"Smart" A Poem by Shel Silverstein
My dad gave me one dollar bill
'Cause I'm his smartest son,
And I swapped it for two shinny quarters
'Cause two is more than one!
And then I took the quarters
And traded them to Lou
For three dimes- I guess he didn't know
That three is more than two!
Just then, along came old blind Bates
And cause he couldn't see
He gave me four nickels for three dimes,
And four is more than three!
And I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs
Down at he seed-feed store,
And the fool gave me five pennies for them,
And five is more than four!
And then I went and showed my dad,
And he got red in the cheeks
And closed his eyes and shook his head-
Too proud of me to speak!
:-D ;-)

they're equivalent. So perhaps boys say vast words to make a element yet ladies prefer to make their element too whether it does not take 2hr and 30 minutes yet even though boys could be lazy and procrastinate yet some boys are clever sufficient to get there artwork completed.and woman procrastinate too yet they the two can use there brains.

Yep you summed it up babe. Women got the brains and the looks all we got was the brawn. Not much to look forward to eh? ;-)

Haha how funny! Then, assuming if the boy represents the whole male population, boys must not be very smart
