I thought I might beat OZ with this one. I found it amusing. It at least put a smile on my face and thought I would share at the end of a long week. :)

Every bad thing and more that is listed here I am SURE I have heard while sitting in my office.

And this guy is not quiet either. It is yelling while on speaker phone, nextel or face to face.

I just shake my head and laugh.

He is on the board of trustees and is a great worker. These two things make him pretty much bullet proof.

I found this on another website that I'm a member of....man is it fuuuunnnnnee!

Don't Shave That Hair!!!
I have recently made a mistake in my life, and I offer my story, so that you may learn from my error. It all started, as many things do, with me having trouble sh_ting.

No, I was not constipated; this was not a regularity problem but a matter of technique. It seems my ass-hair had grown to such a length that tiny t-rds were constantly getting tied up in the matted jungle between my asscheeks. It led to much frustration, with me KNOWING that I still had something to drop, but unable to shake the tenacious turd loose from its butthair dwelling. Eventually I would have to do two things: either reach down with some paper and try to pinch off the lingering loaf (which required careful precision to avoid smearing the creature all over my rear, especially since I had no way of seeing what I was doing) or just go for broke, start wiping, and hope that I could remove all the leftover fecal matter before the toilet paper reached its Can't-Be-Flushed threshold.

I was contemplating this problem, when I had what seemed at the time to be a bright idea. "Hey! This is my butt and my butt-hair, right? So why don't I just eliminate all the hair, and then my turds will flow out like beer from a keg!" I said to myself. It is a statement that will go down in history with a lot of other regretted statements. "How many Indians could there be?" said by General Custer. "Looks like a good day for a drive!" by JFK. "There! America On-Line now has complete Usenet access!" by some idiot system tech. Such was my @ss shaving idea.

I performed the operation that night, with a cheap disposable razor and a towel to sit on. Starting from the bottom, and shaving from the crack to the cheeks, I began the arduous process of ridding my @ss of hair. Occassionally, I would have to clean the razor of accumulated hair and miscellaneous slime, which I did by wiping it on the towel. Slowly, my twin mounds and the between-ravine began to resemble the hairless cheeks of a newborn baby. Finally, I wiped the razor one last time, and surveyed my work. The towel was covered with a pile of hair. My ass was smooth as ivory. I smiled, satisfied, thinking my troubles were over.

Little did I know.

I now have a great respect for @ss-hair. Like everything in this world God created, it has its mighty purpose in existence. It was only after I had removed it that I started to learn how much I had been taking it for granted. For one, it provides friction. I learned this the next day, when I walked out into the sun heading for class. After climbing two flights of stairs and starting to sweat, I started to notice something unpleasant. The sweat was accumulating in my crack, and was causing the unpleasant sensation of my two asscheeks sliding past each other with every step. I thought about going to the bathroom and wiping it off, but had to get to class. Eventually, I thought, it would dry.

Unfortunately, it did dry, but only after mingling with the microscopic sh_t- molecules lingering around my brown starfish. When I stood up after class, my cheeks were stuck together with a slimy sticky sh_t/sweat combination. As I made my way back to my dorm, it started to itch. God-DAMN, did it itch! Felt like a swarm of ants was making its way up and down my crack. Fighting to keep from jamming my hand down there and scratching away, I rushed back to the dorm.

Unfortunately again, this exertion caused me to sweat, and when I finally reached my room, my cheeks were sliding back and forth against each other like a pair of horny cane-toads. I quickly dropped my pants, and attempted to dry my ass off by sticking it in front of a fan and spreading my cheeks. As I pulled the two mounds of flesh apart, a horrible stench burst free and filled the room. Every dog within a 4 block radius started to howl. I had it worst of all, as the ripe aroma of festering sh_t/sweat went into the fan and blew back into my face. I fought to keep from heaving. And as I sat there, fighting vomit, my @ss cheeks spread and dripping, with the concentrated aroma of my body odor mixed with the tangy smell of my own sh_t blowing right into my face, I had only one thought: "It will be like this until the hair grows back. Weeks."

Later on, trying to deal as best I could, wiping my @ss at every opportunity, I discovered another wonderful use for ass-hair - ventilation. I attempted to launch a fart, only to have it get stuck between my @sscheeks. Apparently, with no hair, the two pink twins can get vacuum sealed together, and the result was a frustrating fart that slid up and down between my cheeks like a lost gerbil.

