<DIV><SPAN class=blacktextnb10><FONT face=verdana size=2>This was written by
Andy Rooney from CBS 60 Minutes.<BR>Andy Rooney says:<BR><BR>As I grow in age, I
value women who are over 30<BR>most of all. Here are just a few reasons
why:<BR><BR>A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle<BR>of the night to
ask, "What are you thinking?"<BR>She doesn't care what you think.<BR><BR>If a
woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game,<BR>she doesn't sit around whining
about it.<BR>She does something she wants to do.<BR>And, it's usually something
more interesting.<BR><BR>A woman over 30 knows herself well enough<BR>to be
assured in who she is, what she is,<BR>what she wants and from whom.<BR>Few
women past the age of 30 give a damn<BR>what you might think about her or what
she's doing.<BR><BR>Women over 30 are dignified.<BR>They seldom have a screaming
match with you<BR>at the opera or in the middle of an expensive
restaurant.<BR>Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to
shoot<BR>you, if they think they can get away with it.<BR><BR>Older women are
generous with praise, often undeserved.<BR>They know what it's like to be
unappreciated.<BR><BR>A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce<BR>you
to her women friends. A younger woman with a man<BR>will often ignore even her
best friend because she<BR>doesn't trust the guy with other women.<BR><BR>Women
over 30 couldn't care less<BR>if you're attracted to her friends because she
knows<BR>her friends won't betray her.<BR><BR>Women get psychic as they age. You
never have to<BR>confess your sins to a woman over 30.<BR>They always
know.<BR><BR>A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red<BR>lipstick. This is
not true of younger women.<BR>Once you get past a wrinkle or two,a woman
over<BR>30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.<BR><BR>Older women are
forthright and honest. They'll<BR>tell you right off if you are a jerk if you
are<BR>acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder<BR>where you stand with
her.<BR><BR>Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of<BR>reasons.
Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal.<BR>For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed
hot woman<BR>of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow<BR>pants making a
fool of his 30+ self<BR>with some 22-year-old waitress.<BR><BR>Ladies, I
apologize. For all those men who say,<BR>"Why buy the cow when you can get the
milk for<BR>free", here is an update for you.<BR><BR>Nowadays 80% of women are
against marriage, why?<BR>Because women realize it's not worth buying
an<BR>entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.</FONT></SPAN><FONT
