At the root of every gray hair, there is a dead brain cell. 

Someone had to remind me, 
So I'm reminding you, too. 
Don't laugh.... It is all true! 

Perks of reaching 60 
Or being over 70 
And heading towards 
80 or beyond! 

1. 
Kidnappers are not very 
interested in you. 

2. 
In a hostage situation, 
you are likely to be released first. 

3. 
No one expects you to run -- 
anywhere. 

4. 
People call at 9 PM (or 9 AM) and ask, 
'Did I wake you?' 

5. 
People no longer view you as a 
hypochondriac. 

6. 
There is nothing left 
to learn the hard way. 

7. 
Things you buy now will 
never wear out. 

8. 
You can eat 
supper at 4 PM. 

9. 

You can live without a lot of things 
but not your glasses. 

10. 
You get into heated arguments 
about pension plans. 

11. 
You no longer think of speed limits 
as a challenge. 

12. 
You quit trying to hold 
your stomach in no matter who walks 
into the room. 

13. 
You sing along 
with elevator music. 

14. 
Your eyes won't get 
much worse. 

15. 
Your investment in health insurance 
is finally beginning to pay off. 

16. 
Your joints are more accurate meteorologists 
than the national weather service. 

17. 
Your secrets are safe with your friends 
because they can't remember them either. 

18. 
Your supply of brain cells is finally down to 
a manageable size. 

19. 
You can't remember 
who sent you this list. 

And you notice these are all 
in big print 
for your convenience. 

Forward this to everyone 
You can remember 
Right now! 

AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING: 

Never, NEVER, NEVER , 
Under any circumstances, 
Take a sleeping pill, and a laxative on 
The same night!
