We men are maligned by the distaff sex, We are never considerate enough. At the top of the list of things that upset Is how we leave that darn seat up! I must admit, we should be more polite, We should return the seat to its place. Especially when it's late at night, And we don't want a light in our face. Guilty as charged, we men confess We forget the routine of your ways. How you stumble and grumble in your nightdress And don't check for the seat in its place. AH! Are we the only ones guilty of this? I think not, please let me expound. The love of my life has oft been remiss In where my seat will be found. Guilty as charged, I wish she'd confess, She forgets the routine of my ways. How I leap into the car totally reckless, And don't check for the seat in its place. My knees bang the wheel, I let out a scream My back cries out with a cramp. It's not the same as the bathroom scene, The pain's much worse than the damp. Lorelei is petite, just five foot two (Her legs are not long enough). When she drives the car, after she's through, She leaves that darn seat up! |

Hey turnabout is fair play..........neither done on purpose...so what the heck ! But if this continues I'd suggest you see a marriage counselor....I understand there's a good one right here at Passions.....A Dr. Michael Balladeer I believe..I just know he can help, I have a feel for that sort of thing! Keep your seat down and have a nice day! |

ROFL... I love this, Long John!!! *G* You'll probably remember that I had foot surgery just a couple of weeks after I bought my car and my sister used the car while I was housebound... and when I finally got to get behind the wheel again, I wondered what monstrous mistake I'd made... until I adjusted the seat to fit my long legs instead of my sister's (she ALMOST has to sit on telephone books to see out! LOL) Now it's the car's leak that reminds me of my mistake in purchasing it. LOL Thanks for the grins, sailor! |

Thanks everybody! I knew you would see things from a male perspective! We men are so often maligned for our innocent ways *naive eyes blinking* |

Okay..I admit it! I'M GUILTY! but you'll never catch me! NA! It especially annoys my husband when I borrow his truck for any reason at all. I adjust everything in there to my comfort, and when he gets in he has to fix it all.  CUTE POEM! I sure miss your posts. |

LongJohn, on behalf of men everywhere I thank you for this stirring and emotional defense of what we actually go through, without complaint, at the hands of unscrupulous and unfeeling female counterparts. They shall never experience to torture of crushed sensitive body parts by a steering wheel yet they spare no opportunity to chastise us because they are too lazy to look before flopping down. Men everywhere are in your debt and you deserve a 21 toilet seat salute! |

Ok Mr LngJhn I can help settle this. First off since the little lady is "little" she should be able to keep the seat forward in the car and you could get in slowly and move it backwards when you drive. It's easier for big strong man to move the seat back, than dainty lady to pull seat up. Now Mr too lazy to put seat back down on commode, go build yourself an OUTHOUSE and you can go outside to enjoy the other ANIMALS. P.S. Nice to see you back in the ZOO!!!!! |

ROFL ... point poetically taken and duly noted in the memory banks LngJhn. I smiled with understanding when I saw where you were going ... I'm another 5'2" guilty spouse with this bad car seat habit, although I do try to yell "Seat's forward!!!" a fraction of a second too late.  Wonderfully fun read, much enjoyed! Best wishes, /Kit [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (edited 07-01-2001).] |
