INTELLIGENCE IN A BOTTLE?
(STOCKHOLM) — A new Swedish clothes shop handed out free shampoo to customers at its opening — without realizing the bottles contained red toner. Bengt Svensson, owner of the shop in Ronneby, southern Sweden, said the mistake was likely to cost about 10,000 Swedish crowns ($1,220) with angry customers, particularly blondes, demanding payment for hairdressing bills. "We've paid out so much that we are demanding money back from the company that delivered the shampoo to us," Svensson told the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet Thursday. (Reuters)
Meanwhile, during that brief period, the average IQ of the country soared 50 points.

THIS WEEK'S OBLIGATORY BLONDE JOKE


This one New Yorker married himself a pretty blonde southern gal and brought her to the big city for the first time. When they first arrived he got them a hotel room and as they were laying in bed she looked over in the corner and saw a discarded condom, "Oh yuck!!" she proclaimed as she pointed it out to her new husband

As he craned his neck to see what it was he looked at her and asked, "What they don't use those things where you come from?"

"Yeah," she said, "but we don't skin 'em!"




THE RIGHT AND WRONG WAY TO ASK A MAN TO DO SOMETHING
(This Week's Selected Excerpts from
"Women Are from Bras, Men Are from Penus" --
A Survival Guide for Bypassing Communication
and Getting Even in Your Relationship)


How you ask a man to do something makes all the difference. Women think that a subtle nuance or slight turn of phrase will have no effect whatsoever on the resolve of their mucho-macho muscular moron. It does! Which is why you should always use "would you" and "will you" instead of "could you" and "can you". For example:

Do say: Would you take out the garbage?
Do not say: Could you get off your fat ass and do something around here? What am I, the fucking maid?

Do say: Would you like to have a menage-a-trois with our next door neighbor Betty?
Do not say: Could you learn how to perform oral sex on me so I don't have to have a lesbian affair with our next-door-neighbor, Betty.

Do say: Would you like to go out to a nice dinner Saturday night?
Do not say: could you please take me to any restaurant that doesn't have the words "burger", "king", or "happy meal" in their advertising.

Do say: Would you mind watching the kids while I take a night off with my girlfriends?
Do not say: Could you, just for one night, watch the kids you helped spawn — that I never get a break from — ever! I haven't seen my friends in so long we wear name tags to identify ourselves.

Do say: Would you take me to a movie this week?
Do not say: Could you prove to me you're not Velcroed to the couch and actually have the motor skills to take me to a motion picture? Something without Pamela Anderson in it.

Do say: Would you like me to listen to you talk about your day some more?
Do not say: Could you step up the filibuster, Sparky? Jeopardy is on in ten minutes.

Do say: Would you consider getting a vasectomy?
Do not say: Could you even imagine what it feels like taking birth control pills that make you feel like Attila the Hun one minute and Attila the Hun's evil twin the next minute? No? Then get your tubes tied or I'll have your dick snipped!

Do say: Would you like to take a vacation?
Do not say: Could you move out?

Do say: Would you get out of my life?
Do not say: Could you get out of my life?

Notice how different these two statements are. A man is much more likely to get out of your life if you say "would".

NEXT WEEK: What Men Are Thinking While A Woman Is Talking





KID STUFF
[Thanks to Sharon — The Book of Affirmations]

MY FOOTSTEPS?
An acquaintance of mine who is a physician told this story about her then-four-year-old daughter. On the way to preschool, the doctor had left her stethoscope on the car seat, and her little girl picked it up and began playing with it. "Be still, my heart," thought my friend, "my daughter wants to follow in my footsteps!"

Then the child spoke into the instrument: "Welcome to McDonald's. May I take your order?"

A WISE LITTLE GIRL
A certain little girl, when asked her name, would reply, "I'm Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter."

Her mother told her this was wrong, she must say, "I'm Jane Sugarbrown."
The Vicar spoke to her in Sunday School, and said, "Aren't you Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter?"
She replied, "I thought I was, but mother says I'm not."

TOO ROUGH
A little girl asked her mother, "Can I go outside and play with the boys?"

Her mother replied, "No, you can't play with the boys, they're too rough."

The little girl thought about it for a few moments and asked, "If I can find a smooth one, can I play with him?"

SO KEEP THE SINGING DOWN, OK?
A Sunday school teacher asked her little children, as they were on the way to church service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"

One bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."

THE PRESSED LEAF
A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with fascination, he looked at the old pages as he turned them. Then something fell out of the Bible and he picked up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that has been pressed in between pages. "Momma, look what I found," the boy called out.

"What have you got there, dear?" his mother asked.

With astonishment in the young boy's voice he answered: "It's Adam's clothes!!!"

THE SWEET SOUNDS OF LOVE

A young couple wander off to the bushes during a softball game on the outskirts of their small town and start necking. After awhile the guy abruptly stops.

"You know," he says, "we've been doing this for weeks now and I think it's time we had intercourse,"

"Well, maybe," she says, "but I'm a virgin and I heard it hurts. Besides, all those people in the field may hear us."

The boy pauses and then says, "Hmmm, well if it hurts start making cow sounds, and I'll stop. But if it feels good, start singing. That way no one will ever guess what we're
really doing!"

The girl agrees, so the two hastily take off their clothes and get down to business. Ten minutes later, everyone within a mile hears the following:

"Mooooooooo ..... Moooooooo ...... Moooooon Riverrrr....!"




SAVED PARROTS


A lady approaches her priest and tells him, "Father, I have a problem. I have two female talking parrots, but they only know how to say one thing."

"What do they say?" the priest inquired.

"They only know how to say, 'Hi, we're prostitutes. Want to have some fun?'"

"That's terrible!" the priest exclaimed, "But I have a solution to your problem. Bring your two female parrots over to my house and I will put them with my two male talking parrots whom I taught to pray and read the bible. My parrots will teach your parrots to stop saying that terrible phrase and your female parrots will learn to praise and worship."

"Thank you!" the woman responded.

The next day the woman brings her female parrots to the priest's house. His two male parrots are holding rosary beads and praying in their cage. The lady puts her two female parrots in with the male parrots. Immediately, the female parrots say, "Hi, we're prostitutes, want to have some fun?"

One male parrot looks over at the other male parrot and exclaims, "Put the beads away. Our prayers have been answered!"
