Things get better with age . . . and they are 50% off before 6 p.m.
Age is the Absence of Youth (and a Lot of Other Things) is a collection of wit and wisdom about the joys and trials of growing older, gracefully or not. From award-winning comedy writers Gene Perret and daughter Linda Perret, this joke book takes a humorous look at the reality of years gone by and going by. Like a hilarious greeting card, this book is proof that age is more than a punchline and laughter truly makes you feel younger.

With age comes wisdom they say, but it also brings along a ton of laughs. We become wise enough to realize that we can’t do some of the things we did so well when we were young. And we gain the intelligence to be able to laugh at that.
The beloved comedian George Burns said it quite eloquently: “I can do anything at eighty that I could do when I was twenty. That gives you an idea of what terrible shape I was in at twenty.”
Bob Hope said, “You’re only as old as you feel and I don’t feel anything until about noon . . . by then, it’s time for my nap.”
Phyllis Diller kept her raucous, exhilarating laughter going until she was over ninety-five. She noted, “You know you’re getting older when your walker comes equipped with an air bag.”
