He's inside a store's ventilator shaft yet he's an "alleged" burglar.

He might have lost a contact and was looking for it in there!

The Purse

As the bus pulled away, I realized I had left my purse under the seat. Later I called the company and was relieved that the driver had found my bag.

When I went to pick it up, several off-duty bus drivers surrounded me. One man handed me my pocketbook, two typewritten pages and a box containing the contents of my purse.

"We're required to inventory lost wallets and purses," he explained. "I think you'll find everything there."

As I started to put my belongings back into the pocketbook, the man continued, "I hope you don't mind if we watch. Even though we all tried, none of us could fit everything into your purse. And we'd like to see just HOW you do it."

To: PaulaB
My lovely wife reminded me of this, just this week. I do some things, she just does them better..... It's in the genes I think, please ladies don't clog the server trying to post all at once... A matter of fact, if you look, there is probably a chapter or two in PaulaB's book about the whole thingy... :-)

As a senior at St. Cloud State University in Minnesota, I often engage women psychology majors in heated discussions about male-female relationships.

Once, my friend Shelly and I got into a hot debate about whether men or women make the larger sacrifice of their respective gender characteristics when they get married. To my surprise, Shelly agreed with me that men give up far more than women.

"You're right, Steve," she said. "Men generally give up doing their cleaning, their cooking, their grocery shopping, their laundry."
