www.nextavenue.org
Willadene Zedan, 85, leaves college this weekend with better grades, and a better job prospect, than many of her young classmates.
The beauty of old hands is created by hard work.
@firefly,
After the check up in the doctor´s office the doctor was very impressed by the old man´s health, hearing and eyes also blood pressure.
The doctor asked the old man if he could ask him a question out of private curiousity.
Of course he could and the question was:"Do you still look at the young and attractive women?
Oh sure" said the old man"........but I have forgotten why"
Will Rogers:
ABOUT GROWING OLDER............
First, Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
Second, The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for
Third, Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.
Fourth, When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.
Fifth, You know you are getting old when every thing either dries up or leaks.
Sixth, I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.
Seventh, One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.
Eighth, One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.
Ninth, Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
Tenth, Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.
And finally, If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.
@edgarblythe,
I wish you'd re-post that on my Old Farts thread, Edgar. Vintage Will Rogers.
