THE BODY MAY GO, BUT THE LAUGHTER IS HERE TO STAY!Yes, it's true. There's no fountain of youth -- no pool of water that will grant us sharper memories or tighter skin. But even if there were such a place, we wouldn't be be able to get near it, says Martha Bolton. Parking would be horrendous. Plus, who really wants a world in which no one grows old?Martha's attitude is that when you can't stop the crow's-feet from walking all over your face, it's time to laugh about it. And that's her goal in this humorous yet insightful book on life after forty. After all, aging has its benefits: -- MEMORY LOSS -- think of all the new cars you get to drive home-- HOT FLASHES -- keeps the heating bill down-- AGE SPOTS -- someday they might connect and look like a tan-- EXERCISE -- climbing stairs qualities as a complete aerobics workoutSo don't let all those birthdays get you down. The longer you live, the more there is to laugh about!… (plus d'informations)

Fun collection of short musings on the foibles of getting older. ( )

"Yes it's true. There is no fountain of youth - no pool of water that will grant us sharper memories or tighter skin." Thus begins Martha Bolton's laughable, lovable little book on life after forty. Those of us that are there can easily see something of ourselves in most any chapter of this book...those under 40... well you'll know what to expect sooner than you think.

Such chapters as "Gravy is Not A Food Group", "And He Huffed and He Puffed", "Thanks for The Memory..Loss", and "A Hairy Experience", will keep you laughing and turning the pages and realizing that this woman just might know what she's talking about. "You know you're getting old when "getting in the grove" means your walker is stuck in a crack in the sidewalk."

5 stars for a dlightful 185 pages of fun. ( )
