Good Morning Gentle Readers,

The Commerce Clearing House Small Business Guide has some slightly more objective suggestions for managing the hiring process here.

Five Rules

Good Morning Gentle Readers,

There are five simple rules that if followed will almost guarantee any man a happy love life.

• It's important to have a woman who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans up and has a job.
• It's important to have a woman who can make you laugh.
• It's important to have a woman who you can trust and who doesn't lie to you.
• It's important to have a woman who is good in bed and who likes to be with you.
• It's very, very important that these four women don't know each other.

As Ever,

Intestinal Fortitude vs Cojones

Gentle Readers,

The WC used to hang out with a guy named Brad who, in my estimation, was incapable of fear. One might conclude after an evening spent with Brad (assuming you were still ambulatory) that he had guts (in spades). Or you might say that he had, ahem, cojones (Ca-hoe-ness). Make no mistake, there is actually a difference. Please make a note of it as follows:

GUTS: After a late night out with the guys you arrive home fully plowed. As you stagger through the front door you're assaulted by your wife with a broom. You then demand to know, Are you still cleaning? Or flying off somewhere for the night? That's guts.

COJONES: After a late night out with the guys you arrive home reeking of alcohol and perfume with lipstick on your collar and a ring of hickeys around your neck. Stumbling through the back door, you slap your wife on the backside and say: You're next, Babe. That's cojones.

As Ever,

Sweden v Britain

Gentle Readers,

This PowerPoint presentation amply illustrates the differences between pub clientele of Stockholm and pub clientele of Newcastle. Although we can draw our conclusions, I suspect that this is more amusing when viewed within a cultural context that we Yanks are unfamiliar with.

Rated PG. No nudity but this is definitely racy. May offend those with delicate sensibilities or refined tastes. You probably won't share this with your pastor or your third grader.

As Ever,

Prepared In Nu Awlins

Unlike many of the residents of flood ravaged New Orleans, this guy was actually quite prepared. Boy Howdy, he's got Keystone, Budlite, Red Dog, some mustard, & a pack of Oscar Meyer. He also appears to have a couple of bottles of hard stuff and some sweet lemony-lime stuff to mix it with. He's got paper towels (or is that toilet paper?) and his old lady is comfortably ensconced on a plywood barge. And, if you look carefully you'll notice she's got a flat head, which as all guys who watch football and drink beer know, is just perfect to set a beer can on. Lawdy.

Good Morning Gentle Readers,

One more reason why old guys need to keep the cell phone handy.
