“You have a good one” is akin to saying “Have a Nice Day.”
Isn’t it ironic that “A Good One” is also a congratulatory phrase used when someone tells a “Good Joke?”
Men are most apt to believe what they least understand.

“When you wet the bed, first it gets warm then it gets cold.” So says James Joyce. And this is true for everything: a man’s life, a mother’s love, worldly passion, weather, fashion, technology, war, a bird in the nest, a beating heart, milk on the floor, ball bearings, anger, the sun, a barking dog, ice cream, the sound of a hand moving through water, words, sulpher, the color blue.
You never know who will have the answers… but you must push to find the questions that need to be asked.

Unwanted romantic attention is sexual spam. Sure, you can sexually spam a thousand people and– maybe– get laid once, but what’s the point?
Researchers Become Spammers To See How Successful Spam Is (TechDirt.com) Computer scientists at the University of California took over a zombie network to send out bogus spam and watch the fake orders roll in. Except they didn’t get many orders. They sent out 350 million spam messages, and received a grand total of 28 orders. But, even accepting the researchers’ numbers, they found that the full zombie network they used could probably bring in about $7k per day, or about $2 million per year.
True or False? When couples have been together for a while, they begin to act and look alike.

Don’t marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can’t live without.
Quotation from Dr. James C. Dobson
Flattery is never so agreeable as to our blind side. Commend a fool for his wit, or a knave for his honesty, and they will receive you into their bosoms.
