Ms. Williams,

Why on earth do you think you're old? I am shocked. You are NOT old.

As a mother in her 40s, I too find the idea of a bestseller called "How Not to Look Old" appalling. But while I might look at it and flip through the pages, yes, perhaps surreptitiously, I would not buy it. Why? Because I am not old. Nor do I look old.

Okay, yes, I admit it, my kids have been known to say, "But Mom, that's cause you're OLD." (They're teenagers, what can I say. This too shall I pass, I tell myself.)

I bet you've heard that silly adage, "You're only as old as you feel." Or is it, "You only look as old as you feel." My hair is grey. I can't wear sexy shoes any more because of a bunion. But I'm pretty darned healthy. And I feel great. I laugh out loud and I love the feel of the sun on my face.

Don't you dare say we're old!

and would you please go return that book and any others of its ilk? Thank you.

Perhaps only the pre-teens and teens will enjoy it with you, or get all the jokes, but boy howdy will they. I won't go so far as to call your mother a hamster or to say, "I spit on you," but I am quite simply, shocked at this omission.

What better way to while away rainy afternoons then howling together at the Monty Python crew? Any of them, all of them will do nicely. (You can start with the films, and then graduate them to the series, even.)

Seriously, many thanks for getting this list started!

Brilliant!

Samantha Bee, you (and your writers) are brilliant.

Simply Brilliant.

Keep "it" coming.