As if that wasn't enough, I am now enduring further torture. As anyone who has ever shaved anything knows, when hair is first growing in, it comes in as stubble. Imagine your @ss having the texture of a brillo pad. Well, that is what I am dealing with now. It is a hellish torture, and there are many times when I just look out the window and contemplate why I shouldn't just jump out and get it all over with in one fleshy splat, rather than endure this constant agony.

Friends, DON'T SHAVE YOUR @SS-HAIR!

Ok, the tears are streaming down my face. That was just too funny. :) :)

by jdclyde

or so it seems. I will hear about all the things that stopped working today, on Monday.

I don't mind as I always have projects I am working on, and only do customer support to handle the over flow from my co-worker who is to blame for doing that. (blame=responsible. Same thing.)

I think I need to go test out our VPN from the access point up by the local bar, cheers!

by j.lupo

ok, the hicups have started now. :) I know this shouldn't be that funny. I must be losing it today.

that wouldn't take too much arm bending to fill the local pub, esp as the sun is out and the weather is great!

One day in the future, Jesse Jackson has a heart-attack and dies.

He immediately goes to hell, where the devil is waiting for him.

"I don't know what to do here," says the devil. "You are on my list, but I have no room for you. You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got a couple of folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves."

Jesse thought that sounded pretty good, so the devil opened the door to the first room. In it, was Ted Kennedy and a large pool of water. He kept diving in, and surfacing, empty handed. Over, and over, and over he dove in and surfaced with nothing. Such was his fate in hell.

"No," Jessie said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer, and I don't think I could do that all day long."

The devil led him to the door of the next room. In it was Al Gore with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, hammer, time after time after time.

"No, I've got this problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks al! day," commented Jesse.

The devil opened a third door. Through it, Jesse saw Bill Clinton, lying on the floor with his arms tied over his head, and his legs restrained in a spread-eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best.

Jesse looked at this in shocked disbelief, and finally said, "Yeah, I can handle this."

The devil smiled and said . . . . . . . . . . .

(This is priceless)

"OK, Monica, you're free to go."

"Marriage"

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three
likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches
to see what they do with the money.

The first does a total make over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon gets
her hair done, new make up and buys several new outfits and dresses up
very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be
more attractive for him because she loves him so much. The man was
impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set
of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive
clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent
all the money on him because she loves him so much. Again, the man is
impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several
times the $5! ,000. She gives him back his $5000 and reinvests the
remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for
their future because she loves him so much. Obviously, the man was
impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the
money he'd given her.

Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

Don't keep us hanging Mae!

I find myself looking for a woman with high standards, low morals, no gag reflex and big breast for some reason.

by maecuff

Haven't you had enough trouble?? Speaking of big breasts... my 2nd husband told me that he had a very special birthday planned for me (my 31st). He had arranged for me to see a surgeon so that I could have my breasts enlarged and wanted me to get my hair dyed blonde. And couldn't understand why I turned down his generous gift.

Subject: "...Worse Things in Life..."

A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an envelope propped up prominently on the center of the bed. It was addressed, "Dad".

With the worst premonition, he opened the envelope and read the letter with trembling hands:

Dear Dad, It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you I had to elope with my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mom and you. I've been finding real passion with Joan and she is so nice-even with all her piercing, tattoos, and her tight Motorcycle clothes. But it's not only the passion dad, she's pregnant and Joan said that we will be very
happy. Even though you won't care for her as she is so much older than I, she already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. She wants to have many more children with me and that's now one of my dreams too.

Joan taught me that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone and we'll be growing it for us and trading it with her friends for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Joan can get better; she sure deserves it!

Don't worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your
grandchildren.

Your loving son, John

PS: Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbor's house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than my
report card that's in my desk center drawer. I love you!

PS: Call when it is safe for me to come home.

**************************************************

Soon after our last child left home for college, my husband was resting next to me on the couch with his head in my lap. I carefully removed his glasses.

"You know, honey," I said sweetly, "Without your glasses you look like the same handsome young man I married."

"Honey," he replied with a grin, "Without my glasses, you still look pretty good too!"

