Quote of the Day ...

... and it's not even noon!

It's courtesy of Jessica, who has thus far been quiet all morning. She's been working diligently, so that amount of concentration combined with the concern and sensitivity with which Jessica usually says things made this particularly special:

"Joey Buttafuoco has not aged well."

This does not imply he looked good to begin with, of course. But it never matters how bad it is to begin with: It can always get worse.

Feel free to share your aging well/not aging well observations. Here are some of mine:

Aging well: Kiefer Sutherland (mmm, Kiefer ...)
Not aging well: Nicollette Sheridan
Aging well: Jaclyn Smith
Not aging well: Michael Douglas

Also, it seems patently unfair that, for the most part, men age better than women. Is that really true, or is it the insane mind-set that older women are not attractive while men grow into their looks? And if that is true, how does nature explain Helen Mirren?

I don't think it's a coincidence that Ringo and Yoko have both made sunglasses part of their look: started wearing them early, never take them off. Whereas Macca (allegedly) decided plastic surgery was the way to go. "Bad decisions made by an aging Paul McCartney" deserves a whole other post, but I'm just saying there's a lesson to be learned here from the sunglasses. (Although you might have to be a rock star to really take advantage.)
