Pop Quiz

The average woman believes 52 years old is the ideal age to A) open her own business, B) get plastic surgery, or C) start dating men at least 10 years younger

ANSWER

Get plastic surgery!  1 in 3 women are considering plastic surgery, and the majority consider 52 the perfect age for a little nip tuck.  

Also interesting in this survey is how many women favor looks over money.  29% would rather look 20 years younger than be a millionaire.

Who will admit to hating their name?

Is it your given name, or you the name you married into?  Would you love to change it?  If so, to what?

How about to Captain Awesome?  Oh, I'm sorry, that's already taken.  Douglas Allen Smith Jr was granted permission by a judge recently to change his name to Captain Awesome.  He was inspired by the character on the NBC show "Chuck," Dr. Devon "Captain Awesome" Woodcomb.  

The judge even gave him permission to sign his name as a right arrow, a smiley face, and a left arrow.  His bank, though, refuses to accept the signature.  Don't they know who he is?  He's CAPTAIN AWESOME, MAN!
