Rico's friend Kelley forwards this:
A German retirement community made a calendar where seniors recreated famous movie scenes. The Comitia Retirement Group in Essen, Germany, made what is probably the best calendar ever with a few of their seniors.
According to the German press, five thousand calendars were printed and given to residents of the senior center, along with relatives and staff.
The calendar models, interviewed about the project, said it was tons of fun to dress up as their favorite actors. The shoot was done with professional stylists and photographers so that everything would look as cool as possible.
The oldest senior involved with the calendar was 98 years old.

Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.
If you haven't grown up by the time you are fifty,
then you don't have to...
then you don't have to...
Rico says who said the Germans have no sense of humor? (Well, not much of one.)
