Unsuccessfully criticizing hubby's driving skills on a wet slippery road, I
gave up, raised my hands, and declared, "FINE THEN! You're the MAN! You're
the MAN!"

I can't believe what he yelled back:

"THAT'S RIGHT - I'M THE MAN AND YOU'RE THE WOMAN!"

As if I didn't know that! LOL

<sigh>

The mechanics of the male mind never ceases to amaze me.

Not sure why you think of me something apart from
other men, in general...but...

>The mechanics of the male mind never ceases to amaze me.

Do you and hubby always agree with one another?
Sounds as if you guys were meant to be married...
to one another!

BTW, do you keep a cat, or cats?

Look, just buy him a bigger car than that AMC Pacer you got for him
and he might calm down. A Caddy Fleetwood should do the trick. Who
knows? He might even let you drive on occassion ;-)

Just curious if it would be a totally "black" cat?
Wondering if "black and white" cats are verbotin?
Sorry for the trivial puruit - carryover from the
other thread on "Whistler's Mammy!"

Hey...I'm grinning all over, "Mammy, how I luv ya,
how I luv ya, my dear old Mammy..."

Well yes then, I have a few cats as a matter of fact.

One is black with white paws whom we named, "Hitler" (karmic-ally speaking).
The irony seems to keep him in his place. One is gray-ish white - whom we
named "Honkey Dory" because it sounds funny coming out of our mouths. And
then of course, there's "Red Neck" - literally has a red patch on her
neck...

Got any more stupid questions?

Wow! You know I never knew the history behind that expression, but my mother
would say it all the time when I was a child. The dictionary spells it as,
"hunkey-dory" and defines it as being "satisfactory or in satisfactory
condition". Jeez - we would be in the grocery store and I swear, that's ALL
she would say. "Oh this (display of food) looks just honkey dory!" "Ain't
that just honkey dory?!" "Yup, (looking at white male cashier) this will be
just honkey dory!"

I hope to God you're wrong on that history.

Oh Good Lord - things like that are *never* taught in black history class!!

>right along with the history of

No - I'm afraid to ask but curiosity wins over. What in the world is the
history behind that??

>ironic you learning
>this from a white irish boy.

Actually I'm quite used to it. Every once in a while I have to ask my white
husband what the hell somebody means when they use a new expression of
slang. For instance just the other day I didn't know what a "wigger" was.
But he knew. He knew because he has one of them in his family.

My question to you is how YOU know such things?!?!

Eh. Fuck that cat.

im the pretentious world traveller, self educating himself in the many
cultures of the world. i fly cheap and drink rich. i currently reside
in the states, florida of all. i have to live near the ocean. there
are plent of wiggers here, i do not know how americans tolerate the
ilegall mexicans here. they are like a large breed of cock roach. its
much like the pakis in the uk, they feel entitled to be there but do
not wish to accept our way of life, rather they would prefer to kill
their daughters in what they percieve as honor killings. i am going to
try antwerp next. its kind of central to many things i like,
especially bastogne. pretentious enough for you?

Try "honky-tonk" - as in Honky-Tonk Woman. (Mick Jaggers)

"Honkies" are mostly found in honky-tonks.

Male Honkies suffer the Honky-Tonk Blues too, often
as a direct result of spending the night with
a honky-tonk woman! (Hank Williams)

Ain't now honky-tonk Mammies though...sorry!

S$#@! I forgot - I owe you a funny. Also got an old abstract I did in
college to show you - I can't believe it - that thing won 3rd place in a
student show and I was trying to be smart-ass when I did it!

I'll be 'beck.' - but gimmie a few days for the 'funny'.

Well I can't find it!! I had a copy but I lost it. Don't know who has the
original either. Dammit.

Never-the-less, the story behind it is that I submitted two pics for the
show... (1) a realistic arrangement of pencils, brushes, and crayons, and
(2) that abstract. That abstract was my way of getting back at my instructor
for criticising inadequate contrast in my earlier drawings. He didn't say
that even though I knew that's what he meant. He said I needed to "focus" my
work, which didn't make any sense at the time because we were drawing a
still life consisting of a block, a cone, and a sphere. Surely he meant to
add contrast {clarity, etc.}. There was nothing of interest to me to focus
in on at the time. It was a boring still life done on newsprint for God's
sake.

So for the next still life, I decided to fix his butt good and focus on some
cloth we had to draw. I brought in *real* drawing paper, used charcoal
instead of pencil, and I focused and focused and focused all the way down to
a 1 inch x 1 inch square of a good 15 foot of cloth! So while everyone else
drew the cloth's elongated folds and drapes, I drew a blown up portion of a
few tiny creases. (something like this:
http://www.rcip.com/nerdgerl/sample.jpg) And I think it pissed him off cause
he rolled his eyes at me.

Whatever. When I walked up to get my 3rd place award, I made sure he saw me
jerk my neck and roll my eyes right back at his ass! He gave me a D+ for
that class!

Surprisingly to me, the pencils, brushes, and crayons drawing
http://www.rcip.com/nerdgerl/pencils.jpg that I hung in the show wasn't even
noticed. I did that in a class that I hardly showed up in, so the picture
was my apology to the instructor for not attending like I should have. I
think I was in that classroom for 50% of the lessons and I got an A+ in that
one!

Go Figure.
