83 is old, but corrine brown, my rep, behaves as if oxygen supply is cut off for a reasonable thought.
You could say my sister is a cougar, she’s 80 and her boyfriend is 69......LOL

Being old and thinking/acting old are two different things. Your sister is living her life, not sitting knitting all the time and giving up. Good for her.
She is in better health than her boyfriend....He’s a nice guy, a legal Tex Mex...plays drums in a band, sells stuff at flea markets....yep, they haven’t slowed down...sister also had bi-lateral hip replacements. Kept her down for a couple of months in healing of the second hip replacement, breezed through the 1st one...
I was born and raised in Rochester, but haven’t lived there since 1972. I spent the summer of 2011 there because my sister was in hospice care, and it was then that I first discovered Bob Lonsberry’s radio show. I was delighted to find out that his program is replayed on a Syracuse station in the afternoon, so when I’m out and about, I get to listen to him. He’s excellent.
There are a lot of good representatives and senators though who haved served more than two terms:
Paul Ryan, Michele Bachmann, Jeff Sessions, Jim DeMint, John Barasso, Joe Wilson, Mike Pence, and Marsh Blackburn, to name a few.
We’d lose those stalwarts. And non-elected staffers would have far more power than they do today.
Representatives (because they have such short terms) could probably have more - it would have to be four (eight years) in order to keep the staggered effect.
But then they should simply go on to something else. Run for governor, for Senator, or just go back to whatever they did before becoming politicians.
Pretty funny nickname. Where did it come from?
For a relatively young woman (she is 46), she dresses like a dowdy old lday.
