Contradiction in Terms
You say to-may-toe; I say toh-mah-tah. Deal with it.

Today is WORLD JUGGLING Day.

This was sent to me by my friend Katrina, who is so smart, opinionated, and well-informed that she really ought to have a blog of her own. (Hint, hint.) But if you don't understand what this post is doing on my blog, you clearly haven't been paying attention...


Andy Rooney says:
As I grow in age, I value women who are over 30 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:


A woman over 30 will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.


If a woman over 30 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And it's usually something more interesting.


A woman over 30 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of 30 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.


Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.


Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.


Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.


A woman over 30 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women.


Women over 30 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.


Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 30. They always know.


A woman over 30 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens.


Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 30 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.


Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.


Yes, we praise women over 30 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal.


For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of 30+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year-old waitress.


Ladies, I apologize.

Grammar and Punctuation: clever
I just found out that this word means a different thing when applied to a horse than it does when applied to a person. A clever horse is a good-natured one, rather than a smart one.

Nikki Alfar is really not as sexy as El's illustration would have you believe... but she doesn't mind if you think of her that way.
