Darn it. I'm sorry I missed that!

Guess we know what the REAL "E" in FIRE is........

There's an old joke about depth perception that goes along with that pic..........

You mean "Why do women make such lousy pilots?"

Back to snow: Here are photos taken in Washington State last Wednesday to keep things in perspective:

Chicago is under a blizzard watch tonight and tomorrow.

And what are "snow showers"? Same as "flurries"? We got both going on, I think.

Actually, men, I thought it went something like this...

Q: Why do women make such bad carpenters?

A: Because all their lives they are convinced that this (your photo with fingers 3" apart) is 8 inches.

Your serve...

 

[REWahoo]

Substitute pilots for carpenters (and 9" for 8"*) and you've got it!


*Need to account for inflation.

I'm glad you provided the punch line--I didn't get it -- wait, you mean that's really only 3"?

True story - MY LH used to spout stuff like this to see if he could get a rise out of me.
No chance.
Being a data freak and loving the challenge of being able to say ITYS,
I kept a log for one year of the number of stupid things performed behind the wheel. I used a small glovebox sized notepad.
I made 2 columns - Men and Women.
For every eye-popping stunt, a hashmark was awarded. I kept the log entries religiously when we were together in the car. We had a lot of laughs being "on the lookout" to try to "improve" the other gender's score. Sometimes 2 marks were awarded, by mutual agreement, for compound violations.
After 1 year, can you believe the final tally of the columns was within 5 hashmarks? AND GUESS WHO LOST?
Don't believe me? Get a notebook going for just a month or two, and enjoy the laughs.

I don't need statistical data, I just state stuff as fact. However, DW scares me when she drives. The larger the vehicle, the faster she drives.........
