........And that's how the fight starTED..=)

When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace expensive.....so, I took her to a gas station..... and that's how the fight started.... ******************************************************* ** I tried to talk my wife into buying a case of Miller Light for $14.95. Instead, she bought a jar of cold cream for $7.95. I told her the beer would make her look better at night than the cold cream. And that's how the fight started. ******************************************************* ************** After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too'. And that's how the fight started..... ******************************************************* ************** My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, 'Do you know her?' 'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.' 'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?' And that's how the fight started..... ******************************************************* ************** I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things just seem funny? Yeah, well I couldn't believe it.... he was a DWARF!!! He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, 'I AM NOT HAPPY!!!' So, I looked down at him and said, 'Well, then which one are you?' And that's how the fight started..... ******************************************************* ************** I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. 'I'll have the strip steak, medium rare, please.' He said, 'Aren't you worried about the mad cow?' 'Nah, she can order for herself.' And that's how the fight started.....

25 Fascinating Love Facts

Love is mysterious, fascinating, and when you find it with the right person, there's nothing better. Here are 25 surprising love facts to puzzle over and embrace. Love is a many-splendored thing … and a very surprising thing, too. As if you needed proof of that, here are 25 funny little facts about love. Study them, scratch your head over them, and share them with someone you fancy. 1. Men who kiss their wives in the morning live five years longer than those who don't. 2. People are more likely to tilt their heads to the right when kissing instead of the left (65 percent of people go to the right!) 3. When it comes to doing the deed early in the relationship, 78 percent of women would decline an intimate rendezvous if they had not shaved their legs or underarms. 4. Feminist women are more likely than other females to be in a romantic relationship. 5. Two-thirds of people report that they fall in love with someone they've known for some time vs. someone that they just met. 6. There's a reason why office romances occur: The single biggest predictor of love is proximity. 7. Falling in love can induce a calming effect on the body and mind and raises levels of nerve growth factor for about a year, which helps to restore the nervous system and improves the lover's memory. 8. Love can also exert the same stress on your body as deep fear. You see the same physiological responses — pupil dilation, sweaty palms, and increased heart rate. 9. Brain scans show that people who view photos of a beloved experience an activation of the caudate — the part of the brain involving cravings. 10. The women of the Tiwi tribe in the South Pacific are married at birth. 11. The "Love Detector" service from Korean cell phone operator KTF uses technology that is supposed to analyze voice patterns to see if a lover is speaking honestly and with affection. Users later receive an analysis of the conversation delivered through text message that breaks down the amount of affection, surprise, concentration and honesty of the other speaker. 12. Eleven percent of women have gone online and done research on a person they were dating or were about to meet, versus seven percent of men. 13. Couples' personalities converge over time to make partners more and more similar. 14. The oldest known love song was written 4,000 years ago and comes from an area between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. 15. The tradition of the diamond engagement ring comes from Archduke Maximillian of Austria who, in the 15th century, gave a diamond ring to his fiancée, Mary of Burgundy. 16. Forty-three percent of women prefer their partners never sign "love" to a card unless they are ready for commitment. 17. People who are newly in love produce decreased levels of the hormone serotonin — as low as levels seen in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Perhaps that's why it's so easy to feel obsessed when you're smitten. 18. Philadelphia International Airport finished as the No. 1 best airport for making a love connection, according to an online survey. 19. According to mathematical theory, we should date a dozen people before choosing a long-term partner; that provides the best chance that you'll make a love match. 20. A man's beard grows fastest when he anticipates sex. 21. Every Valentine's Day, Verona, the Italian city where Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet took place, receives around 1,000 letters addressed to Juliet. 21. When we get dumped, for a period of time we love the person who rejected us even more, says Dr. Helen Fisher of Rutgers University and author of Why We Love. The brain regions that lit up when we were in a happy union continue to be active. 22. People telling the story of how they fell in love overwhelmingly believe the process is out of their control. 23. Familiarity breeds comfort and closeness … and romance. 24. One in five long-term love relationships began with one or both partners being involved with others. 25. OK, this one may not surprise you, but we had to share it: Having a romantic relationship makes both genders happier. The stronger the commitment, the greater the happiness!

