THE news that 51 percent of all women live without a spouse might be enough to make you invest in cat futures. But consider, too, the flip side: about half of all men find themselves in the same situation.

Not necessarily, a very large number of those men are simply dead.

Glad you brought that up. I know many women near my mother over the age of 80 that are widowed. Plus several women younger that husband died early. Wonder what percentage of widows make up their numbers?

If I were still married, I would want to be dead!
