“A while back, my wife allowed as how doors didn’t fly open semi-automatically as often as they used to, back in the day.”
Doors still fly open for me, but now young women with children and professional women in suits hurry to hold the door for the tottering gray hair who has trouble with the door’s weight. Are they putting more steel in the new doors? They are awfully heavy. I don’t remember them being that hard to pull when I was twenty.
One gets old, gets wrinkles and looks like every other old woman of any color. Fighting it with botox, facelifts and cosmetics only fills in craters, winding crevasses and the wattles of old age. At the end of the day, cougars are simply old feral cats.
I’m a guy... and it’s starting to bug me that, at about 70, people are doing the “age before beauty” routine at doors, when it isn’t at all necessary.
