Anyway, it got me to thinking about the whole flowers thing. In short, how it's all geared at CHICKS! Women ... ladies ... girls. And I can see why the ladies like flowers, and even more why they like getting flowers. And chocolates. And stuffed animals.But where is the guy equivalent? If a guy wants to tell a girl he's sorry, or that he loves her, he sends flowers. Or candy. Or stuffed animals. If a gal wants to convey that to a guy, what does she send? That's right — nothing! Well, sometimes she sexes him up, I guess. And, come to think of it, chicks never apologize to guys, do they? (Yes, Chrissie, in your case you are NEVER wrong! LOL) But that's another topic.
Why isn't there an equitable service for (non-gay) guys? I have an idea to fill in this huge gap in services: TOOL BOUQUETS! You heard me. If a guy can spring for $40 to $100 (or more) for a bouquet of flowers, why can't a gal shell out the same for some nice quality tools for the fellas? Cheap tool bouquets can be screwdriver or wrench sets. We can never have too many of either.
The more expensive, fancy "bouquets" can be CRAFTSMAN POWER TOOLS, like a cordless drill and driver, trim saw and worklight set! The fella you love will love for providing him with power tools!And why not extend this to wedding showers and weddings. Why do chicks get to register at places for towels, kitchen items and plates and shit? Sure, it's going to be for "both of them," but don't you think that the same goes for guy stuff like power tools and yard gear? Why can't we register at the Sears Hardward Department? Or Home Depot?
And if guys have to give ladies engagement rings, why don't we get SHIT? Howzabout an engagement riding lawnmower? Or an engagement home theater system?
It's all about equality. You've come a long way, ladies. The whole dowry thing is a relic of the past. It's time for you all to give as good as you get.
btw ... new pics up on DZER's Guam Pics!
Random Guam Fact Of The Day:
• In ancient Guam, the women were the ones with the power to end a marriage. If a man returned to his home and all his shit was sitting outside, he was divorced.

"If a man returned to his home and all his shit was sitting outside, he was divorced."
Dude, that's exactly how the hell it works in the States now.
They do make Candy Bouquets, but I think a BeerQuet would be much, much better.
Hey, are the flowers on your blog gonna disappear too?
sable: a beerquet would rock ... a 12-pack of fine imported beers, or a case of the domestic stuff ... good point!
and no, the flowers here will remain ... unless deb steals them ...
hick: she strikes me as a thief ... sneaky look ... LOL
THANK YOU, I MEAN IT DZER...THANK YOU *thumbing nose at deb* nah na na na nah...HA HA HA HA HA HA
