hehehehe! I knew it would come to this
Tim- I hate to disappoint you, but I agree with the first #1 about the toilet seat.
In regards to all the rest, I think Lainie Kazan's delivery of the line from Greek Wedding says it the best ....
" The men may be the head of the house but the women are the neck and they can turn the head anyway they want."

Re: finally rules for women !!!!
Half of those don't even apply to me...LOL
i am female...i own one pair of shoes, 5 pairs of jeans and about 20 gray Tshirts. my only jewlery is the 8 small silver hoops i wear in my ears and my wedding ring. I have to fight with hubby over the right to stay up to watch late night sports, he'd rather 'cuddle'.
i don't cry to get what i want, i just go out and get it.
he has his bathroom, i have mine...the status of the terlet seat is a non issue
i don't get 'headaches' i only refuse when i'm fertile or if my sports team loses  my libido is inextricably linked to the results of my favorite teams.
the only things i shop for are my hobby stuff, yeah some of its girly- like textiles, but thats how i know i should be married to a Man and that there's not something desperately wrong with my hormones.
soap opera guys make me sick, if my hubby ever acted like one of them wishy-washy, sappy, effeminate losers i'd boot his hiney out the door
camping is fun!
now go get me that beer!
i like how they are all posted as #1.. makes it easier for you guys to keep track huh?
Good joke...

i've been able to keep the wine perfectly chilled in the kitchen cupboards- they back up to the outside walls so they stay very cool if we don't leave them cracked open. its great to have wine at the perfect temp. Wish it was like that in the summer.
I've had a couple bags of ice stored on the side door step for 3 weeks now. Why use up the freezer space on ice
