Oh come on, how would you know? Sounds like your vision is probably going too.







Just teasing you.

And my memor....what were we talking about again?

That explains everything. Way too many gray hairs in Dallas driving cars meant for a 25 year old!

I think that it's silly to say someone has a midlife crisis if they buy a convertible or motorcycle when they are middle aged.

That's the time when people actually have disposable money to splurge on those items.

Men would worry about hair loss because their girlfriends and wives could leave them very easily for another man and the man would have a harder time replacing them. What is in between a woman's legs is in more demand than what's between a man's legs. What is between a woman's legs stimulates the economy. The purchase of luxury cars are often done to impress women, particularly to attract new ones.

Really?

1.) Walking around corners in the office to come face to face with a pissed-off middle aged man hissing down the phone "NO, SHE CAN'T HAVE THE HOUSE!" or "$2000 a month child support, is she out of her mind?"

2.) Seeing men trade in older sedans/minivans for motorcycles or sports cars.

3.) Seeing a man transition from a normal, doughy-around-the-middle 40-something to an earringed, tattooed, strutting 50-something.

Etc.

I mean, really. It writes itself. I can't believe you even asked.

Well, true, I *AM* trying to become less doughy...

I only asked because I thought you'd share some good details, which you have. Regarding Item #1, I'm impressed that people actually use phones for the original purpose of voice communication. I prefer phone calls to texts myself, but I find myself texting more because so many other people are text preferrers.

Doughy around the middle is not good at any age.

Hehe, I don't mean to be insulting; we all get more doughy the older we get. Some men (and ladies) stay doughy no matter what they do. I'm looking at YOU, genetics!
