MEN ARE JUST HAPPIER PEOPLE

posted by:

Some old retired guy has figured it all out.  Well at least he thinks he has anyway and us women won’t tell him any different.

NICKNAMES

If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah.

If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes.

EATING OUT

When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in $20, even though it’s only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.

When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.

MONEY

A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.

A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn’t need but it’s on sale.

BATHROOMS

A man has six items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel.

The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337.  A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items.

ARGUMENTS

A woman has the last word in any argument.

Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

FUTURE

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

SUCCESS

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

MARRIAGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.

A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, but she does.

DRESSING UP

A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the trash, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.

A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.

NATURAL

Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.

Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

OFFSPRING

Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.

A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

A married man should forget his mistakes. There’s no use in two people remembering the same thing!

Looking for business cards

posted by:

A friend of mine is starting up a new business.  She asked me for help with printing up business cards.  There are a lot of printing companies around here but they are sort of expensive.  When you are just starting out, you need to pinch pennies any way you can so there’s a better chance of your business making a profit as soon as possible instead of flopping.  You know what I mean?

Well after doing a lot of searching for her, I found the perfect printing shop that will not only print up some great business cards, but won’t take her to the bank just to get them.  Places like Kinko’s are great but at the same time, you really need to watch everything you spend and that’s why I suggested she check out this site online.  She’ll save money on gas and still get quality printing just like she would locally.  In fact, they can print up just about anything she needs like fliers, announcements for her opening and even anything else she can think of that might help her get off to a good start.  I really wish her all the luck in the world and am glad I could help.

Halloween will be here soon

posted by:

Halloween is a favorite holiday for a lot of people.  They decorate their homes, their yards and anything else they can get their hands on.  Sure it’s cute and fun to try and make your home spooky so kids will enjoy it but this is a bit much if you ask me.  Well it might be a bit much but it sure is cute!!!

I bet this is one of those pictures where the kid will be very angry at their parents if they ever show anyone this picture once they get grown!!!  I sure would be!

My grandparents are getting older

posted by:

I have a hard time admitting that my grandparents are getting older, ya know.  I still see them as I did as a child.  One thing I’m very happy about is they’re redoing one of their bathrooms with one of those walk-in bathtubs.   My grandfather is getting up in age and my grandmother has bad knees so it’s hard for both of them to step into their other tub.

There are several models of walk-in tubs for them to choose from too.  I had no idea there were as many as there are but I was sure glad to see that.  In fact, on that web site I found many links and resources for the elderly and disabled that I was totally unaware of.  I guess things like that don’t get your attention unless you know of someone personally in need of resources like that.  It’s a great service they provide for the elderly and disabled I think.  I know I was glad to see them to help out my grandparents.

You have to check this out

I got this from a friend of mine and it’s the coolest thing I have ever seen.

HEMA is a Dutch department store. The first store opened November 4,1926, in Amsterdam. Now there are 150 stores all over the Netherlands .

Take a look at HEMA’s product page. You can’t order anything and it’s in Dutch but just wait a couple of seconds and watch what happens. Don’t click on any of the products pictured, just wait and see what happens. Be sure you have your sound turned on.

This company has a sense of humor and a great computer programmer.  All you have to do is go to http://producten.hema.nl/ and enjoy!!!
