...men, go figure

There are some things you just don’t hear about when it comes to women. You’ve all heard them……"Stupid Criminals", "Kuckleheads in the News", "Weird and Bizarre". I read the AP news every morning (yes, at work, but don’t tell Uncle Sam).

Intermingled with murders, the war, Muslim extremists and politics, they usually have one story of something really stupid, more than not, perpetrated by a man. There was the man who wrote his bank robbery note on the back of his phone bill and handed it to the teller. Obviously, the police had no trouble tracking him down. Now a woman would choose a lovely soft shade of lavender lightly scented paper and write " Would you please be so kind to hand over all your money? Thank you." And remain anonymous.

I’m sure you heard about the gang that was ripping off a chain of stores in New Jersey. They eventually got caught after robbing one store; however, they will be charged with multiple robberies. Why? Apparently, they were taking pictures and videos of themselves while they were committing the crimes. Really! Would a woman stop to take videos of her self in the midst of cleaning out a store? I mean, c’mon….lugging heavy items around with sweat pouring down her face and then taping it?….I think not.

The best, however, is the story of a man (in Boston, I believe) who decided to rob a Taco Bell. Yes, a Taco Bell. What did he hope to get…enchiladas? The police found him running from the fast food restaurant, stark naked, with melted cheese covering his shoulders and head. Good grief! Can you imagine a woman dunking her head in melted cheese? And really, does orange go with any shade of hair color at all??? And what lipstick matches Cheez Whiz? Gotta be a "man-thing", huh?