**************************************************

Two buddies were sharing drinks while discussing their wives. "Do you and your wife ever do it doggy style?", asked one.

"Well, not exactly," his friend replied, "She's more into the trick dog aspect of it."

"Oh, I see, kinky, huh?"

"Well, not exactly, I sit up and beg, and she rolls over and plays dead."

**************************************************

A couple had been married for many years, and their son had gotten old enough to date. One day the boy brought a girl over to diner. The mother was thrilled with her son's choice and couldn't wait for the wedding. However, the father was upset and, eventually, the boy asked, "Dad, why don't you seem happy with her. Mom likes her a lot."

The father explained, "No son, there's nothing wrong with the girl. It's just that I cheated on your mother a long time ago, and the girl you've been dating is my daughter by that woman."

So the boy dumped her and found himself another girl. Again, he brought her home to the mother's delight, but the father again told him this girl was actually his half-sister. The boy lost his temper and told his mother what his father had said.

Furious, the mother shouted, "Don't listen to him, sweetheart! He isn't even your father!"

**************************************************

A young couple were married, and celebrated their first night together, doing what newlyweds do, time and time again, all night long.

Morning comes and the groom goes into the bathroom but finds no towel when he emerges from the shower. He asks the bride to please bring one from the bedroom. When she gets to the bathroom door, he opened the door, exposing his body for the first time to his bride where she sees all of him well.

Her eyes went up and down and at about midway, they stopped and stared, and she asked shyly, "What's that?", pointing to a small part of his anatomy.

He, also being shy, thought for a minute and then said, "Well, that's what we had so much fun with last night."

And she, in amazement, asked, "Is that all we have left?"

**************************************************

There was this guy who loved nothing better than to sit at nearby bar for long evenings and get stoned with his cronies. His wife was a social climber, and was prone to having her "ladies" in for bridge etc.

This one night she didn't want him to be around embarrassing her, so she told him to stay out as late as he wished, as long as he didn't come in and make another scene.

Well, he came in the back door a little early, as she was preparing tea and some delicate little sandwiches and she was infuriated at his early return home.

"You keep your mouth shut, and go upstairs to bed", she told him.

"Oh, relax," says her husband, "I'll just take a cup of coffee, say good evening to the ladies, and I'll be gone."

"Just keep your mouth shut", she says again.

Well, when she finally went back into the living room, all the ladies were gone, and he sat there alone.

She 'flipped' and told him she was going to divorce him and take everything he had, but he said, "wait a minute, you have to hear my side of the story."

"I came in here, sat down and said good evening to the ladies and they carried on. One lady said she was having trouble with mice in her house, and another lady suggested she stuff their holes with steel wool, and all I said was, Who is going to hold their little legs while you do it?"

**************************************************

A wedding occurred, just outside Cavan in Ireland.

To keep tradition going, everyone got drunk and the bride's and groom's families had a storming row and began wrecking the reception room and generally kicking the crap out of each other.

The Police got called in to break up the fight. The following week, all members of both families appeared in court. The fight continued in the court room until the Judge finally brought calm with the use of his hammer, shouting "Silence in Court!"

The court room went silent and Paddy (the best man) stood up and said, "Judge.. I was the best man at the wedding and I think I should explain what happened." The Judge agreed and asked Paddy to take the stand.

Paddy began his explanation by telling the court that it is traditional in a Cavan wedding that the Best Man gets the first dance with the Bride.

"Well", continued Paddy, "After I had finished the first dance, the music kept going, so I continued dancing to the second song, and after that the music kept going and I was dancing to the third song, when all of a sudden the Groom leaped over the table, ran towards us, and gave the Bride an unmerciful kick in her privates."

The Judge instantly responded: "God.. that must have hurt!"

Paddy replied, "HURT ?? It broke 3 of my fingers!!!"

**************************************************

The husband wanted to have sex with his wife, but he hated the "chore" of eating her out. He knew he had to do it if he was to get any nookie.

He starts to perform on her, and just as he darts his tongue inside her, she lets out a big fart.

He stops what he is doing, looks up at her and says, "Ahhh, sweetheart, thanks for the breath of fresh air!"

**************************************************

"Father, how am I going to tell my husband that I am still a virgin?"

