I'll Have The Misogyny Au Gratin, Please
by Steve West on April 15, 2008

We were having dinner with my nephew the other night and the conversation steered toward his numerous relationships.
He replied with that standard chauvinistic response, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?"
My wife looked at him directly and retorted, "Yeah, why buy the whole pig for just a little sausage?"
My nephew stammered, "Exactly! I agree. Wait a minute..."
That's my girl.

Sweet! :) I mean, obviously if she married you, she had to have a sense of humor, but a quick wit too? ;)

Pedants 'R' Us
Today, we attended a celebration for a very good friend of mine whose daughter was graduating High School. It got me thinking in an educational mode so I thought I'd share a pictorial overview of air quotes. Go »
Christmas Post #11: Niche Market Dolls
In Waiting For Guffman, Christopher Guest play acts with his My Dinner With Andre action figures. That was the funniest moment of the film for me. I could see something similar happening with almost any of the dolls in this collection. Go »
My Second Dad
Earlier this week, I lost my father-in-law to lung cancer. He was a beautiful man who welcomed me into his family after marrying his oldest daughter. Family isn’t always blood. Go »

Tell your wife to keep 'em coming, Steve -- I could use some good old-fashioned... misandry???
Ha... well, whatever it's called, that was definitely a good one. ;-)
