Do we really need researchers to tell us we're happier on weekends?
A newspaper reporter called the author of the study and asked, "Isn't this a tad obvious?" (The researcher tried to defend it.) "It's not as if [this study] stands alone in the annals of "Duh!" research," writes the reporter. (Sacramento...

@the_ass_dentist;
With a handle like that, and soooooo enthusiastic, can't wait to read if RMM even responds.
Lurk away.

Likely very artful stage-makeup,
otherwise I'd say 70 to 80.
How old are the people making the
assumption that this guy is 60?!
15? Give me a break!

1: I also agree that guy's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay past sixty.
Unless he's been hitting the tanning booth since birth.
2: He's dapper, bless him. I need to go shopping.
3: With a pistol and that look on his face, my money is his money. Never piss off old people who are toting.
4: Don't fret, Thomas. RMM likes her suiters.
(Que banjo music)
Even if it's a proctologist standing at her door
With a fist full of flowers from the grocery store.
God love her...

Oh, and a hearty welcome to you, Ass Dentist! I think you'll fit right in.

That Rip Torn sure gets around! LOL

No shuffle board for this dude.

simebody should give the guy a big gold star...imagine growing old in our country??...our society does not take care of our elderly very well at all...maybe his wife needs medical care and or medication.... and after working all of his life ..his retirement has been wiped out by the market..or what other other attrocities that have have happened to people trying to save money for their "golden years"...( thank-you bernnie)...maybe as a society we should wake up!!!!!!now if the illegal aliens get their hands on our social security money (having made no contribution)...expect to see more elderly robin hoodism.....wake up people!!!!!!!!

I'm back from my weekend get-away (ice golfing)- no, my team did not win, we in fact, sucked. However, it was a BLAST!
First of all, I really want to see the line up when they nab this guy and ask for the victims to pick him out. Hahahaha!
Second, I'm flattered that I attract the wackos. Welcome Ass-Dentist, you blend.
And third, I'm longing for that cliff we were missing on Thursday. I would love to help LGL off it! How rude! Banjo music? BANJO MUSIC? (Lizard's going splat!)

Now RMM...No whacking the Lizard.....oh...wait...that sounded bad.....not to mention, not gender appropriate....
