Rules..
WE ALWAYS HEAR 'THE RULES' FROM THE FEMALE SIDE
Now here are the RULES FROM THE MALE side;
1. MEN ARE NOT MIND READERS.
2. LEARN TO WORK THE TOILET SEAT. YOU'RE A BIG GIRL. IF IT'S UP, PUT IT DOWN. WE NEED IT UP, YOU NEED IT DOWN. YOU DON'T HEAR US COMPLAINING ABOUT YOU LEAVING IT DOWN.
3. CRYING IS BLACKMAIL.
4. ASK FOR WHAT YOU WANT. LET US BE CLEAR ON THIS ONE:
SUBTLE HINTS DO NOT WORK!
STRONG HINTS DO NOT WORK!
OBVIOUS HINTS DO NOT WORK!
JUST SAY IT!
5. YES AND NO ARE PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWERS TO ALMOST EVERY QUESTION.
6. COME TO US WITH A PROBLEM ONLY IF YOU WANT HELP SOLVING IT. THAT'S WHAT WE DO. SYMPATHY IS WHAT YOUR GIRLFRIENDS ARE FOR.
7. ANYTHING WE SAID 6 MONTHS AGO IS INADMISSIBLE IN AN ARGUMENT. IN FACT, ALL COMMENTS BECOME NULL AND VOID AFTER 7 DAYS.
8. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE FAT, YOU PROBABLY ARE. DON'T ASK US.
9. IF SOMETHING WE SAID CAN BE INTERPRETED TWO WAYS AND ONE OF THE WAYS MAKES YOU SAD OR ANGRY, WE MEANT THE OTHER ONE.
10. YOU CAN EITHER ASK US TO DO SOMETHING OR TELL US HOW YOU WANT IT DONE. NOT BOTH.
IF YOU ALREADY KNOW BEST HOW TO DO IT, JUST DO IT YOURSELF.
11. WHENEVER POSSIBLE, PLEASE SAY WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO SAY DURING COMMERCIALS.
12. CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS DID NOT NEED DIRECTIONS AND NEITHER DO WE...
13. ALL MEN SEE IN ONLY 16 COLOURS, LIKE WINDOWS DEFAULT SETTINGS..
PEACH, FOR EXAMPLE, IS A FRUIT, NOT A COLOUR. PUMPKIN IS ALSO A FRUIT. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MAUVE IS.
14. IF WE ASK WHAT IS WRONG AND YOU SAY 'NOTHING,' WE WILL ACT LIKE NOTHING'S WRONG. WE KNOW YOU ARE LYING, BUT IT IS JUST NOT WORTH THE HASSLE.
15. IF YOU ASK A QUESTION YOU DON'T WANT AN ANSWER TO, EXPECT AN ANSWER YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR..
16. WHEN WE HAVE TO GO SOMEWHERE, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING YOU WEAR IS FINE... REALLY.
17. DON'T ASK US WHAT WE'RE THINKING ABOUT UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO DISCUSS SUCH TOPICS AS FOOTBALL, RUGBY, CRICKET OR MOTOR SPORTS.
18. YOU HAVE ENOUGH CLOTHES.
19. YOU HAVE TOO MANY SHOES.
20. DON'T KEEP ASKING ME TO GET IN SHAPE - I AM IN SHAPE. ROUND IS A SHAPE!
I KNOW, I HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE SOFA TONIGHT. BUT DID YOU KNOW MEN REALLY DON'T MIND THAT? IT'S LIKE CAMPING...

Honesty..
On the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, President Biden assured us that “if there’s American citizens left, we’re gonna stay to get them all out.”
He told us that our allies had no problem with our hasty departure from Afghanistan.
Biden told us that the surging number of migrants we were witnessing at our country’s southern border was nothing out of the ordinary.
He told us that he “wouldn’t demand that [COVID vaccines] be mandatory.”
He assured us that if we were vaccinated, the chances were near zero that we would get sick enough to have to be hospitalized. Then he said the unvaccinated are a danger to those of us who have been vaccinated. This raises a question: “Huh?”
That’s just a sampling of President Biden’s misinformation. But Biden has been in office less than a year, give the man time to cause the next recession. Just a thought.
Harlem..
An early-morning shooting Monday at a gathering in Harlem left a man dead and eight other people wounded, New York City police said. Four other people who were shot also arrived at hospitals for treatment, police said. A 21-year-old man was pronounced dead at a hospital, police said, and the wounded included six other males and two females.
The shooting comes amid national concern over gun violence and as the U.S.
Supreme Court is considering whether to strike down a law that makes it difficult
to legally carry a handgun in New York. Shootings are down 11% so far this year in
New York City, compared to last year. Murders are still at their second-highest level since 2012.
These are all illegal guns. That is the only guns "available" as the laws are very restricted in NYC. Just a thought.
Boast..
President Joe Biden’s administration faces a double disaster after its Ukraine miscalculation, namely a US recession and a second strategic humiliation in the space of a year.
The US economy is almost certainly in recession, while oil prices drive inflation that has cut workers’ real pay by about 6% year on year.
Washington’s earlier boasts of driving Russian President Vladimir Putin from power, destroying Russia’s capacity to make war and halving the size of the Russian economy look ridiculous in retrospect.
Russia meanwhile earned a record €93 billion (US$97 billion) from energy exports during the first 100 days of the war, a Finnish study concluded.
China and India, which refused to join Group of Seven sanctions against Russia, reportedly are buying oil at a discount of $30 to $40 per barrel, while American and European consumers are paying the full price $120 if they can find it.
Just a thought.
Inserection..
Capitol Police said Friday that officers detained seven unauthorized people in a congressional office building Thursday night and charged them with unlawful entry.
The people identified themselves as being affiliated with CBS' “Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press.
Capitol Police said they received a call about a disturbance in the Longworth House Office Building around 8:30 p.m. “Responding officers observed seven individuals, unescorted and without Congressional ID, in a sixth-floor hallway,” the agency said in a statement. “The building was closed to visitors, and these individuals were determined to be a part of a group that had been directed by the USCP to leave the building earlier in the day.”
The USCP statement said the case remains “an active criminal investigation, and may result in additional criminal charges.” Capitol Police.
This is a laissez faire type of service to the US Capital. Just an "Inserection" thought.
Subrime..
The Great Recession was a period of marked general decline, i.e. a recession, observed in national economies globally that occurred between 2007 and 2009.
The causes of the Great Recession began with the bursting of the United States housing bubble in 2005–2012. Homeowners began to abandon their mortgages, the value of mortgage-backed securities held by investment banks declined, causing several to collapse or be bailed out in September 2008. This 2007–2008.
The combination of banks unable to provide funds to businesses, and homeowners paying down debt rather than borrowing and spending, resulted in the Great Recession that began in the U.S. officially in December 2007 and lasted until June 2009, thus extending over 19 months.
As with most other recessions, it appears that no known formal theoretical or empirical model was able to accurately predict the advance of this recession.
Housing- Banks, Stock Market, Unemployment. Is this happening again in 2022?
Just a thought.
