Some day you will get hold of one of those pre-1980 models (timeslid to
your generation). You'll be kicking your ass for all you missed. Then
there's pre-1970.

Remember, you don't know what you don't know until you know it.

One of the early treats after I moved to Florida was to go to an
Oktoberfest dinner and dance at a nice country club. Retiree area, I
was the youngest (50) person there. Lots of good German food, then
dancing to a German band. Many of the dancers were 80's and 90's, and
you could tell there was (still) a lot going on, just in the way they
looked at each other. So cool...

A neighbor who doesn't like me because I asked her to keep her dog off
my patio mentioned that I was an "old lady"...she was 35. I haven't had
my wrinkles (or anything else) worked on...she obviously had. Boob jobs
just sometimes shout it out...as many observers enjoy :o)

Yeah, any of those on the list would be so grateful to have me! When they
come begging, I may give in.

First, "look at the purse" (The J. Geils Band - Ladies Invited), and
then decide. You could get rich.
