  WHY MEN ARE SELDOM DEPRESSED:

  Men Are Just Happier People -- What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park. Car mechanics tell you the truth. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness. If someone forgets to invite you, He or she can still be your friend. Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.. Everything on your face stays its original color.. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades. You only have to shave your face and neck. You can play with toys all your life. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.. You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives On December 24 in 25 minutes. No wonder men are happier. Send this to the women who can handle it And to the men who will enjoy reading it. Men Are Just Happier People 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, Bubba and Wildman . 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. 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! SO, send this to the women who have a sense of humor and who can handle it .... and to the men who will enjoy reading it..

  So men don't ever have to repeat, 'righty, tighty/lefty, loosie' when using a screwdriver??

  Well, it's common knowledge that the Panzer IV, Panther and Tiger tanks were superior to the American Sherman, English Churchill and Russian T-34, though as history shows, sheer numbers won out the day.

  And no tec, we don't need such sayings; these things are hardwired ;)

  LOL... Never too tired for sex (that toolbox is never closed), never had to use the Hefty Lefty / Righty Tighty thingy... and always knows his woman is the gorgeous bomb that he married.

  If anyone would try to apply this to me, thinking I'm a typical male, I'd have to call it bullshit! I'm not simple and, yes, I am constantly depressed...

  Hah, ha!!

  Good one!!

  But unfortunately these two:

  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.

  Tend to be true because women still are only paid 2/3 of men in the same line of work...

  LOL... Zid, reread it again. "A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need but it's on sale."

  This is some funny stuff...

  HAH!!!

  Tammy, that reminds me of an absolutely hilarious sea-farin' story!!!

  Seems there was this Admiral in the Royal Navy who was approaching retirement. He'd had a fabulous career; never lost a battle and rarely lost a man.

  He had one odd habit, however....

  Every day, when he arose, he went to a small drawer in his bureau, opened it, and pulled out a piece of paper. He carefully read it, then placed the piece of paper back in the drawer, and went up to the bridge.

  Naturally, all his junior naval officers were DYING to find out what special words of wisdom and/or inspiration were on that piece of paper, to promote such an illustrious career... And British naval etiquette being what it was, no officer would DARE to transgress the Admiral's privacy to snoop...

  However...

  After the Admiral retired, there was a general stampede to his former quarters. The ranking junior officer pulled open that special little drawer, and found a carefully folded piece of paper.

  He unfolded it, and read:

  "Starboard is right, port is left..."

  Whoops!!!

  Yeah, Sam, I didn't notice that the first time thru... Of course, there's no such THING as "doesn't need" when it comes to a FABRIC sale!!!
