B B Q RULES
We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion: Routine... (1) The woman buys the food. (2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert. (3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand. (4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three metre exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman. Here comes the important part: (5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL. More routine... (6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery. (7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat. Important again: (8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN. More routine... (9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table. (10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes. And most important of all: (11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts. (12) 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. |

There are four houses of worship in a small, rural Texas town: the Pentecostal Church, the Baptist Church, the Catholic Church and the Jewish Synagogue. All four houses of worship are overrun with pesky squirrels. In the Baptist Church,the deacons meet and decided that they are not in a position to harm any of God's creatures. So, they trap the squirrels and set them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels are back. In the Pentecostal Church, they decide to pray for the squirrels to go away. A fortnight later, the population has doubled. The Catholic Church comes up with a better solution. They baptise the squirrels and register them as members of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter. Not much was heard from the Jewish Synagogue, but they took one squirrel and had a short service and circumcised him. They haven't seen a squirrel on the property since.
