Ladies, don't let LAN tell you what to think. Find out for yourselves. ;-)

I bought my girlfriend a set of new tires and paid for her to go to truck driving school... now she's down the road and I'm all alone.
Hey, maybe I should write a country song about it!

Well, he'd stare in amazement if I put one on (or used the vacuum.) ;-)

They could have found out the same information by watching the Blue Collar Comedy Tour:
"If every kiss begins with Kay, then you married a whore!"
followed by:
"Diamonds. They'll shut her up. For a little while."

Heh. My neighbor was scrapping an old chicken house. I saw that there was a lot of good wood in it...straight-grained spruce...so I built a kitplane out of it from plans I found on the internet, and gave it to my wife for an anniversary present.
But wouldn't you know it? Next thing I knew, she'd up and flew the coop.

I can't imagine these two gets lots of dates. When you start applying mathematical models to dating you have reached new heights of nerddom.

"Men who spend big money wining and dining their dates are not frittering away hard-earned cash. "
My advice is to take the lady out for coffee before going out on a date. Spending an hour in the coffee shop is more than enough time to find out if she's date-worthy. If she is a dud you only wasted 5 bucks instead of $50.

I wish my wife would start applying some mathematical models to our credit card balances.

Opera tickets. A man has to be committed to a woman to dress up and attend the opera, especially if he is not really into opera. That's assuming the lady likes opera, which I happen to love.

Using mathematical modelling... Stopped reading there.
To: kalee
Ahhh.. the opera paradox. As a man we must say that we don't like opera even if we do. Women want to go to the opera perhaps, but rarely want to go with a man who actually likes it.

My husband doesn't like it, but he is willing to spring for tickets, get dressed up and go just because it makes me so happy.

"Diamonds. They'll shut her up. For a little while." A bit of wisdom my husband learned early in our relationship. Ron White is hysterical - my favorite of the four.
