Response to Simon Davis’ “Men as Success Objects and Woman as Sex Objects: A Study of Personal Advertisement I really enjoyed this reading because it just made me think of “stereotypes” as a whole in the perspective that maybe all stereotypes come some sort of truth.

After reading “the question: do you agree with Jason Geller that when individuals receive help‚ they should ‘pay it forward’”‚ I agree with him because I recently read the book Give and Take.

He was a successful giver instead

“GROWING OLD IS NOT FOR SISSIES!” Bette Davis‚ Actress (1908 – 1989) One of my favorite actresses of all time was Bette Davis. In the year that she died‚ her last public appearance was on the Johnny Carson Show. I happened to see that show and I saw Johnny ask her if she had any words of wisdom for folks that might be watching to remember as they age. She unhesitatingly said‚ “You tell them that growing old is not for sissies!” Wow. That sage advice has stuck with me for all these years.
