WOMEN WHO KNOW THEIR PLACE ........ A point of view.
Barbara Walters, formerly of 20/20, did a story on gender roles in Kabul , Afghanistan , several years before the Afghan conflict. She noted that women customarily walked five paces behind their husbands.
She recently returned to Kabul and observed that women still walk behind their husbands. Despite the overthrow of the oppressive Taliban regime, the women are happy to maintain the old custom.
Ms. Walters approached one of the Afghani women and asked, 'Why do you now seem happy with an old custom that you once tried so desperately to change?'
The woman looked Ms. Walters straight in the eyes, and without
hesitation said, 'Land Mines.'
Moral of the story is (no matter what language you speak or where you go):
BEHIND EVERY MAN, THERE'S A SMART WOMAN.

Thanks, ladies and gentlemen, for keeping us in business. Wow….it’s been
31 years for me in the fish market and wholesale division at 18th & Leavenworth,
7 years for the Absolutely Fresh Seafood West Store,
4 years for Shucks on 119th & Pacific
3 years for Bailey’s Breakfast & Lunch
And almost 2 years for Shucks Legacy, at 168th & Center.
Keeps us all busy, and sometimes I wish to go back in time, to when life was simpler. One tough thing is; I can’t see all of you all the time. I’m around a lot, but at several locations, so I’m always hearing “Hey, Greg, I never see you anymore.” Wish I could be everywhere all the time! But you are very important to me, to my family, and to my extended (work) family, be very sure about that. We appreciate every dime, every time. Thanks again,
Greg- ---- --- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- - -- - -- - Retro humor: remember, this is a joke……..Cheney gets a call from his "boss", W."I've got a problem," says W."What's the matter?" asks Cheney."Well, you told me to keep busy in the Oval Office, so, I got a jigsaw puzzle, but it's too hard. None of the pieces fit together and I can't find any edges.""What's it a picture of?" asks Cheney."A big rooster," replies W."All right," sighs Cheney, "I'll come over and have a look."So he leaves his office and heads over to the Oval Office. W points at the jigsaw on his desk.Cheney looks at the desk and then turns to W and says, "For crying out loud, Georgie - put the corn flakes back in the box."
