Hey, remember when you'd get together with your girlfriends in 2nd or 3rd grade and had a fort with a sign that said "no boys allowed"? My friend, Sally and I had a place like that in her house. I thought since there was a football thread, we'd have one just for us. Here's some stuff that was sent to me:

OK gals it's time for some men put downs.

What do you call a handcuffed man?

Trustworthy.

Why do only 10% of men make it to heaven?

Because if they all went, it would be Hell.

Why do men like smart women?

Opposites attract.

How do men define a "50/50" relationship?

We cook - they eat. We clean - they dirty. We iron - they wrinkle.

All he's concerned with is legs, breasts and thighs.

A woman to show him how to work it.

What's a man's idea of honesty in a relationship?

Telling you his real name.

What's the best way to force a man to do sit ups?

Put the remote control between his toes.

What's the difference between Big Foot and an intelligent man?

Big Foot's been spotted several times.

What's the smartest thing a man can say?

"My wife says..."

Why are all dumb blonde jokes one liners?

So men can understand them.

Why did God create man before woman?

Because you're always supposed to have a rough draft before creating your masterpiece.

Why do female black widow spiders kill the males after mating?

To stop the snoring before it starts.

Why is psychoanalysis a lot quicker for men than for women?

This ought to fan the flames!!!

Had to fight back Kitty.

How many men does it take to open a beer?

None. It should be opened by the time she brings it.

Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to pick up women?

Because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will

never be able to support you.

Why do women have smaller feet than men?

So they can stand closer to the kitchen sink.

How do you know when a woman is about to say something smart?

When she starts her sentence with "A man once told me..."

How do you fix a woman's watch? You don't. There's a clock on the oven.

Why do men pass more gas than women?

Because women won't shut up long enough to build up pressure.

Women are like guns, keep one around long enough and your

gonna to want too shoot it.

If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling

at the front door, who do you let in first?

The dog of course...at least he'll shut up after you let him in.

All wives are alike, but they have different faces so you

can tell them apart.

What's worse than a Male Chauvinist Pig? A woman that won't do what she's told.

I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her first name was Always.

I haven't spoken to my wife for 18 months - I don't like to interrupt her.

What do you call a woman who has lost 95% of her intelligence? Divorced.

Bigamy is having one wife too many. Some say monogamy is the same.

Scientists have discovered a food that diminishes a woman's sex drive by

Marriage is a 3-ring circus: Engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering.

The last fight was my fault. My wife asked, "What's on the TV?" I said "Dust!"

My wife and I are inseparable. In fact, last week in took four state

troopers and a dog.

Why do men die before their wives? They want to.

What is the difference between a dog and a fox? About five drinks.

A beggar walked up to a well-dressed woman shopping on Rodeo Drive and said, "I haven't eaten in four days." She looked at him and said,

"God, I wish I had your willpower."

Do you know the punishment for bigamy? Two mothers-in-law.

Young Son: Is it true, Dad, I heard that in some parts of Africa a man

doesn't know his wife until he marries her?

Dad: That happens in every country, son.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Touche, Onlooker! LOL!! Especially the 3-ring line!!



Married-Too-Long email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
What do you tell a woman with two black eyes? Nothing. You already told her twice.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Now THAT was bad!!!!

Webman, I tried to send you something(s) this morning, but they returned to me. Guess I'll try the arbley address, though I thought that was the one I sent it to. If at first you don't succeed....



DOM email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
I am a man...a very well endowed man. So I guess I'll post here.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
If this is true, DOM, you're always welcome! However, I'm guessing you're just being boastful.



onlooker email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001

ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT DOM? SCAREY.



onlooker email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
TWO-Z, ouch, that one hurt. And I mean your post!!



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Onlooker, that was funny, 'cause it had better have one of those attributes, and if it doesn't have either, well, you're screwed...but in this case, probably not!!



Falcon Edie email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Personally, I like lawyer jokes--

What do you have when you have a lawyer stuck in shit up to his neck? Not enough shit.

Why don't sharks bite lawyers? Professional courtesy.



webman email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
What do you call three lawyers at the bottom of Lake Superior? A good start.

How do you tell the difference between lawyers in a Corvette and a porcupine? A porcupine has the pricks on the outside.



Skipper email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
The warden can't wrestle but you ought to see her box....she will kill me for that one....



