107 years of being single

For all you single ladies out there, don't worry if you don't have a boy-toy yet. Wait a few years, or until you are past 100 to start looking for the husband like this young lady did.

Editor's note: I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

If I ever reach the ripe age of 90 or even a 100, I can tell you that the first thing to come to mind would not be looking for a spouse.

Well, this Chinese woman doesn't agree with me because she is looking for her first husband at 107 years old.

From the article:
"A 107-year-old Chinese woman who was afraid to marry when she was young has decided to look for her first husband and hopes to find a fellow centenarian so they will have something to talk about, a Chinese paper reported.

Wang Guiying is worried she is becoming a burden to her aging nieces and nephews since breaking her leg when she was 102 and had to stop doing chores like washing her clothes.

"I'm already 107 and I still haven't got married," the Chongqing Commercial Times quoted her saying. "What will happen if I don't hurry up and find a husband?"

What will happen if you don't hurry up and find a husband? Um, well, I don't think you have that much time left to actually be married at this point. Do you really want to be with a man on your last days on earth? And, do you want one is is a centenarian like you? Not me. What about you?
