My husband is retired, and I’m still working. So I answered “Yes.”

As I said on another post — Any woman who tells her age will tell anything!

But only one glass of red wine.

Gilbert & Sullivan’s “Pirates of Penzance.” I saw a summer camp production of it when I was ten and fell in love with it. I still am! I always wanted to play The Pirate King, but for some unknown reason, no one will cast me!

I agree with Marie, but the circumstances would be TOTALLY different, so that really wouldn’t be me, would it?

Any woman who tells her age, will tell anything!

Keep it up

I didn’t vote because I’d like Obama without Hillary.

The ones my first husband told me when he tricked me into marrying him.

Moisturizer. Without it, you might as well give up the rest.

I’ve been fired several times, and been “laid off” twice. Each time, I was crushed. But each time I bounced back and went on to something bigger and better. The last time I was fired from a big corporation was in 1977. I was the only woman in a Product Management position in a very chauvinistic company owned by a foreign conglomerate. I was promoted into the position to fullfill Equal Opportunity regs, but the order from overseas was to make sure I failed. Finally, after a couple of years, I was told I wasn’t “promotable.” I took the year off and finished my MBA (which I had been studying for at night). Then I got a better job at a leading New York Ad Agency (not Wells, Rich, Greene). I left that job for a better position in two years, but five years later was laid off when the agency lost a big account. I went to another ad agency as Vice President at a much higher salary, but was laid off when that agency lost a big account. At that point, I decided to go into business for myself, and completely changed fields (at the age of 52). It is now 21 years later, and my business is thriving, and I couldn’t be happier. I attribute it to luck and hard work, but mostly to a positive attitude.

On the personal side, I think Silda Spitzer had to endure extreme humiliation. I also think she deserves a HUGE settlement. In view of the Spitzer Family wealth, this shouldn’t be too difficult. On the public side, I think the worst thing is the hypocracy of the self righteous “Eliot Ness” who promised a government on the highest moral plane, and prosecuted people for doing exactly what he did.

How about something dressy with sleeves? All the cocktail and evening dresses I see are sleeveless, one-shoulder or strapless. Some come with jackets, but I think that looks matronly and frumpy, regardless of the cost and fabric. When you reach “a certain age,” you won’t permit your arms to be seen in public!

I submitted these names on Thursday — Eleanor Roosevelt, Joan of Arc, Marie Curie and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Why would anyone select Britney Spears????