Drifter email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Sounds like you haven't seen it for quite some time, Skipper!!!



tailspin email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
Men are like laxatives....they irritate the shit out of you.

Men are like bananas...the older they are the less firm they become.

Men are like vacations...they never seem to be long enough.

Men are like coffee...the best ones are warm, rich and can keep you up all night long.

Men are like lava lamps...fun to look at but not very bright.

Did I do good Kitty?



DOM email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
It's great being a man. We can fart in public and even be proud to take credit for it. Though I wouldn't mind being a woman for one day. I would get a vibrator for seventeen dollars at an auction like Trixie, lock myself in a room and go to town. BZZZZZZZZ.......



hap email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-10-2001
I now have two offspring wondering why their mom has totally lost it - staring at the monitor - laughing at it. It's true what they say about laughter being contagious - they're both laughing and have no idea what's so funny.

A strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he could

outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of

Morris, one of the older workmen. After several minutes, Morris had enough.

"Why don't you put your money where your mouth is?" he said. "I will bet a

week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that

building that you won't be able to wheel back."

"You're on, old man," the braggart replied. "It's a bet! Let's see what you

got."

Morris reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then,

nodding to the young man, he said, "All right. Get in."



onlooker email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
Here is one for the girls:

A woman came home just in time to find her husband in bed with another

woman.

With superhuman strength borne of fury, she dragged her husband down the

stairs to the garage and put his penis in a vise. She then secured it

tightly and removed the handle. Next she picked up a hacksaw.

The husband, terrified, screamed, "Stop! Stop! You're not going

to......to....cut it off are you?!"

The wife, with a gleam of revenge in her eye,said, "Nope. You are. I'm going

to set the garage on fire!"

I get more and more sick to my stomach as I keep thinking about it. God, the death toll must be devastating.



TWO-Z email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
THIS IS A SAD DAY. UNBELIVEABLE.



happy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
I fear for my sons 18 and 21 years young - We've not needed the tools to prepare our children for this - how do you prepare them now?



happy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
Surely there is something else I can do besides just pray, isn't there?



webman email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
We are sort of a police state here. There are people getting in fights at gas stations. At 5pm today the police halted all gas sales in the town next to us. I will not venture out to a grocery store if I can help it. I hoped I would never see the day, but this is all like a Tom Clancy novel come to life. I must say it is one big fucking disaster.

Be safe everyone.



tailspin email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
No fighting at the pumps yet here. I did hear gas in some parts of the U.S. is already up over $3 a gallon. I hear you Happy. I'm trying to figure out how to explain this whole bit of insanity to my children. I keep hoping its another Orson Wells radio show where its only make-believe and it just sounds real. Sadly, I don't think thats going to be the case. Hold your special people close tonight.



Skipper email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
This is unreal, the devestation is immense, we have to find out who did this, we can't fuck around with these pussies anymore, the rest of the world better be behind us on this call also!



Torggy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-11-2001
Have you seen the Arab world celebrating? Even if they are not involved in this it is time to cut our dependace on theit oil. They take our money, yours and mine, then use it to kill us. We need to use our own resourses and get shed of those bastards.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Morning, everyone. The scenes shown before us on the tv screen have been surreal. All I can think about are the lives that have been extinguished and the grieving family members and friends. We all are forever changed by this.

On the homefront, my son called from town last night around 7 and told me to fill up my tank, now. The lines at our single gas station in town were about 15 cars deep in both directions. My neighbor and I high-tailed it to a little Mom and Pop station 15 minutes away-no lines, $1.79/gallon. By the time we filled up, it was 4 cars deep. I feel guilty & stupid for participating in what appears to be a gas panic.

Torggy and Skipper, you hit the nail on the head. I just heard something on tv this morning about drilling in the Great Lakes- what timing for bringing this up again. We've got plenty of oil in Alaska and in the Gulf of Mexico, lets drill there (where it's already being drilled), where we won't risk harm to our greatest resource, fresh water. But first, lets get these sob's for what they've done to precious human life!!



Fred email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
I, too, have been watching with amazement the events of the past 24 hours. I have found myself in tears several times as the reality of the death and destruction are shown on TV. My prayers go out to greiving family and friends and also to the thousands of volunteers who are trying to save lives. Peace be with you all.



Torggy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
I am not a real religious person but I find myself reciting the Lords prayer over and over.



