        More like before I matured...picture your grandfather trying to 'sneak' up on a raccoon, and hoping to outrun it!

        Big 'hello' to you LS!
        
        I tried to run off the back porch, and scare the bejesus out of the raccoon eating me out of house an' home at my bird feeder. I have 6 steps down to the yard...and I managed to miss the bottom three! The pilferer just sat on the feeder, and I swear that he/she was smiling....
        
        Now I am in my fourth different cast, and have a metal plate (complete with 9 screws) keeping me together.
        
        What really bummed me out, was I was scheduled to be on Dancing With the Idiots!!!

        Good grief, Rocky. I think I heard something snap while reading that. Yikes. That raccoon is telling his buddies all about your feeders. Glad you're on the mend. Not sure that answers why you haven't been in the gulch lately though. Your fingers ain't broke. Lol

        wow. it only takes a split second. glad you're hear to talk about those damned coons! One time I opened the back door into the garage and found a whole family of them right there staring and hissing at me-and that mama was HUGE. I was not armed or legged-actually very weak-kneed. I somehow managed to get db and he used his wrist rocket to coax them out of the garage. they were cold blooded chicken killers-is why they were there-I was incubating chicks and had the garage door cracked-I thought pretty safe. maybe raccoons are boneless

        The adults are downright demonic, to say the least!
        
        I normally trap them in a cage using dog food, and 'transport' them about 15 miles down a country road to liberate. But I loaned out my trap, and the rest is my medical history.... ;-)

I immediately started thinking of a few opposite terms, such as:

menstruating should be called womenstruating, but then again, they always seem to blame that mood that seems to go along with it on men.

I was not sure if it was written by a man or a woman. I learned a lot, like having to ask permission to tell a girl that she has a nice ass. I guess I have to read it again.

  It's hard to tell because there is no real problem with misandrogenic words so it's not really spoofing anything besides general nonsense.

Is this what is meant by the battle of the sexes?
If any woman believed that satirical crap, she would be compelled to be a lesbian. However, I must admit that the one thing that all women seem to be born with is the ability to present whatever in a passive/aggressive manner. If you don't know what that is, I can only describe it as something like moving soft fingers delicately over an exposed nerve. Or perhaps an iron fist in a velvet glove. That weapon seems to trump pretty much anything we hapless males can conjure up..

  I live in a very macho society. Women definitely do NOT tell their men what to do in front of everyone else. They are a little shocked when they hear me ask Db what he is making for dinner. However, I have heard many men and women say, that the men in my country feel compelled to make love to any woman who comes on to them. Even if they are not interested. lol
