Two military policemen were chasing a fleeing draftee from The military base.
The draftee ran into the courtyard of a convent where a nun was seated on a round bench beneath a tree quietly reading a book. He said to her "quick sister, please hide me I don't want to be Drafted and the MP's are chasing me!" She lifted up her skirts and said hide under my skirt.

The two policemen came By and asked if she had seen anyone. She replied "no".

After they left she told the young boy to come out all was OK He said you have a nice set of legs for a nun! She replied if you reach up a little farther you'll find a set of balls! I'm not going to be drafted either!

Why it is so cool to be a woman

We can get rid of leg hair without pretending that we do a lot of cycling/swimming or any other sport that would require aerodynamic legs.

We absently hum tunes from musicals without anyone being suspect of our sexuality.

When we buy a vibrator it is glamorous. When men buy a blow up doll it's pathetic.

Should we wake up looking like something the cat dragged in, we can fix it with cosmetics.

We can have partners that are years younger than us without being called dirty old perverts.

We can scare male bosses with mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.

Systems support men always return our calls, and are nice to us when we blow up our computers.

We know that Tetris is the computer game to end all games.

We got off the Titanic first.

Our boyfriend's clothes make us look elfin and gorgeous. They look like complete dorks in our clothes.

We have total control over our eyebrows.

We can be groupies. Male groupies are stalkers.

It's cool to be a daddy's girl. It's sad to be a mommy's boy.

We can cry to get out of speeding fines.

The thrill of surprising people by being good at darts... and pool... and football.

We live longer, so we can be cantankerous old biddies wearing inappropriate clothes and shouting at strangers... men die earlier so we get to cash in on the life insurance.

We know that games are fun, but don't believe there's a direct correlation between the size of our scores and the size of our... womanhood.

Taxis stop for us.

We get drunk quicker and cheaper.

We have no desire to arrange our possessions in alphabetical order. Ever.

We've never fancied a cartoon character or the central figure in a computer game.

It does not enhance our social standing to understand the inner workings of a 'ruck' (or any other football thing). But we look incredibly cool if we do.

We never recognize ourselves in aspects of Mr. Bean. Ever.

We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.

I have a very small bottle that is about 2 inches or less in length. It is somewhat round at the bottom and about 1 inch or so wide. The name "Baby Tears" is embossed right into the bottle. I have had it for a long time. Just looking for a general time period, or if there is someone out there who might know anything about the Baby Tears name on the bottle and what it was. Thanks...

Reading a question here earlier about what other freebees seniors are 'owed' by the government got me thinking about this because I'm not looking for anything from the gov but my Social Security, which is money I paid in.

But it seems to me one way the elderly could help and support one another would be to join together to form subsistence farms. There are small farms going to ruin all over this country, many to be had cheap.

No single SS check would buy one, but a dozen pooled would easily make payments while leaving a lot left. Pooling transportation would also save a bunch.

It's amazing how much food can be grown on 20 acres of land provided a person doesn't depend on it except for shelter and sustenance. A person can't live well on a single SS check. But a dozen checks and a dozen people working together to better their lots would be an entirely different matter.

I think it beats government handouts all to pieces.

What do you think?

On a Trans-Atlantic flight, a plane passes through a severe storm. The turbulence is awful, and things go from bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning.

One woman in particular loses it. Screaming,she stands up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die!" she wails. Then she yells, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable! No one has ever made me really feel like a woman! Well I've had it! Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN??"

For a moment there is silence. everyone has forgotten their own peril, and they all stare, riveted, at the desperate woman in the front of the plane. Then, a man stands up in the rear of the plane. "I can make you feel like a woman," he says. This tall, tanned and built guy with jet black eyes starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time.

No one moves. As this man approaches, the woman begins to get excited. He removes his shirt. Muscles ripple across his chest as he reaches her, and extends the arm holding his shirt to the trembling woman, and whispers: "Iron this."

One afternoon, a wealthy lawyer was riding in the back of his limousine when he saw two men eating grass by the roadside. He ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate.

"Why are you eating grass?" he asked one man.

"We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied.

"Oh, come along with me then."

"But sir, I have a wife with two children!"

"Bring them along! And you, come with us too!", he said to the other man.

"But sir, I have a wife with six children!" the second man answered.

"Bring them as well!"

They all climbed into the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limo. Once underway, one of the poor fellows says, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."

The lawyer replied, "No problem, the grass at my home is about two feet tall."

I think senior citizens should get more privileges from Govt. For example Medical care, Transport, Old age Homes etc. Can you suggest any other amenity to be provided for their welfare.

They do it every time! Put a film on then, halfway through, put the news on. For those of us that get up at 05.30 hrs, a film finishing at midnight is a No! No!
I know we could tape it but why should we have to? We should be able to watch a film in its entirety. Do you agree?

About the time you spend on here? Mine Does. I have tried to get him involved, he has his own sign in and Avatar and he knows where to look for my Q&A but he still has to have a go sometimes because he is jealous and he thinks I am being secretive.
I think it's all pretty sad because I have given him Carte Blanch to look at my Q&A to prove that everything is above board.
He also, probably wrongly, has access to my e-mails. All I am trying to do is stop the petty arguments but, I have ended up with no privacy.
If I had Privacy, I would have to access it privately which is impossible because he is home all day and I am not!
Should I just give up the computer?

I asked a question last night about my mother turning 60 and I have received wonderful and eye opening answers, thank you to all who took the time to answer.

My brother and I have been planing to buy a little house for our parents. For the past 35 years they have lived in a renting house and it has become too big and too expensive for them.

We want to do that well first because we love them and also because they worked so hard all their lives so we could go to University (both my parents only have a grade 6).

How would you feel if your children bought you a house? would you feel they're butting in your business, would you see it as charity or would you feel you're children doing it out of recognition and accept gladly?

They're so proud. We buy them airplane tickets to visit us and they have a hard time accepting them.
