Men are from Venus, women from Mars, Or maybe vice versa, both planets, not stars. I'd always thought, I'd been brought by a stork, I read this here book, Now I feel like a dork. I told my dear wife, was feeling confused, Called her a Martian, she wasn't amused. She said my dear husband, you don't come from Venus, If I had a guess, you come from Uranus.

Cute.  Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |

LOL  thanks for the laugh, "you come from Uranus". I am sure your wife meant it in the nicest way possible. ------------------------ "I've been too honest with myself I should have lied like everybody else"-Richey Edwards "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "Libraries gave us power Then work came and made us free What price now for a shallow piece of dignity" Nicky Wire, A design for Life. manic street preachers La Tristesse Durera (Scream to a Sigh) "Life has been unfaithful And it all promised so so much I am a relic I am just a petrified cry Wheeled out once a year, a cenotaph souvenir The applause nails down my silence La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh I see liberals I am just a fashion accessory People send postcards And they all hope I'm feeling well I retreat into self-pity, it's so easy Where they patronise my misery La tristesse durera Scream to a sigh, to a sigh I sold my medal It paid a bill It sells at market stalls Parades Milan catwalks The sadness will never go Will never go away Baby it's here to stay |

I am aghast. I endeavor to postulate on the sociological interactions of the male/female dichotomy of the humanoid species, and you people take humor in my philosophical self-introspections. To top it all off, I related Balladeer's comment to Connie and her reply, "so I am not the only one who recognized you are a pain in the asp." btw... thanks for the comments, glad you enjoyed. |

WAY TOO FUNNY... very clever and witty... I saw this poem once written in reference to that book... I hope I can remember it correctly... a friend told me it even was read by the author of this book when he was a guest on Oprah >>> I thought you would enjoy seeing... it was also written by a man... Men are from Mars??? Women are from Venus??? or is it the other way around??? who wrote this was either and idiot or a genius. My wife is always mad at me I seem to never get it right I try to understand women I even tape Oprah and watch it at night. Im starting to think I'm getting in her hair The other day she told me... IF they can put a man on the moon ... WHY CANT THEY PUT THEM ALL THERE!!!!! So I bought this stupid book... hoping that her-- it would impress but it didnt work as you might guess She said you should have bought me flowers instead of that silly book I could have expired-- from her deadly look In my defense I said honey-- its a national best seller he knows all the answers I tried my best to tell her But my words fell on deaf ears as I went on to explain finally defeated I just shut up my words were all in vain She looked at me but took no pity and said So Women are from Mars, Men from Venus I didn't need a book to tell me I already knew you men think and lead with your *****  Then she smiled and said OK honey I give you credit--at least you tried I'll reward you loving efforts lets go upstairs and let our planets collide (author unknown) later-gator jm |
