Sometimes I feel like I should build a parking lot in front of my medicine chest and open a pharmacy. -Lola Don t mess with Lola. She s too old for you to be asking she bucks stereotypes like a bronco and she suffers adult sons daughters-in-law and potential suitors badly. In Old Age Isn t for Sissies Lola continues her brash march through life stepping over proper diet exercise and political correctness. She s a take-no-prisoners cigar-chomping beer-on-the-doily kind of gal who will whack you with her cane if given half a chance. But Lola s lack of charm is her most charming trait-and what makes her such a delight to fans of all ages.
