I'm the same age and older then some of these women and I don't have half the wrinkles they have and they've HAD surgery. Aye yi yi! The pressure to be young in this country is out of control.

Originally Posted By hightp Deb, that was a Thanksgiving episode of WKRP in Cinicinnati. Herb was giving live turkeys away, from a helecoptor, and he thought they could fly...Les Nessman reporting.

Originally Posted By wonderingalice ^^Oh, noooooo! *wink wink, nudge nudge* That's all due to her wonderful facial products... *wink wink, nudge nudge*... Not plastic surgery! *wink wink, nudge nudge* Just ask her ex-husband... The plastic surgeon! *wink wink, nudge nudge* Hee hee hee hee...
