Oh, I have some irony for you:
Yeah, I saw that. I like the way some people think they can make something ironic and satiric by accusing their detractors of "just not getting it man" when they don't laugh.
Still, this piece was one of those email cloggers a couple of years ago, and are probably only ever funny the first couples times it turns up. It seemed for a while like there is some cult that exists to insure the top three "humors" are forever past around - they being "10 reasons why beer is better then women/Jesus/Buddha/you/cars/G.W. Bush/vegetables/spleens/etc", "Blonde Jokes" and this one The Libertine posted.
Still, in the spirit of things:
Q. What did the women do when she saw her ex-husband was rolling around on the ground in terrible pain?
A. She shot him again.
Society does actually need more people like Backfire. He's desensitised so many of you to words and ideas that cause needless offense among so many people.
If Backfire made a joke about paedophilia, more people here would laugh than if I said it. Despite neither of us meaning it (Not sure about Backfire).

Much has changed since the nineteen fifties, divorce is up, many people come from one parent families in civilised countries like England and less civilised countries like Scotland and Wales. Even Primitive societies like the US, Canada and Ireland have this problem. I blame the changing role of women in society and the medias attempts to portray then as capable of doing a mans job.I believe if women when married followed these 10 simple rules it would halt this malaise and reduce the sale of mail order brides, a major export in many enlightened countries. I also think it would reduce homosexuality as men would see women as benign and no longer untrustworthy and adultorous.
My Manifesto and ten points women need to follow to keep their man.
Have dinner ready: Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal - on time. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him, and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospects of a good meal are part of the warm welcome needed.
Prepare yourself: Take 15 minutes to rest so you will be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your makeup, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking. He has just been with alot of work- weary people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting. His boring day may need a lift.
Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives, gathering up school books, toys, paper, etc. Then run a dust cloth over the tables. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift, too.
Prepare the children: Take a few minutes to wash the children's hands and faces if they are small, comb their hair, and if necessary, change their clothes. They are little treasures and he would like to see them playing the part.
Minimize the noise: At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of washer, dryer, dishwasher or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be quiet. Be happy to see him. Greet him with a warm smile and be glad to see him.
Some Dont's: Don't greet him with problems or complaints. Don't complain if he's late for dinner. Count this as minor compared with what he might have gone through that day.
Make him comfortable: Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or suggest he lie down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him. Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soft, soothing and pleasant voice. Allow him to relax and unwind.
Listen to him: You may have a dozen things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first.
Make the evening his: Never complain if he does not take you out to dinner or to other places of entertainment; instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure, his need to be home and relax.
The goal: Try to make your home a place of peace and order where your husband can relax.
Thoughts?
Meh
We women belong home cooking cleaning, taking care of children, making out man happy. not out stealing their jobs, balancing career and child raising. our fist goal should be being their for the children, then devoting ourselves to our man. It's that simple. Well said Libertine for daring to raise this controversial issue in the present climate of political correctness. Some of the members here are very dim indeed.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Cindy Bear had a career. She was Yogi's biz-natch. But, you do have a point when you said making him happy was important, as Yogi always carried a smile. Regarding the child rearing, did you spank Boo Boo? Overall, Cindy Bear, I'd say your assessment was 90% accurate.
I do need to know one thing, though. Boo Boo's your kid, right? Or is he just a midget? I'm sorry I don't know this but I'm years removed from the Hanna-Barbara days. I have been to Jellystone park, though (Georgia) when I was about six years old.

Ask him yourself about most of this, no he is not my kid.
