    If you don’t know what you want, it’s probably sleep.

    How about the sheer stupidity of "it's always in the last place you look for it." Of course it is! Who the **** keeps looking after they found it. I can see it now:

    Not under the couch

    Not behind the TV

    Oh, here it is between the cushions

    Hmm..... Not by the fridge

    Not in my pocket

    A lesson learned from a college buddy:

    If you wake up only wearing her jeans and there is a broken light-bulb in your pocket and you can't remember anything, it is best to not ask what happened.
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    This is one that has always puzzled me....

    If a man says something....and there is no woman around....Is he still wrong?

    Shack,

    How long have you been married? How many daughters do you have?

    And that puzzles you??? You forget to take your pills today or what?

    The gum you're now chewing, which some one tossed in the salad bar dressing, would have to have been you're now previous favorite flavor.
