The young are a different race. Which only becomes apparent when you are no longer remotely young. A lot of guys in their 40's endure a ton of misery because they're still under the illusion they're young. Which the beautiful stranger disabuses them of in the most brutal fashion. Moral? There is no moral. Just you've had your five minutes on stage now get off. Only a glutton for punishment tries to stay on stage.
I remember my wife was commenting to a sixteen year old Danish exchange student who was staying with us how she thought George Clooney was attractive (they were watching some film with Clooney in it). The girl said, no he is an old man. This was before Clooney did his fat thing in Syriana.
I hate Sarah Jessica Parker, Robin Williams, Tim Robbins, Susan Saradon, the BJ Hunnicut guy, brussel sprouts, the Boston Red Sox, commies and well, lawyers.

Just because I think I am cool like Fernando Lamas but I am really just as cool as Abe Vigoda.
Vigoda as a mafioso was the one sour note in Godfather. Copolla must've been out to lunch the day he made that casting decision.
Cesar Romero, Fernando Lamas and the Corinthian leather guy, Ricardo Montalban, were the murderer's row of latin lovers.
I went to a club in Williamsburg on Saturday night with a bunch of kids in their early twenties.
I was Abe Vigoda.

It stinks to be wise.
I wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.

Ouch.
A man has to know his limitations.
I think more Barney Miller looking at that picture than Tessio.
Fish.
