Well, I am glad to read what I already guessed. Coffee will not make you die before you time. It’s a good thing too, because I find that coffee is about the only “bad habit” of my youth that I have not given up, and it just seems to cruel to have to do that. Oh, that and hot showers. I doctor told me my skin would not get so dry if I gave up steamy showers. Ugh. I kept the coffee and hot showers. I mean, really….

The article is on Yahoo Health– No higher death risk from up to 6 cups of coffee a day! Do I drink 6? Well, I probably stop after 3, but I have to admit I add a couple of diet colas later (which may be worse. oy).

Anyway, I hope the rest of the coffee drinkers out there are happy now. I know I am certainly relieved. And you know that wonderful smell of fresh brewed coffee in the morning? Now they are saving it relieves stress! Well, I knew it made me happy.

So coffee is good. But I still have to wonder about those $6 fancy coffee drinks you guys are chugging down on the way to work. C’mon a cup of decent coffee anywhere else is $1.50 and they will give you some cream/milk/skim milk and your sweetener dujour. If you ask, they will even give you some cinamon. Go ahead and ask.

Walk down the aisle at any drug store, and see a dozen wrinkle creams? But do they work? Well scientic studies do back up the claims for Vitamin A (Retinol) application to the skin. Wrinkles and brown spots, associated with aging, do shop up earlier on skin that gets a lot of sun exposure.

Vitamin A And Other Natural Skin Support

Trial Offer

“Topical retinol improves fine wrinkles associated with natural aging,” the authors conclude. “Significant induction of glycosaminoglycan, which is known to retain substantial water, and increased collagen production are most likely responsible for wrinkle effacement [reduction]. With greater skin matrix synthesis [production of compounds that form new skin], retinol-treated aged skin is more likely to withstand skin injury and ulcer formation along with improved appearance.”

The research is described in the May issue of Archives of Dermatology, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. (Arch Dermatol. 2007;143:606-612)

Skin care products can be pricy, but we have found a Vitamin A Cream Trial Offer!

Final expense insurance is designed to provide cash for that awful and stressful time when a loved one passes away. It is a fact that the average funeral costs at least $8,000 in the US, and costs can run far over that in some areas. Furthermore, the funeral is usually not the whole cost associated with a loved one passing on. Sometimes family needs to travel, miss time at work, settle debts, and even, transport the body. Many of these costs, including the funeral, need to be paid right away. Along with all of the other stress at this time, nobody wants to worry about coming up with tens of thousands of dollars.

Final Expense Insurance For Seniors can be an affordable way to plan for life’s end. Because the amount of coverage is fairly low, compared to other types of life insurance, rates are usually affordable. Besides, since a final expense insurance policy is actually a form of whole life insurance — see whole life insurance explained – the policy builds a cash value that can be borrowed against or cashed in or even, paid up!

If you have considered a final expense policy for yourself, or even for your parents, you may want to compare final expense insurance rates.  

If you think your financial planning goes beyond a final expense policy’s coverage of $2,500 to $25,000, you can still find great life insurance coverage over age 50. Life insurane is not just to cover mortgages or young families, but also to transfer estates in a very tax advantaged way. Older insurance applicants should check out Senior Life Insurance with No Medical Exam.

If you were born in 1955, entered school that year, or were not quite a twinkle in your daddy’s eye, you should get a kick out of some quotes we found from that year. I cannot quite claim to remember 1955, but maybe some of you can. I actually got these comments in an email, but I though the readers of over50Web.net would enjoy it. So here we go!

Comments From 1955:

‘I’ll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, it’s going to be impossible to buy a week’s groceries for $20.00.’

‘Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won’t be long before $2, 000.00 will only buy a used one.’

‘If cigarettes keep going up in price, I’m going to quit. A quarter a pack is
ridiculous.

‘Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just to mail a letter?’

‘If they raise the minimum wage to $1.00, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store.’

‘When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 29 cents a gallon. Guess we’d be better off leaving the car in the garage.’

‘Kids today are impossible. Those duck tail hair cuts make it impossible to stay groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as
long as the girls.’

‘I’m afraid to send my kids to the movies any more. Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying DAMN in GONE WITH THE WIND , it seems every new movie has either HELL or DAMN in it.’

‘I read the other day where some scientist thinks it’s possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas .’

‘Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn’t surprise me if someday they’ll be making more than the President.’