Why do we Love Men=)

- we love men because they do absolutely everything possible to try to hide their weaknesses. -Because they are at peace with their bodies, except for small, insignificant things like growing bald and getting fat. -because they can’t fake an orgasm, even if they wanted to. -Because they will never understand us, yet even so they go on trying. -Because they still manage to see our beauty, even when we ourselves no longer believe it. -Because they are incredibly courageous in front of insects. -Because they understand equations, politics, maths and economics, but not the feminine heart. -Because they are lovers who only rest when we have had (or pretend to have had) pleasure. -Because they manage to raise sport to something bordering on religion. -Because they are never afraid of the dark. -Because they insist on fixing things that are beyond their capacity, and dedicate themselves to this with the same enthusiasm as an adolescent, and get frustrated when they don’t succeed. -Because they are like pomegranates: most of them is impossible to digest, but the seeds are delicious. -Because they never comment on what the neighbors might think. -Because we always know what they are thinking, and when they open their mouth they say exactly what we imagined they would. -Because they never dreamed of torturing themselves wearing high heels. -Because they love to explore our body and conquer our soul. -Because a 14-year-old girl can leave them speechless, and a 25-year-old woman can tame them quite effortlessly.. =) -Because they are always attracted by extremes: the opulent or the ascetic, warriors or monks, artists or generals. -Because a man’s biggest fear is not being a man (it never crosses a woman’s mind not to be a woman). -Because they always eat everything on their plate, and don’t feel guilty about it. -Because they take great delight in completely uninteresting matters, such as what happened at work, or different makes of automobiles. -Because they have shoulders where we can rest our heads and sleep without much effort. -Because they never lie about their age. -Because when we tell one of them “I love you”, they always ask us to explain exactly how. – because they know we have as much power of reasoning as men do. But we don’t need to make this evident, otherwise they will feel insecure. Women who do that end up alone. -Because despite everything they try to demonstrate, they can’t live without a woman. *from paulo c's warrior of the light online =)

Counting the days

Every year I am anticipating of my birthday,I know something special will come out but this year it would be very different,I am not expecting anyting because financially we are drain,I been trying to hide my emotion everytime my aunt would ask me what I want,I always knew what I wanted to have in terms of material things but I have no answer to give her,I just smiled and said that she don't have to worry or bother about it. Honestly,all that happened to me,good and bad had been a blessing,some like a blessing in disguise,you lost some,you win some,that is the fact of life,always expect the unexpected.I am happy that we are all healthy,we have food in the table,roof under our head and we can buy something what we really want once in a while. Two days from now,I will mark my 29th years here on earth.I am thanking the Lord for all the gifts and blessing He gave me.Though I haven't feel the love of my parents I am totally loved with my aunts and uncles,especially tita D and tita Jing,they are my rock and through this,I wanted to say THANK YOU for the unconditional love that you showed to me,sometimes I know I am such a whiner and a pain in your ass but I LOVE YOU both with all my heart.I am not what I am today if not because of you two. To myself....Happy Birthday in Advance....and I may grow with compassion and understanding,happiness and contentment in my heart.

My own Words-Election 08

I am not really into politics,I had witnessed when Gorge W. Bush won last 2004 election and to me it was just an ordinary day.We didn't watched it with anticipation or eagerness.Who ever will win at that time,it was fine with us. But this time it is very different,yes we all know that it is a historical one,the candidates were totally opposite but after a grueling and tiring campaign they came to an end and the people of United States of America had spoken,it is time for a change,a new blood to lead the country and not to mention the first president ever who is not white,a president who American-African in short a Black man will lead our counrty. I shed tears when he was giving his speech,it touched my heart when he said that the change has arrive,that true meaning of victory belong to the people,not to him.He said also that,he wants America the place will everyone can make,if they will try.For me,it is a new hope. I love John McCain as well,he is the guy who gave his entire life to serve his country,his experiences aND record will attest you that,he is a true Maverick,a guy who will give up his own life for his country.When he conceded last night,my heart felt him,especially when he said that he came short,and he had his own share of mistakes while he was in the office,that he is the one who fail,not the people who supported him. he added,he won't spend his days regretting what might have been if he did something different. The journey for the new president is yet to begin,it is still a wait and see situation,a long,difficult jouney to take,but if we will behind his back,I believe that we can make a difference,a change,and a better America will soar high.America is beautiful and may God bless America!!!