"My child, you have been a married woman for many years. You have had three husbands! Surely that cannot be."

"Well, father, my first husband was a psychologist, and all he wanted to do was talk, and the next one was in construction and he always said he'd get to it tomorrow. The last one was a gynecologist and all he did was look. But this time, father, I'm marrying a lawyer and I'm sure I'm going to get screwed."

**************************************************

An elderly pair (he a widower, she a widow) meet in a retirement village. They seem to hit it off; they share each other's values, enjoy the same jokes, and find pleasure in each other's company.

After a few months, the widower asks for the hand of the widow in marriage. She appears hesitant and decided to probe her soon-to-be a little.

"Perhaps I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, but... How's your health?"

"It's OK", he answers. "I'm not getting any younger, but I don't have any major health problems. I can still enjoy life."

"Well, then," she replies. "I don't want to be a snoop, but I've got to protect myself, how are you fixed financially?"

"So-so. I'm not rich, but I'm comfortable. You don't have to worry about me sponging off you; I can support myself."

The little old lady blushes, and finally asks her swain, "And how's your sex life?"

"Infrequently." he declares.

The widow ponders this for a moment or so, before asking, "And is that one word or two?"

I'm glad my husband finds me incredibly hot just as I am. At least that's the story he tells me.

by jdclyde

The party will be over by the time he show up. Dollar short and a daze late.

by j.lupo

It's Friday and he is tired. Don't wake him yet. . . :D I think the usual gang for Friday Yuk is on vacation this week. After all yesterday was Cinco de Mayo and Sunday is Mother's day.

by jdclyde

some lame excuse about time zones and such "rubbish". (thanks to the teachings of Neil)

But I did notice that half of the gang is MIA.

by jdclyde

on the weekend of Mothers Day!

Where is your respect?

Give it another try with something that is nicer to my mom!

Bad dawg! Bad dawg!

out of respect for dear old mom

by bhunsinger

One week, a section of the wall surrounding the convent, just outside the infirmary, collapsed. Naturally, they called a company to fix it. The contractors came out and, being Irish, was sweet talked by the Mother Superior (who was also his wife's great aunt) into a tremendous discount.
The next day, he sent a crew to start cleaning the debris. Later that day, before evening devotions, Sister Cloony spoke to Mother Superior:
"Mother Superior, about the contsruction workers...
Oh and isn't grand want a foine job their doin, My great niece's husband gave us a great deal and sent them quick too. Arn't we greatful!'
Well yes, but they make a great deal of noise. And their Language! Oh my!
'Now dear, they're just strong men who call a spade a spade.'
'No they don't Mother Superior, Elenaor said primly;'they call it a f*ckin shovel!"

by sleepin'dawg

After all who would know better??? :^O My Mom would always blush when I told her that and say, "Well you know what I mean." To which I would usually reply, "No. What do you mean???" This usually set her to blushing and laughing and got me out of more trouble than I care to admit to. If my Dad was around and my 'trouble had really angered her, he'd help me out by saying something like, "I'd be interested in hearing that answer too." I lost my Mom last year at age 93 and there still isn't a day when I don't think of either my Mom or my Dad. Mother's Day and Father's Day are the two days I'm sure to be visiting the cemetary. I was lucky. I was blessed with two of the greatest people a kid could have had for parents. The first time I ever used SOB when I was a kid I didn't know what it meant and when my Dad drew me aside and explained, I burst into tears and ran and told my Mom I was sorry. She had no idea what I was talking about but forgave me anyway. Afterwards when my Dad told her she laughed and somehow it became a sort of running gag in our family; both the SOB and ba$tard gags. Sorry if I offended anyone but maybe you'll all understand a bit better now and no, I won't retract it. I was an only child but I was never ever condescended to as a child but treated as an equal, though junior, partner. My Dad had an expression which he'd use when he thought my Mom wasn't around, "Son, f@#% 'em all if they can't take a joke." and though she would never have put it that way, was pretty much my Mom's attitude as well. It's ingrained in me and I'm not about to change for anyone. Doing so would dishonour myself and my memories of my parents. So I'm sorry if you were offended but there was no offense intended; just a tiny memory of a childhood surrounded by love and filled with lots of laughter and now only the memories of two of the best friends a guy could possibly have had.

