On Relationships: The lost art of pleasing a man
On Relationships: The lost art of pleasing a man: "The lost art of pleasing a man
Most women want to please a man at some level. Few women want to please a man completely and they try hard. An small number succeed. This post is especially for women that never thought about making pleasing their man an important part of their relationship or that want to but simply don't know how to do so. If you are such a woman, pay attention to this post and keep what I say in mind. If you aren't, read anyway and let me know what you think. If you are a man, read and take note of what you should be experiencing if you deserve it. Consider suggesting your woman to read this post. Not many guys had the luck of meeting a woman that knows how to treat a man. I did a few times, and I'll never forget."

United Press International - NewsTrack - Some telecommuters work in the nude: "Some telecommuters work in the nude
SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 5 (UPI) -- Some 10 percent of worldwide telecommuters wear nothing at all while working at home, finds a survey by the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based SonicWALL.
About 39 percent of respondents of both sexes said they wear sweats while working from home, but 12 percent of males and 7 percent of females wear nothing at all, according to a survey of 941 remote and mobile workers worldwide conducted by Insight Express and SonicWALL, a provider of integrated network security and productivity solutions.
Forty-four percent of women surveyed said they showered on work-at-home days, as opposed to 30 percent of men.
Seventy-six percent of the employees surveyed believe that working remotely from home is an aid to productivity and 61 percent are convinced that their managers agree with them.
More than half of the survey's respondents accessed the corporate network from home on a daily basis, with 86 percent logging in remotely several times a week."

Brain ... er ...food? Nuts for whales ...
The species of whale known as the Black Right Whale has 4kgs of brains and 1 tonne of testicles. If it thinks at all, we know what it is thinking about.

Killers The - Somebody Told Me LYRICS
Killers The - Somebody Told Me LYRICS:
"Breaking my back just to know your name
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink, you might miss
'Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight
Somebody told me you had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential, I've got potential
Ready let's roll onto something new
Takin' it's toll and I'm leaving without you
Ready let's roll onto something new
Anything goes but don't blink, you might miss
'Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight
Well, somebody told me you had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential, I've got potential a rushin' a rushin' around
Pace yourself for me
I said maybe, baby, please
But I just don't know now
When all I wanna do is try
Somebody told me you had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential, I've got potential a rushin' a rushin' around
Somebody told me you had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential, I've got potential a rushin' a rushin' around"
Steven Weinberg Quote
"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."

Armed and Dangerous » Blog Archive » Where’s Tom Wolfe when you need him?: "Baseball star’s wife makes ultimate threat
The wife of a top US baseball player has vowed to have sex with all of his team mates if he ever cheats on her.
Anna Benson, a former model and stripper who was named Baseball’s Hottest Wife by FHM, is married to Mets pitcher Kris Benson.
She told Howard Stern’s radio show: “I told him, cheat on me all you want. If you get caught, I’m going to s***w everybody on your entire team. Coaches, trainers, players. I would do everybody on his whole team.”
Stern, egging her on, asked: “Even the coaches? What about, like, the bat boys?”
“Everybody would get a turn,” Anna pledged. “If my husband cheated on me and embarrassed me like that, I will embarrass him more than he could ever imagine.”
Uh huh. I see that, somehow, this woman managed to have a career as a “model and stripper” without developing the faintest shred of a clue how men think or respond to a challenge like this.
Bet on it. Somehere, a coalition of the most unattractive no-hopers in the Mets organization — probably organized by some dude with a beer gut, bad breath, and a bread-dough complexion who harbors a lo"

Amsterdam's "No Toking" Signs On Sale Next Week
Amsterdam's "No Toking" Signs On Sale Next Week I read earlier this week about the "no pot smoking" street signs in Amsterdam that are being stolen by those who apparently into the evil weed who thought they make pretty good souvenirs. So the city -- or the Baarsjes district of Amsterdam -- has decided to sell them. I've got a friend or two who I thought would find it amusing to get one of these as a gift. I tracked down the council site, found the right page with contact details, and sent an email to find more. That page has now been updated, plus I was also emailed some additional information. The signes go on sale through the web next week, and more "no toking" items will follow. Here's the info I just got emailed:
Information about purchasing the “blowverbodsbord” (no toking sign)

Monday the 13th of february at 16.00 hours local time the sites www.noblowbord.nl and www.notokingsign.com will start. You will find information about purchasing the sign on these sites and you will be able to pay by creditcard.

If you have a creative idea for a new “no toking” product we would be most interested. In that case please contact no.blow.bord@vespro.nl . If your idea gets produced, you will receive a free sign and of course a free sample of your product.

Many greetings from Amsterdam
