With time, women gain weight because we accumulate so much information and
wisdom in our heads that when there

is no more room, it distributes out
to the rest of our bodies. So we aren't

heavy, we are enormously cultured,
educated and happy.

Beginning today, when I look at my butt
in the mirror I will think,
“Good grief, look how smart I am!”

Must be where “Smart Ass” came from!

 A man was dining alone in a fancy restaurant and there was a 
gorgeous redhead sitting at the next table..He had been checking 
her out since he sat down, but lacked the nerve to talk with her. 

Suddenly she sneezed, and her glass eye came flying out of its socket towards the man. He reflexively reached out, grabbed it out of the air, and handed it back.
 

'Oh my, I am so sorry,' the woman said, as she popped her eye back in place. 'Let me buy your dinner to make it up to you.'
 

They enjoyed a wonderful dinner together, and afterwards they went to the theatre followed by drinks... They talked, they laughed, she shared her deepest dreams and he shared his. She listened to him with interest.
 

After paying for everything, she asked him if he would like to come to her place for a nightcap and stay for breakfast. They had a wonderful, wonderful time.
 

The next morning, she cooked a gourmet meal with all the trimmings. The guy was amazed. Everything had been so incredible!
 

'You know,' he said, 'you are the perfect woman.. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?'
 

'No,' she replies. ..... ..... 




Wait for it ...  ............ 





It's coming  .......  ..... 




The suspense is killing you, isn't it?






She said ...  .....
: 

'You just happened to catch my eye.' 


(Oh shut up, and just forward it!)

 Beverly is 90 years old. She's played golf every day since her
retirement 25 years ago.  One day she arrives home looking sad.

"That's it,"she tells her husband. "I'm giving up golf. My eyesight
has become so bad that once I hit the ball I can't see where it went."

Her husband makes her a cup of tea, and says, "Why don't
you take me with you and give it one more try."

"That's no good" sighs Beverly , "you're a hundred and three. You can't help."

"I may be a hundred and three", says Gus,
 "but my eyesight is perfect."

So the next day Beverly heads off to the golf course
with her husband, Gus. She tees up, takes a mighty
swing and squints down the fairway.

She turns to the husband and says, "Did you see the ball?"

"Of course I did!" replied Gus. "I have perfect eyesight".

"Where did it go?" says Beverly .

"I don't remember."

A young Vancouver woman was so depressed that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the ocean. However, just before she could throw herself from the docks, a handsome young man stopped her.
"You have so much to live for..." said the man. "I'm a sailor, and we are off to Italy tomorrow. I can stow you away on my ship. I'll take care of you,bring you food every day, and keep you happy."

With nothing to lose, combined with the fact that she had always wanted to go to Italy , the woman accepted. That night the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a small but comfortable compartment in the hold. From then on, every night he would bring her three sandwiches, a bottle of red wine, and makes sweet passionate love to
her until dawn...
Three weeks later, she was discovered by the captain during a routine inspection.
"What are you doing here?", asked the captain.
"I have an arrangement with one of the crew," she replied. "He brings me food and I get a free trip to Italy ."
"I see", the captain says.
Her conscience got the best of her and she added, "Plus, he's screwing me..."
"He certainly is," replied the captain. "This is the Ferry to Nanaimo".
