And, my husband always responds to the TV when the Viagra warning comes on--"why would I want to do that?" LOL.<BR/><BR/>V-Love your planned code language, but I suspect if he responds, "Ummm, I don't think so." you might get more specific. Here's hoping you don't have to worry about that for a LONG time. Heck, I don't want to think about it and I have a 20-year old. <BR/><BR/>In general, I would have NEVER relied on a man for the birth control.<BR/><BR/>As far as personal hygiene in a public place, this one is not exactly in the same league, but I have never quite recovered from witnessing a mother let her toddler pee into the dolphin pool after our dolphin petting experience in the Bahamas. <BR/><BR/>Oh, I just remembered one more ... I stopped using ANY brushes or sponges in ANY workplace kitchen, when a co-worker told me that she witnessed another person using the dish brush to scrub off the dry skin on his arms. My stomach rolls at the thought.<BR/><BR/>Love the Einstein bunny!Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12236812564217726681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-42061075044650321912008-05-05T15:33:00.000-04:002008-05-05T15:33:00.000-04:00Shit, does that mean I have to put away my fish-sc...Shit, does that mean I have to put away my fish-scale sequined purse that I carry everyhwere?Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11604097511444010759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-34048077897806427882008-05-05T08:37:00.000-04:002008-05-05T08:37:00.000-04:00Oh...sad but true.

The fact that the article said they were years away from "testing it on humans" (read: MEN!) is because most of the people testing it are probably men, and they know that the male population is never going to take a pill for something that isn't going to make their bodies expand exponentially if they don't take it (unless, as you say, it makes one of THEIR body parts expand exponentially, lol.) We already have proof of that with Viagra: there has to be a very alluring consequence for men to be bothered to take a pill.Ortizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709991994425909880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-5843636386351004932008-05-02T16:01:00.000-04:002008-05-02T16:01:00.000-04:00I'm glad that woman didn't pull out a hairbrush fr...I'm glad that woman didn't pull out a hairbrush from her never-ending bag of tricks and begin working on her hair...I think you may have ended up in jail.<BR/><BR/>Men will never take a birth control pill.

Thank Jesus he's long gone.<BR/><BR/>In other news, as far as birth control goes, I think it's the woman's responsibility to decide how much is used (since it's her body and ultimately her decision what would happen if she got pregnant). And so it's her responsibility to take the pill if she wants to or to tell the man he needs to wear a condom. And if she wanted him to take some sort of pill in the future, it would be her responsibility to tell him to take it or to stick it somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine many women trusting men to take this pill anyway, so I think in the future, most will just stick to the girl pill and condoms. Unless in an individual scenario, the woman has the man absolutely whipped. i.e. if someone were dating Jackson H.Mikey G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00897636566850280566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-34480713515574933182008-05-01T10:47:00.000-04:002008-05-01T10:47:00.000-04:00Nance,Remember that restaurant I told you I worked...Nance,<BR/><BR/>Remember that restaurant I told you I worked in?

I thought the waitress would die, but she thought quickly and covered the glass with a napkin.<BR/><BR/>We all took a vow that we would remember this woman's face( We knew we would recognize her teeth) so that she would never get in our place again.

Is that because PA is a dry-ish state (what with the state stores and closed on Sunday, etc.)? Our local Denny's not only serves wine at the table, they have a full bar off to the side! You gotta come to Cali, Nance, and enjoy the thrill of fine wine available at Safeway, 7-11, and anywhere else you might want to go. Oh, and beer and 'spirits', too. All in one place.
