You Know You’re Getting Old

You Know You’re Getting Old When…

…your sweetie says, “Lets go upstairs and make love” and you answer, “Honey, I can’t do both!”
…your friends compliment you on your new alligator shoes — and you’re barefoot.
…a sexy babe catches your fancy and your pacemaker opens the garage door nearest your car.
…you remember when the Dead Sea was only sick.
…going bra-less pulls all the wrinkles out of your face.
…you don’t care where your spouse goes, just as long as you don’t have to go along.
…when it takes longer to rest than to get tired.
…when you are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police.
…”getting a little action” means “I don’t need to take any fiber today.”
…”getting lucky” means you find your car in the parking lot.
…an “all nighter” means not getting up to urinate!

Finally…

Statistics show that at the age of seventy, there are five women to every man. Isn’t that an ironic time for a guy to get those odds?

Here’s to not getting old too fast!

FAQ: What is with the Amazon Links?

A few of you might have noticed that we’ve started putting links to buy a few items (see the end of this review for an example) in various articles and on the side bar through Amazon.com. The reason for this is Amazon’s Associates program. When you purchase one of the items we link to on Amazon (or the general link on the sidebar) we earn a small percentage of that sale. We are using these funds to help defray the cost of running OOKEE.com and various other sites.

Also because we think you might want some of the items!

We are not expressly affiliated with Amazon.com, nor do we have any exclusive or inclusive relationship with them. The Associates program is more of a mutually beneficial… well, association.

OK! Now back to your regularly scheduled linkage!
