Now, I didn't write this, just got it in an email and thought it was cute!!!! Just in fun, but it could be a good idea.... For those of you who are married, were married, or are contemplating marriage - under the assumption that men need (or ought) to be trained for marriage. Southwest Tech is offering a new 2 year associate degree.... TWO YEAR DEGREE: Becoming a Real Man. That's right, in just six mini-masters, you, too, can be a real man as well as earn an associate degree in MA (Male Arts). Please take a moment to look over the program outline.

I run my own course - it's much shorter, but it's been tremendously successful, with nearly all males in North America graduating with honours. The only item which has not worked well is the last, which I put down to the basic untrainability of the female gender. A) While sex is always worthwhile, it is not within a man's control, so no action is required, just go with it... Corollary A1) - Women will talk of romance, flowers, little niceties, etc. These work very well if she wants them to, not at all if she doesn't. Corollary A2) - While romance etc. do not work initially, every woman has an internal scoreboard, so think of flowers as a good long term investment. Surprise her once in a while - that means don't do it often. B) Anything she hasn't complained about at least a dozen times is obviously not important - ignore it. Corollary B1) - This does not apply to golf clubs and fishing gear - any threats in this area should be taken seriously, and the item moved out of harm's way before returning to the couch. C) Anything she has complained about enough deserves a response - say after me; "Yes Dear!"; "Yes Dear"; "Yes Dear" - Good, I think you've got it... Corollary C1) - If work seems unavoidable, either forget some part or screw it up entirely - she won't be so anxious to have you do anything next time. Corollary C2) - If all else fails, you can always fall back on the old standard, "I forgot"... CAUTION: OVERUSE WILL CAUSE SCREAMING FITS AND NEGATIVE MARKS ON THE SCOREBOARD!!! D) The first man who convinces his wife to leave the toilet seat UP when she's finished will be immediately issued his Master's degree, regardless of other qualifications... |

Brewster you get an "A" for effort, but if the toilet seat is up or down you guys should be able to manage with a bit of adjustment. NOw, what happens in the middle of the night and woman are thinking how thoughtful men are and we are not concerned, we know the toilet sit is down and we sit down, find out the toilet seat is up and we wind up with a wet behind?

Considering the difficulty of item "D", I have an alternate credit available: The memorization of "The Book of Unanswerable Questions", which has a new, expanded edition ecery month. At hearing ANY of these questions, and red-blooded male will immediately freeze. He is ALREADY in trouble! DO NOT attempt ANY answer - A non answer will still cost you a point on her scorecard, but ANY vocalization will cost a minimum of 10! While I cannot print out the whole book, and many are already well known, here are a few samples: 1 - "What are you thinking?" 2 - "Do you love me? As much as you used to, I mean?" 3 - "Does this dress make me look fatter?" 4 - "That new neighbour sure is pretty, isn't she?" 5 - "What would you do if I died?" |

Concerning the old toilet seat up debate. Why would someone sit down, without looking first? I wouldn't. There might be a bug on it. |

Why do women refuse to put the toilet seat down without moaning and groaning about it? The darn thing is on hinges and its not heavy. Personally, I leave it up as an effort to show how hygenically concerned I am and methods are openly subject to inspection. Simply allowing the female |

agreed, tom - and as far as the middle of the night goes, that's why we have one of those little plug-in "night-lights" in the bathroom. C'on Ladies - its a big bad world out there, handle it. |

Toilet seats: ARGH! One of my pet peeves!:thumbdown: For those that ask why we can't just put it down before using, I ask... Wouldn't you men be more comfy having a seat to do your thang? You can sit on it for other matters, why not get used to it? And you wonder why women take so long to use the bathroom. We're sitting there comfy not trying to write our names out in green in the saniflush blue bowl. :help: |
