What are the chances that a woman over fifty will get remarried?

Answer

You might be suprised at how many women over 50 re-marry. Just last year I married for the second time. My new wife is or was 57, now she's 58. We are the same age except I am about 4 months older than she is. We met on the Internet on one of those dating sites that you don't have to pay to meet someone. We exchanged emails, talked on Messenger, talked on the telephone and since she was un-employed at the time we decided that it would be best if she came to meet me and since then we both have been as happy as a lark. Just because you are 50 or more doesn't mean that you can't meet Mr. Right and get married, but the two of you will have to find each other and let nature take it's course. Good Luck

Is your first and last name required in a signature?

A person's signature is essentially the same as his or her "mark." It is intended to represent a person's acknowledgement.

Technically, there is no requirement for both a first and a last name in a signature. For example, the performance artist "Cher" would not be expected to use a last name when issuing her signature as an autograph because she is known universally by her first name alone. When signing legal documents, however, she most likely would need to "sign" (or "write her signature") using both her first and last names, e.g. Cherilyn LaPiere. Of course, she might have had her name legally changed to "Cher," in which case the courts would accept that as her signature.

Similarly, the writer J.R.R. Tolkien ("The Lord of the Rings") most likely would have used his three initials and his last name as his signature. The "Dallas" character "J.R. Ewing" likewise probably would have had two initials and his last name for his signature. Thus, a first and last name would not be part of either's signature. Benjamin Franklin, American inventor and statesman, often signed "B Franklin," which clearly does not include a first name even though he was known by his first and last names combined-- unlike the model "B. Smith," who is not known by a first name at all.
