I have been married 36 years. I took a look at my wife one day and said, "Honey, 36 years ago we had a cheap apartment, no car, no TV, no money, and we slept on a sofa bed, but I went to bed every night with a hot, good looking 18 year old. Now, we have a beautiful house, two nice cars, a king size bed, plenty of money and even a 50" screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 54 year old woman. It seems to me that you aren't holding up your end of things." Well, my wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find myself a hot 18 year old beautiful woman, and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap apartment with no car, no TV, no money, and sleeping on a sofa bed. Aren't older women great? They really know how to solve your mid-life crisis.
