For all you guys out there who just can't figure it out, here it is:

In the world of romance, one single rule applies: Make the woman happy.

Thanksgiving Weather Report
From: Traci Walter

Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.

During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce creates slippery spots on the other. Please pass the gravy.

A weight watch and indigestion warning have been issued for the entire area, with increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening, the turkey will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of 34F in the refrigerator.

Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50 percent chance of scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low as the only wish left will be the bone.

Stray Thoughts
From: Nathan Cady

Life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time, all your weekends, and what do you get in the end? I think that the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live for twenty years in an old-age home. You get kicked out when you're too young. You get a gold watch; you go to work. You work for forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You go to college. You party until you're ready for high school. Then you go to grade school. You become a little kid. You play. You have no responsibilities. You become a little baby, you go back to the womb. You spend your last nine months floating. And then you finish up as twinkle in somebody's eye.

LABOR PAINS
From: Jaina Ford - Fort Worth, Texas

A married couple went to the hospital together to have their baby delivered. Upon their arrival, the doctor said he had invented a new machine that would transfer a portion of the mother's labor pain to the father. He asked if they were willing to try it out. They were both very much in favor of it. The doctor set the knob to 10 percent for starters, explaining that even 10 percent was probably more pain than the father had ever experienced before .... but as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine, so he asked the doctor to go ahead and bump it up a notch. The doctor then adjusted the machine for 20 percent transfer. The husband was still feeling fine so the doctor checked the husband's blood pressure and was amazed at how well he was doing. At this, they decided to go for 50 percent. The husband continued to feel quite well. Since it was obviously helping out his wife considerably, he encouraged the doctor to transfer all the pain to him. The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain ..... she and her husband were overjoyed .... when they got home, they found the mailman dead on their front porch.

NEW SCIENTIFIC THEORIES
From: Jaina Ford - Fort Worth, Texas

WINNING ENTRIES FROM A RECENT CONTEST FOR "NEW SCIENTIFIC THEORIES"

3rd RUNNER UP -- The quantity of consonants in the English language is absolutely constant. If 20 consonants are omitted in one geographic area, they turn up in another. When a Bostonian "pahks his cah," the lost r's migrate southwest, causing a Texan to "warsh his car and invest in erl wells.

"2ND RUNNER UP-- The "Why Yawning Is Contagious" theory. You yawn to equalize the pressure on your eardrums. This pressure change outside your eardrums unbalance other people's ear pressures, so then they must yawn.

1ST RUNNER UP-- If an infinite number of rednecks riding in an infinite number of pickup trucks fire an infinite number of shotgun rounds at an infinite number of highway signs, they will eventually produce all the world's great literary works in Braille.

GRAND PRIZE WINNER - When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet; and when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. Therefore, I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat. When dropped, the two will hover, spinning inches above the ground, probably into eternity. A "buttered cat array" could replace pneumatic tires on cars and trucks, and "giant buttered cat arrays" could easily allow a high-speed monorail linking New York with Chicago.
