What Makes Women Extremely Happy

One of my facebook friends posted a survey about what makes women extremely happy. Here is the results:

Interesting! "What makes women extremely happy? from "Women Want More" by Michael J. Silverstein & Kate Sayre
1. Pets - 42%
2. Sex - 27%
3. Food - 19%
4. Shopping - 5%
...5. The economy - 2%

Here is my response:

Food would be above sex for me. Hell, even shopping would be above sex, and I don't like to shop. The only thing that would be below sex is the economy, but as far as I'm concerned, having a bout of intestinal flu would be better than the economy at this point.
A good hardy laugh is even above food, though, and trust me, I like to eat!

Dumb Like a Fox

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?"

The boy takes the quarters and leaves.

"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"

Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.

"Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?"

The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!" :)
