If you want to know just how effective the mainstream media is, it is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest President ever. If any Democrat is elected, ALL of them say they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the people that fall into the categories above can’t wait for it to happen. This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don’t even know what happened.
AmusingComments Off on Men Rules: The Guy’s Side Of The Story
Feb202008
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down. Finally, the guys’ side of the story (I must admit, it’s pretty good). We always hear “the rules” From the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules!
Please note… these are all numbered “1” ON PURPOSE!
1 Learn to work the toilet seat. You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down.
1. Sometimes, we are not thinking about you. Live with it.
1. Shopping is NOT a sport, and no, we are never going to think of it that way.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. 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!
1. We don’t remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on a calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. 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.
1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
1. Check your oil! . Please.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
1. If you won’t dress like the Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
1. Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it’s genetic.
1. 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.
1. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. Get over it.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.
1. 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.

Feb202008
If you’re like I am, when it comes to extra money in your pocket, then you can bet I want to know more. So here are the details along with a handy calculator to see how much you’re getting back.
The Economic Stimulus Package recently passed Congress, and tax rebate checks will be sent out late spring or early summer.
The Basics for Tax Rebate Checks · Most single taxpayers will get a rebate of $600. · Most married couples who file jointly will get $1,200. · Plus, you’ll get an extra $300 for each child under age 17 for whom you claim a child credit on your 2007 return. · Low income seniors and disabled veterans (and their widows) who don’t owe enough income tax to qualify for the full rebate can qualify for checks of $300, or $600 if they filed joint returns.
These checks will be sent automatically, so no application form is necessary, as 2007 income will be used. The calculator below can be used to find out how much your rebate should be:
