Over 55?

Another one for sharing   

 PERKS OF BEING 55 & OVER

 

1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

 

2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

 

3. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

 

4. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

 

5. You can live without sex but not your glasses.

 

6. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

 

7. You no longer think of speed limits as challenge.

 

8. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who

    walks into the room.

 

9. You sing along with elevator music.

 

10. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

 

11. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the

      national weather service.

 

12. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't

      remember them either.