Nugget email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
My son is 11. I try to prepare him for a world that is at the same time beautiful and brutal. Yesterday I left work early to meet him at the house so that we could talk and share thoughts. Then, as I always do, I took him with me to vote. I told him that it is important, as I always tell him, to participate with vigor and joy in the democratic process. I talked about how important it is to give blood to the Red Cross on a regular basis, not just during a crisis. I spoke with him about our fragile humanity, and how we have to support each other every day. We talked about the different responses people have, from overwhelming the Red Cross with donations and with fights over gasoline before the price could even move. We then walked back to the house and quietly lowered the flag to half staff. We continued to talk about why people in other lands might hate the United States and just how complicated these issues are. How wrong it is to take human life, but recognizing too that a country must defend itself. We talked of the probability of war, but also of the importance of returning to 'normal' as much as we could in an attempt to deny these madmen from their goal of knocking us all off track. We then knelt and said a quiet prayer for our president and the men and women who advise him, and for the miltary personnel who must conduct the strikes that most certainly will come. And we said a prayer for our people, and for our country. And deep inside, where I don't let him see, I cry with the anguish of a father who knows his son's world has forever changed, and uttered my own private prayer that he will use his life and gifts to make it a better place.



Fred email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Nugget, how fortunate your son is to have a father like you. Thank you for sharing your personal experiences. Your words rang with a truth, eloquence, and emotion that we can all take to heart.

As the dust begins to settle on this tragic series of events, I am humbled by the countless humanitarian efforts that are starting to be reported. I am also humbled by the fact that the value of human life is a very precious thing. I hate that it takes a tragedy like this to remind me of it.



happy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Don't know who you guys are i.e. Nugget, Fred (got your number though, Torgg, my friend), but I find the compassion and emotion that you have shared with us to be totally awesome.. We have some very fine men in our 'lil domain here....We women already know that we're nothing less than perfect - so I didn't feel the need to address each one individually, ok?ok.



Nugget email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Fred, your words ring the same way...and thanks Happy.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Nugget, if your wife ever leaves you, can I marry you?



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Oops...I just remembered you're seperated. Um, scratch that last post. ~open mouth, exchange feet, after wiping egg off face~



happy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
ah, Kitty, I didn't hear any egg on your face!



Nugget email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Kitty, that was sure fun...you paint quite a picture.



Fred email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Happy, since I know a few of the people in this group, and they know me, I forget that my moniker might be misleading...I am in fact a female. Fred was a nickname given to me my Capt. America back in high school when we golfed together. Sorry for the confusion , and I appreciated your kind words.



Kitty email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Fred, I had my suspicions by the way you write and the things you've said, so thanks for the heads up...I'd hate to have to switch those feet again!



happy email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
Fred - I'm sure you weren't misleading...that's what I get for assuming!!! I did feel a bit better knowing Kitty wasn't sure either, though....

I hope all are coping with our nation's tragedy..I seem to feel guilty because I did wake up this morning, and my routine was pretty much the same. I went to work, I came home (I almost ran out of gas ... I am one stubborn norwegian ....to a fault; I would have run out of gas and walked before I paid or stayed in line.....oh, I'd have REALLY been a happy camper if that had been the case, right? yah, right.); I turned on the t.v. - and there it still was - it didn't go away. Realty. Sux sometimes, ya know?



TWC email icqRe: No Boys Allowed!!09-12-2001
I have been grappling with this for two days. Maybe I'm a little more vulnerable now with the recent passing of my dad, but at times I just ache, especially for the firemen and cops who died trying to save others. There could be no more noble pursuit.

I will now spend Friday and Saturday at football games - high school and college. I cannot express deeply enough the feeling that I don't want to be there and I don't think anybody else should be either. The rationales are that games will be a) theraputic and b) proof that we won't give in to terrorists. What bullshit. The NFL played games after JFK's death and to this day, the league is condemned for doing it. Given the way it still ripples through our country 38 years later, I can't believe anyone would consider a football game "theraputic".

As for the terriorist argument, I would suggest that this is not the time to concerned with what they "think." We should be thinking, about the dead still buried in the rubble, about where we are headed as a country in the days ahead. That is what we should be thinking about this weekend, and I'll guarantee you, no one will do it at a football game, no matter how many moments of silence there are.

I spent a lot of time hoping our leaders approach the days and weeks ahead with wisdom and patience. I fear that will be very difficult to do. God help them. God help them all.