Healthy Frozen Dinners – What to Look for

If you are like me an avid fan of frozen dinners,there are some things that we need to know,this is the very reason why I wanted to share them with you.I found this article while I am browsing in the web searching for something and it caught my attention.I believe this is worth sharing with you guys. For more than fifty years frozen dinners have been around, but the question that comes to today’s health conscious people is whether they are healthy. It is reassuring that there are a lot of companies in the world today who are aware of the issue. They are therefore producing healthy low fat, low calorie and low sodium dinners that display in certain cases, the health benefits on the pack. What you should look for Vegetables You must first look out to see whether there are enough vegetables in the food you are buying. A lot of these frozen dinners come with just a spoonful of vegetables. Adult diet should be rich in vegetables. If you find that there are not enough vegetables you can add some yourself before eating it. Calories Most frozen foods contain calories ranging from 200 to 1,000. This is certainly more than you need in a day. The amount of calories you need depend on what you want to do with your weight. Those who want to lose or maintain weight should be eating between 350 to 500 calories a day. That also depends on your activity level. The less active the less calories you need. Those who want to increase weight can choose frozen dinners that contain more calories. But be careful not to overdo it. High calories mean high fat levels. But choosing low calorie dinners will leave you hungry in a few moments with the temptation to snack. Fat and Sodium You must look for dinners with less than 30% of calories as fat and only 10% of this as saturated fat. You should also look carefully at the sodium content. Most frozen foods are rich in sodium, some containing more than half the amount you need in a day. Look for dinners with not more than 200 mg of sodium per 100 calories. Warning Although there are healthy frozen dinners, it doesn’t mean that you should be eating day every day. Most frozen foods do not contain some vital nutrients such as vitamins and vitamins. They might be easily available but they must not become our normal diet.

And they Wonder

Last night some of my friends and me(they are all hitched)had a dinner together at Mordeicas,a buffet restaurant.We had a very good meal and while we were eating we will always update each other about our lovelives errr..their lovelives to be exact.Most of the time they complain how hard it is to have a small kids and a husband to take care of.As always,I am just a listener,smile and nod or sometimes I share my input if i had too. But lastnight,it was different,I was the one in the hotseat.One asked me when was the last time I had a date with an opposite sex.I replied just recently but I don't see any reason why I had to go out with him again..he is so boriiiinnnnng!!!Another friend of mine said,everytime you go out with a guy,you always had a complain,which is true,I am not picky but do I really have to date just to say or show to people that I am dating?I have my own fair share of heartache and actually I am liking someone without my friends knowing who he is. I don't want to go out with a local guy here in our city for they are not really my type,don't get me wrong but I just can't imagine myself getting invloved with a man who is so limited with their ambitions in life and have a very conservative way of thinking. My closest friend said out loud that they are wondering why I am still single,I have the looks(?),I am smart( i will take it as a compliment),and I have a potential to be a good mom and a wife.So why?my explaination was simple,I don't see why can't I be single and be happy about it.If I get married then we will see aif it will happen but I won't put my hope so high for it is not under my control.Everything has it's time and it's season so all I can do for now is wait and see.

First Entry of the month-Nov.

Hello everyone!!!How was your halloween?I hope you had a good time.Mine was pretty good,my dogs Roxy and tito had their costumes on.My little cuz Kat and her friend Laura came over to have her trick or treat here in our neighborhood.The weather was really great,it wasn't cold at all,good for Kat,for she had a very sexy outfit. I was the one who accompanied the kids,we met so many kids and parents walking.Some live in the subdivision and some from the outside.I noticed that this year,not every house in the neighborhood had adecorations outside the house.Maybe because of the economy situation they won't spend that much. After an hour or so we were done,and they have a bucketfull of candies,I got some for myself as well,some chocolates that I ate while we were walking.Roxy was having a blast,she thought that she is a star cause the kids greeted and petted her which she loves.We had some pizza at home and I got some dog cookies for my babies. I was supposed to attend a halloween party in one of my friend but I can't find the costumes that my aunt bought for me,my wild guess is that I threw it cause it was still in the box.Bummer!!!Well,there will always a next year,Gods will.
