"oh," he said in all sincerity. "we don't sell walkers here. You have to go to the mobility aids shop next door."

My bank has this club for people who are 50 and over, and who have at least twenty five grand on deposit with them. They have lots of activities, mostly stuff I call "old people stuff".

This includes frequent trips to the casinos in Connecticut. Yeah, that's just what I want to do. :notamused: This, along with trips to look at the mansions in Newport, RI. Huh?
No? How about a narrated bus tour of the finger lakes region of NY?
Thanks, but no thanks.

Miss Kenton, Do I understand correctly? There is an actual TV ad that features a smartly dressed business woman of about 50, and it was for Depends?
Double not amused. :notamused: :notamused:

I feel sorry for the musicians and motorcyclists nearing 50. According to the ads, they all require Flowmax, Viagra and mens Depends.

A friend of mine turned 60 a couple years ago and he decided to take Viagra just to see how it would affect him. So, he and his wife go to the mall and he has an erection that he can't hide when he's in the middle of the mall. He had to go scurrying back to the parking lot to find his car to avoid embarrassment and/or arrest. :)

The media is there for brainwashing. That can be at many levels. Mere suggestion to hard-core political agenda. I find as you get older, HOPEFULLY you figure that out.
I've taken the past few years to watch how men specifically are portrayed. I watch and think "now, if the roles reversed how would people react". If you watch closely, look to see how many times a man is hit by a woman. Look for it. It happens all the time. Now, if it were reversed there would be hell to pay.

Unless "go to the mall" is a euphemism I am not familiar with, taking Viagra and then choosing to go to the mall with your wife may indicate a problem not resolved by ingesting a little blue pill! ;)

Although, some wives may consider Euthanasia should their husbands take them to the mall after taking Viagra.
