As expected, the frequency of posts have diminished over a period of time due to excessive Olympic action and a thorough lack of creativity on my part. The world has seen a few champions emerge from the Olympic Games. Just when we thought Michael Phelps’ 8 gold medals was already THE story of the games, Usain Bolt from Jamaica decided to spoil the party by being the first man ever to break both the 100 and 200 meter world records in the same Olympics. What was most astonishing was the manner in which he did it. I mean seriously, how on earth does somebody slow down in the last 10-15 meters, look left and right, thump his chest and still beat the 100 meter world record?? (9.69) In addition, after Michael Johnson blitzed the field in Atlanta 1996 to become the first man to win an Olympic 200 and 400 meter double, I think most people seriously never ever thought that the record would be broken this soon. Hope to see more of him in the years to come.
Oh and to sign off, here’s a funny e-mail….since women make most of the rules, I think it’s high time the men start to set some eh…
MAN Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down
We always hear ‘ the rules ’
From the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!
Please note.. these are all numbered ‘1 ‘
ON PURPOSE!
1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Sunday sports :
or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1.. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.
1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are.
Don’t ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one
1. You can either ask us to do something
Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials..
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT
1. ALL men see in only 16 colours, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A colour. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no
1. If it itches, it will
We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say ‘nothing,’ We will act like nothing’s wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, Expect an answer you don’t want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine…Really .
1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as Rugby , or Football,
or golf
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round
1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;
But did you know men really don’t mind that? It’s like camping.
Pass this to as many men as you can -
to give them a laugh.
Pass this to as many women as you can -
to give them a bigger laugh.