OK, I'm new & I've held my keystrokes on many occasions over the last few days, but this is funny. It seems like jlupo has gone thru R.Z.'s postings & come up with some alternatives...
(Posted seriously tongue in cheek as I find R.Z. very amusing - I'd like him to post that balloon & the IT Manager item again - the fact that amcol listed as an Executive wants to vaporize him is just too good)!

by j.lupo

not to take away from your interpretation of my posting, but I have been holding that one aside since last week. Before R.Z's postings got so "interesting".

Now that you mention it, I guess it is pretty funny the possible relationship. I just didn't see it before. :^)

by hal 9000

Holding back keystrokes is an unpardonable sin that there is no excuse for what so ever. ;)

After all this isn't one of the more serious technical things so you are not only welcome to add but are required to! Get the message? :D

Col ]:)

by jdclyde

Was just holding your feet to the flames, that is all.

All in good fun.

Sorry about the parents, they really can make a big impact on your life can't they? Cancer got dad 20 years ago so got a bit of feel for what it is like.

by hal 9000

That Blonds brains shrink and move to their boobs.

Now why didn't you want to play along? :)

Was it that you thought you would have far too many brains to be a blond? ;)

Or could it have been that you where worried that if you fell forward you wouldn't hit your face on the ground? :)

I know you didn't want to have to buy all new cloths again did you? No that couldn't be the reason a woman not wanting to go shopping is an impossibility. :D

Col ]:)

by hal 9000

He knew exactly what he was getting when he married you so why the attempt to change you from what you are?

I hope it wasn't because you forced too many changes on him that could account for the "special present." ;)

My wife has given up trying to change me as she by now knows it to be a lost cause, but she claims that she gets some other benefits just provided I do not attempt to follow her instructions to the letter. :p

Of course after the first few times she started changing her requests so they didn't involve as much pain to her and allowed her to walk after wards! :D

Col ]:)

by hal 9000

Mine actually threatened the local shopping Center that she would blow the place up if they didn't open 7 days a week for her and then started complaining about just how crowded it was. :(

Now she piratically lives in the place perhaps if you could distill a serum from the blood of your wife I could vaccinate mine so I at least have some money left for me to play with. ;)

But mine says she hates shopping to but as she goes there every day I do not believe her one little bit. At first she started claiming that her car needed to be run daily so that was why she went there just for the car nothing else {Yea I believed that to :p}, then she started the "I Hate Shopping thing" but keeps going there each and every day now that we have the shops open 7 days a week she has her choice of where she can go as there are at least 5 major shopping centers close by so she tries a different one every day if not more than one per day. :)

That's my excuse & I'm sticking to it although I haven't seen as many of the regulars as usual.

I think he needs to have his feet held to the fire until he posts yuks enough to obsolve his deeds.

Whats all the crawling for?

You're not involved with Deepsand and Neil on the EL thread are you? ;)

It will not work I'm not going back there ever Neil almost had me last night as I had to have a look see to what he was referring to but I escaped unscathed and plan to stay that way. :)

Anyway no matter that you can not suck me back in have a great one. :p

I don't spend lots of time at it; only when I feel a need to vent my spleen at some of the eagerated ideas they have regarding science. They also have very flexible ideas about what constitutes truth.

Dawg ]:)

by hal 9000

They have some very rigid ideas on what "Truth" is after all it is written down in "The Book" so it must be right and can not be altered. ;)

All the ID stuff only came about as a way to attempt to prove what is in the book and is the rational behind the whole thing so "Truth" doesn't need to be involved they believe so therefore anything that makes sense to their belief system must be right. :)

I saw something on TV a while ago about students in school in one of the US States who where justifying ID and demanding that it be taught as "Fact" because it worked with their personal belief systems. It was a perfect example of "Open Minds wishing to learn" God Help them when they hit the real world and try to get a job in some real Science Area. :(

Or maybe that should GOD HELP US ALL! :D

Any way "May the Great Architect of the Universe" look after you! :p

Actually thinking about it maybe they have grabbed some of the ideas behind Free Missionary and twisted them into what is now know as ID as "The Great Architect of the Universe" sounds so much more like an ID idea than the simple word GOD doesn't it?

