Are your plants poisioning your pets?

April 11, 2010 · Posted in Home Life, Men At Home · Comment 

I’ve often worried about the plants growing around my home — the legal ones, that is. We have several cats and a dog running around here unsupervised. We also have an impressive group of houseplants to keep things looking nice and to re-cycle the stale air every now and then.

I have often wondered which plants are safe for pets and which ones aren’t. I stumbled upon a web site called New Gardener and they just published an article about plants and pet safety. If that’s an issue around your home, I suggest you take a look. They have a very helpful list of safe and unsafe plants, as well as a number to call if your pets do get sick.

Forget all the other stuff, basically women go for men with expensive cars.

Somewhere back in the middle of the 20th century, someone starting spreading the malicious idea that what women want is a man who is sensitive, intelligent, sensual, mature, a good listener, and kind to pets, kids, and her girlfriends. Being handsome and having a good “package” were, of course, assumed to be important.

Now, as we enter the second decade of a new century, we are learning that all that other stuff is superfluous. A new study tells us what we’ve always known — most women are unabashedly shallow human beings who put financial assets far ahead of any other personal trinkets we might bring to the relationship.

In the study, most women found men more attractive when they drove an expensive, fancy car. Men, on the other hand, did not find women who drove expensive cars to be more attractive. They did, however, find women with large breasts to be more attractive.

At least that makes sense.

Jesse James tries to lie his way out of mischief.

March 18, 2010 · Posted in Celebrities, Home Life, Men, Men At Home, Sex, Women · Comment 

What I would give to have some celebrity cheater like Jesse James actually tell the truth about their infidelity.

Here’s what James said today about his affair with a tattoo artist:

“It’s because of my poor judgment that I deserve everything bad that is coming my way,” he says in the statement. “This has caused my wife and kids pain and embarrassment beyond comprehension and I am extremely saddened to have brought this on them. I am truly very sorry for the grief I have caused them. I hope one day they can find it in their hearts to forgive me.”

Poor judgment?

What do you think is the real reason he cheated on Sandra Bullock?

Because she’s a bitch?

Because she’s frigid in bed?

Because she constantly nags him about that ridiculous beard — and everything else he is or does?

Because she acts like the world revolves around her and he’s just some minor actor living in her world?

Because he’s a man and he got tired of sleeping with the same-old, same-old?

Or, how about, because he is a man, and this is what men do when they have no self-control and just want to get laid with some hot-assed bitch who doesn’t pretend she’s his mother?

One way or another, it takes two to make a marriage. It takes two to break a marriage. For James to take all the responsibility on himself is noble. But it is a lie. And Sandra Bullock knows it.
