Bring on old age!!! At 85 years of age, Morris married Lou Anne, a lovely 25-year-old.
Since her new husband is so old, Lou Anne decides that after their wedding, she and Morris should have separate bedrooms, because she is concerned that her new but aged husband may over-exert himself if they spend the entire night together.After the wedding festivities Lou Anne prepares herself for bed and the expected knock on the door. Sure enough the knock comes, the door opens and there is Morris, her 85-year-old groom ready for action.
They unite as one. All goes well, Morris takes leave of his bride, and she prepares to go to sleep.After a few minutes, Lou Anne hears another knock on her bedroom it's Morris. Again, he is ready for more action. Somewhat surprised, Lou Anne consents for more coupling.
When the newly-weds are done, Morris kisses his bride, bids her a fond goodnight and leaves. She is set to go to sleep again, but, aha, you guessed it - Morris is back again, rapping on the door, and is as fresh as a 25-year-old, ready for more action.
Once again they enjoy each other. But as Morris gets set to leave again, his young bride says to him, "I am thoroughly impressed that at your age you can perform so well and so often. I have been with guys less than a third of your age who were only good once. You are truly a great lover, Morris."
Morris, somewhat embarrassed, turns to Lou Anne and says, "You mean I was here already?"

THE AFTERLIFE

A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other of the afterlife. The woman's biggest fear was that there was no heaven. After a long life, the husband was the first to go and true to his word, he made contact. "Mary... Mary.... "

"Is that you Fred?"

"Yes, I have come back like we agreed."

"What is it like?"

"Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex, I have breakfast, I have sex, I bathe in the sun, then I have sex-twice, I have lunch, then sex pretty much all afternoon-supper-then sex till late at night, sleep then start all over again."

"Oh Fred you surely must be in heaven."

"Hell no, I'm a rabbit in Kansas."

RELATIONSHIPS:

When a relationship ends, a woman will cry and pour her heart out to her girlfriends, and she will write a poem titled "All Men Are Idiots". Then she will get on with her life. A man has a little more trouble letting go. Six months after the break-up, at 3:00 a.m. on a Saturday night, he will call and say, "I just wanted to let you know you ruined my life, and I'll never forgive you, and I hate you, and you're a total floozy. But I want you to know that there's always a chance for us." This is known as the "I Hate You / I Love You" drunken phone call, and 99% of all men have made at least once. There are community colleges that offer courses to help men get over this need.

SEX:

Women prefer 30-40 minutes of foreplay. Men prefer 30-40 seconds of foreplay. Men consider driving back to her place as part of the foreplay.

MATURITY:

Women mature much faster than men. Most 17-year old females can function as adults.
5 hours ago - 3 days left to answer.
Additional Details
5 hours ago

Most 17-year old males are still trading baseball cards and giving each other wedgies after gym class. This is why high school romances rarely work out.

MAGAZINES:

Men's magazines often feature pictures of naked women. Women's magazines also feature pictures of naked women. This is because the female body is a beautiful work of art, while the male body is lumpy and hairy and should not be seen by the light of day. Men are turned on at the sight of a naked woman's body. Most naked men elicit laughter from women.

HANDWRITING:

To their credit, men do not decorate their penmanship. They just chicken-scratch. Women use scented, colored stationery and they dot their "i's" with circles and hearts. Women use ridiculously large loops in their "p's" and "g's". It is a royal pain to read a note from a woman. Even when she's dumping you, she'll put a smiley face at the end of the note!!!

One night, a police officer was stalking out a particularly
rowdy bar for possible violations of the driving-under-the-
influence laws. At closing time, he saw a fellow stumble
out
of the bar, trip on the curb, and try his keys on five
different cars before he found his. Then, sat in the front
seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes.
Everyone
left the bar and drove off. Finally, he started his engine
and
began to pull away.




The police officer was waiting for him. He stopped the driver,
read him his rights and administered the Breathalyzer
test. The
results showed a reading of 0.0. The puzzled officer demanded
to know how that could be. The driver replied, "Tonight,
I'm
the Designated Decoy."

John was fixing a door and he found that he needed a new hinge,
so he sent Mary to the hardware store. At the hardware
store Mary saw a beautiful teapot on a top shelf while
she was waiting for Bob to finish waiting on a customer.
When Bob was finished, Mary asked how much for
the teapot? Bob replied "That's silver and
it costs £100!"




"My goodness, that sure is a lotta money!" Mary
exclaimed. She then proceeded to describe the hinge
that John had sent her to buy, and Bob went to the backroom
to find a hinge. From the backroom Bob yelled "Mary
, you wanna screw for that hinge?' To which Mary
replied, "No, but I will for the teapot."

when a cute little Yamster Angel appeared before me and said "Chill out Gran, for I bring you good tidings. As long as you stay on line with Q and A you will not die. Your right hand may turn into an arthritic claw requiring drugs and surgery, but you will not die!" My question is: should I believe him or not? After all, the Questions just keep coming, and he WAS an Angel sent by Yahoo. But what type of Angel, I wonder? Could this be some sort of fiendish trick to keep me chained to my pc? If so, for what purpose, I ask you?

Are you an edge or a middle person?
I think someone should come up with a way to match middle people with end people so we could always have the pieces we like.
Also Nuts or no nuts? On top or baked in?
Personally edges only (we fight over corners), Nuts, baked in.

What is an average meal for two? Cost?
We have a local Italian place, a barbecue chain that averages 10-12 bucks per person. Steak, japanese etc are about 16-20 per person. I think quite often we use to dina at home for a week for the price of this meal.

A guy walks into a bar and rudely demands a shot of 12-yr old scotch.

The bartender thinks "this guy doesn't know the difference," so he pours a shot of 2-year old scotch.

The patron takes one sip and spits it out. He promptly hollers at the bartender I said 12-year old scotch, you bozo!"

Still unimpressed the bartender pours some 6-year old scotch.
The patron takes a sip...same reaction.

But the bartender still doesn't believe the patron knows the difference. So he pours a shot of 10-year old scotch. Again, same reaction from the patron.

Finally, the bartender is convinced. He pours the patron a glass of 12-year-old scotch. The patron takes a sip and is most satisfied.

All the while this has been going on, a drunk at the end of the bar has been watching.

He slides a shot glass down the bar to the patron and drunkedly says:
"Shay mishter, tashte this!" The patron obliges...he promptly spits it out.

"That tastes like pee!," he shoots back at the drunk.

The drunk replies: "It ish. Now how old am I?"

I live in Central Florida and have not bought a winter coat for years. I expect to be traveling to colder climates this winter and will need a warm coat. I'll need something that I can wear in a casual business setting and also working and walking outside for short periods. Do you have any suggestions about materials, styles, brands, etc?

This weekend I'll be sweeping the acorns off my front sidewalk, scrubbing the chairs and tables on my front porch and patio, putting my fall decorations away, and taking down the containters with my Advent and Christmas decorations.

I remember when I was kid that the adults would do their fall and spring cleaning, put up storm windows, put on snow tires. My mom is still far more regimented than I am.

What chores do you do when the seasons change?