by maecuff

I don't try to change people. It doesn't work. Besides, he was pretty sure he was perfect as he was.. it was me who needed improvement.

by hal 9000

Think he was "Perfect?" ;)

Anyway a little pannel beating around the edges doesn't hurt provided you want it. The problems only arise when others think you need it and then try to force it onto you because it suits their ideas of what it is to be "Perfect." :p

I know I am because the wife doesn't even attempt to change me in any way she just complains bitterly when I say I'll be back shortly and take several hours/days to finish a job but I've got better as I no longer ring her from a different city and say I will not be home tonight I'm is such & such a place and I'll be here for a few days. :D

since she is perfect, I'm keeping the perfection to myself. ( I AM a sadist you know )
then I can watch all you guys suffer.

by jdclyde

I used to have to deal with running over on the expected time of arival, so I changed it to "I will be home before you wake up".

Time would fly playing computer games all night at my buds house, but at least we weren't out at the bars is the way I looked at it.

by hal 9000

I'll have no alternative but to kidnap her so I can work on a Serum myself. Of course I'll do the right thing by you and leave a big boobed blond transvestite at your house as a courtisy but you'll have to understand that he/she will be constantly giving your plastic a hiding and attempting to wear it out on a daily basis. :p

Or I could pay her a visit and remove a small amount of blood for testing purposes something like 11 pints aught to be enough but your wife might be slightly anemic after wards but I'm sure that you'll cope particularly when I tell her that you gave me the OK to do this. :D

Women don't really want men to change...y'all do that all on your own! We just expect some degree of the same treatment we got at the outset...the flowers, the nice compliments, the opening of doors, etc., etc. Then...something happens, and we find that the nice fellow who used to say such sweet things and gave excellent foot rubs is parked on our couch, eating Cheetos and screaming obscenities at televised sports in a wifebeater T-shirt. Who needs that? :D

by jdclyde

I must have missed that meeting of the guys club because I never got one.

Cheetos, uhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm. (wipe drool)

And all the sweet things we would say, like "hey woman, get me another beer"?

Foot rubs? Ewwww. Back and leg rubs ok. Even neck and temples, but feet? Just not a foot person......

Oh well, with the note book I am making from reading the posts from you ladies I will either make the next woman in my life very happy or turn gay. (I just hope it is the first option!)

by salamander

A wifebeater T-shirt is a sleeveless white T-shirt. It was Bruce Willis' uniform in Die Hard, if I recall correctly...I believe that has been the only positive depiction of the wifebeater T-shirt in popular culture. I think that they were depicted with a great deal of frequency in the movie Joe Dirt, as well, but in conjunction with the mullet. :D

In a word...ick.

by hal 9000

"STOP VIOLENT WOMEN!" :p

Then when I opened a door for one I had a Sexual Harassment suit filed on me. :(

Makes one wonder just what it is that women actually want. ;)

Of course the last time I brought flowers for my wife I was grilled for hours as to just what it was that I had done wrong. Talk about a no win situation. You do not buy unexpected presents and you are an uncaring pig and when you do it is only to cover up or attempt to make up for something that you must have done wrong. :(

Now if only I could bring myself to smack her across the mouth and then say "SHUT-UP WENCH and do as you are told!" :D

Well I can dream can't I? :p

Col ]:)

by jdclyde

Back in the 80's I had the mullet going and there wasn't ANYTHING wrong with it! (had to let it grow long then because I KNEW genitics was catching up fast and I would end up like this, so had fun while I could.)

Muscle tees? Sleeveless tee shirt right? (hmm, I used to have those too a long time ago)

Wow, I fit your image better BEFORE I was married than after! Maybe that is why the wife left? She wanted a brute in a wife beater shirt!

by jdclyde

After years of marriage, the best part of a blow job is the 10 minutes of quiet.

I s'pose that I've never had a problem with chivalry in the workplace. Can't imagine that anyone gets worked up over that, but there are militants in every group. :(

Chivalry in one's personal life is a privately-negotiated thing, and to each their own. I guess I don't see that as 'chivalry' as much as an appreciation thing on an individual basis.

As for flowers...it depends on the individual. With some men, you KNOW that they only get you flowers when they mess up. with others, it's a spontaneous gesture of appreciation. It just sort of depends on who you're dealing with. I tend to take them on face value, unless I have reason to suspect otherwise.

