a new week.

okay...

sometimes i look at this blog and feel like it's just me rambling on for no good reason at all. i imagine all of you out there reading this saying, "what the hell is he going on about now?" (usually i'm imagining it's brian and so he does this in his very polite and cordial way, in his wicked awesome boston accent, but still..."what the hell is he going on about?!"...)

today's one of those days that i really don't feel that i've got much to say.

so i'll hit you with this email my friend bob sent me and i thought was funny (especially the last part...). you may have seen it before--many of these things make the rounds--but if not, enjoy...

sale.

ARGUMENTS
a. A woman has the last word in any argument.

b. A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing!

SO, send this to the women who have a sense of humour and who can
handle it, and to the men who will enjoy reading it.

Proof that Men Have Better Friends.

A woman didn't come home one night. The next morning she told her husband that she had slept over at a friend's house. The man called his wife's 10 best friends. None of them knew anything about it.

Friendship among Men:
