BARBECUING It's the only type of cooking a "real man" will do. When a man volunteers to do the "BBQ" the following chain of events are put into motion: 1) The woman goes to the store. 2) The woman fixes the salad, vegetables, and dessert. 3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill. 4) The man places the meat on the grill. 5) The woman goes inside to set the table and check the veggies. 6) The woman goes outside to tell the man that the meat is burning. 7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman. 8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table. 9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes. 10) Everyone praises the man and thanks him for his cooking efforts. 11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off". And upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women. Hillbilly Herman James enlisted in the Army and on the first day as an enlisted man he was given a comb. The following day the Army barber sheared all of his hair off. On the third day the Army gave him a tooth brush. On the fourth day the Army dentist yanked several of his teeth out. On the fifth day he was given a jock strap, that afternoon Herman went AWOL. ![]() "Is it time for that summer outfit?" The graveside service just barely finished, when there was massive clap of thunder, followed by a tremendous bolt of lightning, accompanied by even more thunder rumbling in the distance. The little old man looked at the pastor and calmly said, 'Well, she's there.' LANGUAGE OF MEN -- WHAT THEY MEAN WHEN THEY SAY... "I'M GOING FISHING." Means: "I'm going to drink myself dangerously stupid, pee in the bushes, eat disgusting mystery meat from a can, and stand by a stream with a stick in my hand while the fish swim by in complete safety." "IT'S A GUY THING." Means: "There is no rational thought pattern connected with it, and you have no chance at all of making it logical." ' "CAN I HELP WITH DINNER?" Means: "Why isn't it already on the table?" "UH HUH," "SURE, HONEY," OR "YES, DEAR ..." Means: Absolutely nothing. It's a conditioned response. "IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO EXPLAIN." Means: "I have no idea how it works." "I WAS LISTENING TO YOU. IT'S JUST THAT I HAVE THINGS ON MY MIND." Means: "I was wondering if that blonde over there is wearing a bra." Friendship among Women... A woman didn't come home one night. The next morning she told her husband that she had slept over at a friend's house. The man called his wife's 10 best friends. None of them knew anything about it.

A Beer Study: Yesterday scientists for Health Canada suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should take a look at their beer consumption. The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women. To test the theory, 100 men were fed 6 pints of beer each within a one hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when wrong. No further testing is planned. ![]() "I could go for a good German beer right now." DOCTORS... Let me tell you about my doctor. He is very good. If you tell him you want a second opinion, he will go out and come in again. While he was talking to me his nurse came in and said, "Doctor, there is a man here who thinks he is invisible." The doctor said, "Tell him I can't see him." Another time a man came running in the office and yelled, "Doctor, doctor, my son just swallowed a roll of film." The doctor calmly replied, "Let's just wait and see what develops." One patient came in and said, "Doctor, I have a serious memory problem." The doctor asked, "When did it start? " The man replied, "When did what start?" I remember one time I told my doctor I had a ringing in my ears. His advice: "Don't answer it." My doctor sure has his share of nut cases. One said to him, "Doctor, I think I'm a bell." The doctor gave him some pills and said, "Here, take these. If they don't work, give me a ring." Another guy told the doctor that he thought he was a deck of cards. The doctor simply said, "Go sit over there. I'll deal with you later." When I told my doctor I broke my leg in two places, he told me to stop going to those places. You know, doctors can be so frustrating. You wait a month and a half for an appointment, and he says, "I wish you had come to me sooner." ![]() "Now I could use some aspirin!"

Your imaginary friend has more money than you.