Hah, hah...never threaten to smack a woman who has good aim with guns, frying pans, or golf clubs (and just about all of us are experts in at least one of those three art forms). ;)

by salamander

Two words for you re: the Mullet that will cut off any defense of the mullet in modern times, after 1992 or thereabouts...

Michael Bolton.

'Nuff said. :D

by jdclyde

(and mine was 80's like I said)

but bringing Bolton into this was hitting below the belt and just not right. You have a mean streak in you woman.

I'll tell you what I think is a funny story.

Many years ago when the kids where still little I was pushing a motorcycle into a shed when the wife came along and offered to help me. Well rather than start the beast up I accepted and she bend down to push and nothing happened so I looked over my shoulder and saw her turned the other way. Thinking that she had given up I swung my left leg over the bike just as she bent down and I caught her just beside the right eye with the heal of the riding boot. She had a beautiful shiner and I got to put the bike away myself. ;)

Well that wasn't the end of it as the next day we had to attend the school where the kids went and see the principal about something and by this time the bruising was well and truly out. The fact that she is allergic to makeup didn't help one little bit either so we just went to the school and she insisted that I had beat her up to the Principal who we both knew and it was all a big joke.

Then we had to go into the city for something and she was being her usual cheeky self so I turned around to her and said something along the lines of "Walk 10 paces behind or I'll give you another one. " Just at that moment a little old lady was walking past and she attacked me with her handbag and umbrella calling me all sorts of names and I was just protecting my upper body and laughing which got her even more worked up so she continued hitting me with anything in her hands, of course the wife stood back laughing and eventually a couple of Police Officers pulled her off and wanted to know if I wanted to press charges for assault which I declined as I was still laughing too hard. The old dear then insisted that the Police arrest me for beating up my wife girlfriend or whatever she was and pointed to the black eye as proof that I was a woman basher. By this time "She Who Must Be Obeyed" was laughing so hard that she was crying.

For the rest of that day I kept getting I got that little old ladies address and phone number do you want me to call her to pay you another visit? :)

Well the next day I was covered in bruises all up my arms and torso and we had to return to the school again so I just said that I'd been bashed and I was considering myself lucky as she couldn't get the chain guard off the chain saw or get it started so I only had a few bruises instead of missing limbs.

Only time I've ever seen the wife at a loss for words. :D It only lasted for about 10 seconds but the look on her face was priceless. I wish I had a camera at the time as it was just something that came out unplanned. I would love to have a picture of her face at that moment. ;)

I'll leave the other things to another time. :)

Col ]:)

by hal 9000

That wouldn't work with my wife as she bites. :)

I personally prefer the sound of her voice it's less painful. :D

Col ]:)

by salamander

Great story, Col...Kind of reminds me of when a relative of mine was practicing his golf swing at a picnic, and apparently didn't check to see if anyone was in the vicinity when he swung back.

As with many things, it was poor timing. Had a heckuva bruise on my cheekbone for days. My cow-orkers were convinced, however, that somebody *had* to be beating me, because nobody gets hit in the face by accident, apparently.

Crap just happens sometimes. :D

by hal 9000

When the kids where in their early to mid teens the whole family was playing cricket in the front yard, my daughter was batting and I was sought of behind the wickets.

A ball was bolled to her and she swung madly at it as well as stepping back and letting go of the bat {or so I'm told} anyway the next thing that I knew was I was waking up in Hospital and them asking me what had happened. {As if I knew!} ;)

These accidents happen quite often and are always mostly unbelievable to many people so I just pass it off as S##T HAPPENS! And leave it at that. :D

But even thinking about that poor old dear still makes me laugh just the way that she carried on and the self righteous manner that she acted in I couldn't help but laugh. :p

Reminds me of when my brother and dad were out fishing one summer...

I was not in the boat, but from what I gathered, my brother reached back to cast and managed to catch my dad in the lip with the hook. All I saw was them walking up the hill from the boat, my dad with a bloody lip and my brother slinking along behind him. My stepmom and I got really busy setting up the grill, all of a sudden, because there was no way that we could face them without bursting out laughing.

At least I know that my clumsiness is an inherited condition!
