Old Folks!
Many of us "Old Folks" (those over 40, WAY over 40 or hovering
Near 40) are quite confused about how we should present
ourselves.

We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and
whether or not we are correct as we try to be nice and conform
to the fashions that the designers in NYC, California, and/or
Paris inflict upon the world.

So I made a sincere study of the situation and here are the
results.

I don't want to burst your bubble, but despite what you may have
seen on the streets, the following combinations
DO NOT go
together and thus Should be avoided:



 1.  A nose ring and bifocals
  2.  Spiked hair and bald spots
  3.  A pierced tongue and dentures
  4.  Miniskirts and support hose
  5.  Ankle bracelets and corn pads
  6.  Speedo's and cellulite
  7.  A belly button ring and a gall bladder
surgery scar
  8.  Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart
monitor
  9.  Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge
  10.  Bikinis and liver spots
  11.  Short shorts and varicose veins
  12.  In-line skates and a walker
  13.  Thongs and Depends

Please keep these basic guidelines foremost in your mind when you
shop.