‘I never thought I’d see the day all our kitchen appliances would be
electric. They are even making electric typewriters now.’

‘It’s too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married women are having to work to make ends meet.’

‘It won’t be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch their kids so they can both work.’

‘Marriage doesn’t mean a thing any more, those Hollywood stars seem to be getting divorced at the drop of a hat.’

‘I’m afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a whole lot of foreign business.’

‘Thank goodness I won’t live to see the day when the Government takes half our
income in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are electing the best people to congress.’

‘The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they will
ever catch on.’

‘There is no sense going to the beach anymore for a weekend, it costs nearly $15.00 a night to stay in a hotel.’

‘No one can afford to be sick anymore, at $35.00 a day in the hospital it’s too rich for my blood.’

‘If they think I’ll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it.’

Why write about auto insurance for teenagers on a website for baby boomer? Well, lots of us still have kids at home, and some of those kids are just turning 16. Sweet 16 has a nice ring, and it often brings a new driver’s license and a set of keys to the family car. Of course, as we look into auto insurance rates for teenagers, we find that our kid may double or triple our nice middle aged premium!

With not just your student’s car insurance, but also your whole family’s auto insurance, and maybe even other policies, it will take forever to call around and compare rates.

First, don’t assume that your old car insurance company is giving your family the best break. With multiple car insurance policies, and possibly an auto and homeowners insurance policy discount due, you do have buying power. Shop Around.

Also, find out what kind of discounts you can earn if your student earns good grades, or takes an approved driver’s education or driver’s safety course. If you are in the market for a new or used car, look at the cheapest cars to insure because one of the cars that car insurance companies think are safe can also earn you a substantial discount.

You have no idea how sad I am. I guess it’s me, being a middle aged woman myself, and one who prides herself on having a share of chutzpah. Yes. I backed Senator Hillary Clinton to the wall in her bid for the democratic nomination. I still believe that she is the candidate who is realistic and experienced, and that she backed up her campaign platform with substance. I really don’t have anything against Obama, but I do think he lacks realism, experience, and substance. Even Edwards, cannot bring himself to endorse Obama. It was a matter of substance, and a health care policy that did not go far enough.

And whatever you think of Rev. Wright (I actually sort of thought he was amusing), he had a point. Obama is a politician. .. an actor…. and if we cannot fault him for certain mistakes he did not make, then we can put that down to a lack of history…..

But see, I was sad before. I was 14 years old when Sen. George McGovern lost his bid for the white house. I worked as a Young Democrat then, and I made phone calls for him, and walked around canvassing people, and when I saw him, it was like a knight in shining armour.

So I have had my share of political disapointments. Think Al Gore. But since McGovern was beaten, even losing South Dakota, the home state we both share, I did not think my heart could ache over it. It may be time for Hillary to seek her destiny elsewhere, and I wish it wasn’t so, but I have learned that the best person does not always win. Maybe McGovern learned that too, and that is how is can stand on a podium and urge her to quit.

Anyway, she’s only 60, and in 4 or even 8 more years, would not be the oldest person to seek the big white house!

What do you think of the news that Sly Stallone takes HGH to help him stay buff and keep up his energy levels?

When somebody who is AKA Rocky and Rambo, I have to be curious. It got me wondering if HGH is legal to take in the US.

Well, apparently legel HGH supplements are legal if they come in the form of nutrients and vitamins, and they can be taken in pill form. I thought that it was something that had to be injected. Here is an article: Buy Legal HGH Products.

Since we’d all like to find a fountain of youth, I was just wondering what everybody else thought. Thanks!

Have you seen a display of Alli diet pills at the store? They are the one diet pill that is actually FDA approved, unlike most of the other pills out there. Compared to some of the other diet pills on the market, they may seem a bit pricy, but we found you a great money saving offer on the link below. The link also leads to one woman’s experience with Alli too!

Alli Diet Pills Discounts

She writes that she did lose weight with Alli, and with the low fat planned outlined in the booklet that is packaged with the Alli Starter Package. She says that she did experience some problems with an urgent bowel movement if she ate too much fat for a meal, but that negative side affect actually helped trained her to stick to the diet better. Nothing like a little punishment to keep us on our path, right?

The website also contains more information on the MyAlli Diet Plan and Alli.

Has anybody else tried ALLI, with the MyAlli Diet Plan? We’d love to hear your comments.
