Making Magic at the Bank (of course this story involves a woman)

Don’t worry… I didn’t rob it. But I did break an old pattern today. Usually, when I cross paths with a beautiful woman, who happens to be a complete stranger, I don’t know what to say. On a good day, I’ll smile and say, “hey,” and then quickly go back to staring at my…

Are Men Emotionally Handicapped?

Do bears shit in the woods? Handicapped: having a condition that restricts one’s ability to function physically, mentally or emotionally. Obviously, men are emotionally handicapped. Or… if you prefer, challenged. Everything I needed to know about this issue, I learned in kindergarten. The girls played with each other, interacting mostly in pairs. They would get…
