That's great!!! There's something to be said for older women, eh?

Now I can still remember where I live, but "you can't get there from here" may be just a few years away.

It's reassuring to know that I still have a chance at a 42 year old woman. I might have to move to Oz, though. I'm getting the feeling that the women are a bit fussier here in the US.

At age 75 I dont know if I care what they wont.

Yup Bracer I agree...And you posted this twice, if that helps any...

Bracer!!! you crack me UP!!!

Good one Vinnnnny!

yip older woman are a fine thing. at least I think they are Ive been married to a younger 1 for so long my memory is dimming.

They say the key to always looking young is to hang out with people that are older than you. Thus, Elvis, you will always be the old man.

Wimmin's....pfft (Suz excluded of course). I'm a confirmed bachelor.

You have a great women!! If I walked into the house with that harvest, I wouldn't be on the most "wanted" list. The kitchen and dinner table would be all mine!

Are the possoms for pie?

nah slim they are all for dog tucker to fatten our pampered pooches as the dog roll we feed them on doesnt do much for them and some decent meat they can put a foot on has to be a good change.

This post is absolutely funny and also at some level quite true also, Vince. But after reading this post I can't able to stop my laugh up till now.
