| 210412 | 2004-01-28 02:35:00 | The pcw editorial staff = 1 female (the asst. editor) / 3 males. The designers and, afask 100% of the contributing staff are also male! The IT/Web dept consists of 1 female (me) / 5 males. We're definately outnumbered :o) |

| 210416 | 2004-01-28 02:57:00 | Dear Friends, It is important for men to remember that as women grow older it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as they did when they were younger . When men notice this, they should try not to yell . Let me relate how I handle the situation . When I got laid off from my consulting job and took "early retirement" in March, it became necessary for Susan to get a full-time job, both for the extra income and for the health benefits that we need . It was shortly after she started working that I noticed that she was beginning to show her age . I usually get home from fishing and hunting about the same time that she gets home from work . Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always says that she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts supper . I try not to yell, instead I tell her to take her time and just wake me when she finally does get supper on the table . She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating . It is now not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after supper . I do what I can by reminding her several times each evening that they aren't cleaning themselves . I know she appreciates this, as it does seem to help her get them done before she goes to bed . Now that she is older, she seems to get tired so much more quickly . Our washer and dryer are in the basement . Sometimes she says she just can't make another trip down those steps . I don't make a big issue of this . As long as she finishes up the laundry the next evening, I am willing to overlook it . Not only that, but unless I need something ironed to wear to the Monday lodge meeting or to Wednesday's or Saturday's poker game club or Tuesday's or Thursday's bowling or something like that, I will tell her to wait until the next evening to do the ironing . This gives her a little more time to do some of the odds and ends things like shampooing the dog, vacuuming or dusting . Also, if I have a really good day of fishing, this allows her to gut and scale the fish at a more leisurely pace . Susan is starting to complain a little occasionally . For example, she will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the monthly bills on her lunch hour . In spite of her complaining, I continue to offer encouragement . I tell her to stretch it out over two or three days . That way she won't have to rush so much . I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then won't hurt her any, if you know what I mean . When doing simple jobs she seems to think she needs more rest periods . She had to take a break when she was only half finished mowing the yard . I try not to embarrass her when she needs these little rest breaks . I tell her to fix a big, cold glass of freshly squeezed lemonade and sit for a while . I tell her that as long as she is making one for herself, she may as well make one for me and take her break by the hammock so she can talk with me until I fall asleep . I know that I probably look like a Saint in the way that I support Susan on a daily basis . I'm not saying that the ability to show this much consideration is easy . Many men will find it difficult . Some will find it impossible . No one knows better than I do how frustrating women can become as they get older . However, guys, even if you just yell at your wife a little less often because of this article, I will consider that writing it was worthwhile . Signed, Bob > Bob's funeral was on Saturday, April 26th . > Susan was acquitted Monday, April 28th |

| 210419 | 2004-01-28 05:31:00 | Just nod . Or put a smile on your face and keep walking . I always feel it's necessary to explain myself, for i am young and naive, and at 15 years know not much . But that's a good point . Thanks :D ----------- I'm surprised albatross actually hasn't come back and imploded actually, but i guess it may be for the better . . . (hides behind couch) Now i will reiterate my misunderstood point: Women don't need to come one these forums, for they use their superior wit and power to command their male slaves to do so . ----------- I'm quite glad we've moved away from that dell, as i never liked em . Sure, it's cheap, it'll get the job done, but c'mon, an investment like that would need something good and lasting . . . . Or you could commit social suicide (*presumes the whole world revolves around his close circle of friends, which is mainly influenced by him) And as for the rest . . . BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH :D |
