Chaucer was a pretty smart dude. And if you can get past the writing style Canterbury Tales is a wonderful insight into female thinking; such as it is....

Of course there is that great Jack Nicholson line from "As Good As It Gets":

"People ask me how I can write women so well. It's easy. I just think of a man and then take away all reason and accountability."

Or there's the Steve Martin line in the movie "Parenthood"

"Women have choices. Men have responsibilites."

Pick one. They're all pretty valid at one time or another.

But maybe I should have stopped with the Chaucer quote...

Best of luck figgering 'em out. Let me know when you have it. We'll put together a business plan and become rich beyond our wildest dreams.

LOL

Since you brought up Jack, here's his line from the "Witches of Eastwick", I always got a kick out of.

"Do you think God knew what He was doing when He created woman?

Huh?

No $# it. I really wanna know. Or do you think it was another one of His minor mistakes like tidal waves, earthquakes, FLOODS?

You think women are like that?

S'matter? You don't think God makes mistakes? Of course He does. We ALL make mistakes. Of course, when WE make mistakes they call it evil. When GOD makes mistakes, they call it... nature.

So whaddya think? Women... a mistake... or DID HE DO IT TO US ON PURPOSE? "

When I get altzheimers, I'll be reciting "The Prologue" to Canterbury Tales.

When I can't sleep or I want to empty my head, I recite, "Whan that April, with it's shore soote, the draught of March hath pierced to the rootes..." (Sorry, I can't spell in Middle English--heck! I can't spell in Modern English!)
