The Perks Of Being Old
The Perks of Being Over 60
• Kidnappers aren’t interested in you
• In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first
• No one expects you to run - anywhere
• People call you at 9:00 pm and ask, “ Did I wake you??”
• People no longer view you as a hypochondriac
• There is nothing left to learn the hard way
• Things you buy won’t wear out
• You can eat supper at 4:00 pm
• You can live without sex but not your glasses
• You get in to heated arguments about pension plans
• You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge
• You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks in to the room
• You sing along with elevator music
• Your eyes can’t get much worse
• Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off
• Your joints are far more accurate meteorologist than the national weather service
• Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can’t remember them either
• Your supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size
• You can’t remember who sent you thisD3 Metropolis Bonatti Grey-Alpaca Leather-adaptive headlights-fridge-EGR blanking kit-Harmen Karden-Cruise-4x4 info enabled-Tinted Windows-Heated F&R Seats-Rosen rear Entertainment-LED'S everywhere -Smoked Side Repeaters-Rear Aircon-Vredestein Wintrac 4 Extreme-Puddle and Footwell Lamps-Stainless Steel Side Protection Tubes- NEW ASHTRAY ( thanks to dsd1036 )
