Everyone uses them everyday, and if you
listened very carefully,
I've given you the third word. What is

Outdoor Barbecuing

It's the only type of cooking a "real" man will do. When a man
volunteers to do such cooking, the following chain of events is put into motion.

(1) The woman goes to the store.
(2) The woman fixes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along
with the necessary cooking utensils, and takes it to the man, who is
lounging beside the grill, drinking a beer.
(4) The man places the meat on the grill.
(5) The woman goes inside to set the table and check the vegetables.
(6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning.
(7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.
(8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
(10) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off," And, upon
seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing
some women.

Happy Memorial Day!
Congrats to Jim's daughter Allison for making all county 3rd base player!

This weekend marks 23 years that I first met Mary at Lock, Stock and Barrel in Rockland County. I was out with Jack Rosko and Bill Breg from Union College. Mary was with her friend Liz. Who remembers that I ordered an antipasto plate to be delivered to her table at that restaurant, and that's how we met?
