you to run--anywhere.

4. People call at 9 PM and ask, " Did I wake you ???? "

5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

6. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

7. Things you buy now won't wear out.

8. You can eat dinner at 4 PM.

9. You can probably live without sex but not without your glasses.

10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

11. You no longer think of speed limits as challenge.

12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.

13. You sing along with elevator music.

14. Your eyes won't get much worse.

15. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.

17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

18 Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.

19. You can't remember who sent you this list......

Shocked

Will you youngun's stop bickering.
Another good thing is, that the recoil does't rattle your teeth any more, because you forgot they are still in the glass of water at home!!!!

Here is a very bad manored question, but I'm good for them...

keetoowah...Do women give up their age?

What the heck...Everyone else is curious too. I'm at that age where I don't mind the consiquences and ask...

64?? Did I forget again 1895ss? He's older then me, he should know. Very Happy

Besides...I thought you went to work. What happened? Here we said our "good-bys" and you're still here... Confused
