<title>Mrs. God's Diary - Day 85,832</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Religious/Mrs-Gods-Diary---Day-85832.350539</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Dear Diary,</p>
<p>God hasn't been keeping me up to date with events very well because I've only just heard that Seth got married recently and had a son called Enosh. God hadn't told me about any other women being around Adam and Eve's place except those he must have made in the land of Nod and since Seth's still living with his mum and dad he must have married one of his sisters! God didn't tell me about those either - only interested in male children really. I suppose it's all right to marry his sister in the circumstances though it seems a little strange to me. But then, if there are no spare women, what other choice would he have?</p>
<p>Enosh is very different from Seth when he was a baby. Much prettier and he had a tooth growing already when he popped out.</p>
<p>By the way, since I last wrote to you I've made four hundred and thirteen more cardigans, fifty-five tapestries and a hundred and eighty seven pairs of socks. I've got the tapestries on the walls and they do look nice, even if I say it myself but God hasn't worn any of the cardigans or the socks and they're taking up a lot of space.</p>
<p>I wish he'd make me some cupboards to keep them all in. It's such a little thing to ask being as how it's so easy for him. He could say &amp;ldquo;Let there be this massive cupboard for my wife to keep her knitting in&amp;rdquo; just like that but he's got no consideration for me.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FReligious%2FMrs-Gods-Diary---Day-85832.350539"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FReligious%2FMrs-Gods-Diary---Day-85832.350539" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Chivalry is Dead, and Women Killed It</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Women/Chivalry-is-Dead-and-Women-Killed-It.313975</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>One day, while flipping through channels, I came upon one of Dave Chappelle&amp;rsquo;s stand up comedy routines.<br /><br />I have to tell you, he had me rolling all the way up until he actually uttered the words, &amp;ldquo;If Chivalry is dead, women killed it.&amp;rdquo;<br /><br />I almost spit all the soda I was drinking out of my mouth onto the TV screen I was so mortified and outraged.  <br /><br />I felt robbed.<br /><br />I&amp;rsquo;d been saying that for years!<br /><br />Now, I know at this point in my article, many sisters may be doing a double take, rereading the above lines as they wonder how I could agree with what could be construed as a sexist comment, but I did agree, and whole-heartedly at that.<br /><br />Why? <br /><br />Because I fear that modern women have been sending men mixed signals for some time now.<br /><br />--We tell the world we value our independence, some of us going so far as to scream at a guy for having the courtesy to hold a door open for us so it doesn't smash us in the face, and yet, when we get married, we expect to be taken care of financially, no matter how much money we ourselves personally make.<br /><br />--In answer to the near domestic slavery of bygone eras, we have become hyper independent, with an &amp;ldquo;I don&amp;rsquo;t need no man&amp;rdquo; attitude, that has started to make our valued partners feel like little more than a walking sex toy. <br /><br />--We want equality, but the man has to pay for every date or he is looked down upon. <br /><br />--We want to be put on pedestals, but frown on a woman who wants to do the same for her man. <br /><br />--We want all our needs met, but when a man expresses a desire that is not feminine (because hey, they are men, not women) we scoff, demean them and make fun.<br /><br />The largest of all these offenses has to be that we, more often than not, place the value of a man in his wallet and not in his soul.<br /><br />Real life example:   <br /><br />Debra had quite the dilemma. She&amp;rsquo;d finally met her soul mate. The one! He was attractive, fun, kind and loving. On top of it all, he was a civic minded firefighter, beloved in his community, even liked kids and animals. She was falling and fast. <br /><br />The problem?   He had a low paying job.<br /><br />&amp;ldquo;I make eighty-thousand dollars a year &amp;ndash; I want a mate who makes at least that much,&amp;rdquo; She sniffed.<br /><br />Debra dumped him, but they remained casual friends. <br /><br />Some time passed and he got engaged. He invited Debra to the engagement party, and when she arrived at his home she was astonished to discover he lived in a mansion &amp;ndash; he was a millionaire and only volunteered as a fireman!<br /><br />He had kept his wealth a secret so he would be assured that the woman he was with loved him for him and not his money.<br /><br />In the end, he found the woman who was perfect for him&amp;mdash;the one who accepted him as a fireman.<br /><br />Talk about a karmic slap in the face!  <br /><br /> Sadly, many American women do just this sort of thing &amp;ndash; they toss aside the garbage man with a heart a gold for a surgeon who yes, makes a 100 K a year, but odds are when doctor Stud muffin gets bored, he will cheat on you with that blond hottie down in Cardiology. Meanwhile, a good man slips by quietly unnoticed as we cry and moan about the fact that there are no good men.<br /><br />Another problem is that our men appear to have to place their emotional wants and needs on the back burner in relationships, when we should be more understanding of those needs.<br /><br />A good example of this is how men have to have space. <br /><br />They do. <br /><br />It makes them feel independent and not chained--this is very important to the male psyche, however, when a man says this to us, what do we do? <br /><br />We get all freaked out, call our girlfriends and make him feel like a jerk for a very legitimate male need. <br /><br />I've even been privy to occasions where a man will tell his woman, "Baby, I am going to go up the street and see so and so"&amp;hellip;<br /><br />And home girl exclaims, "No, hell you&amp;rsquo;re not!&amp;rdquo;<br /><br />Okay.  Let&amp;rsquo;s back that up.<br /><br />Say you told your man  &amp;ldquo;Hey, I am going to the store with so and so and I'll be back in a minute."<br /><br />What would you do if he told you, "No, hell you&amp;rsquo;re not!&amp;rdquo;<br /><br />The brother would be sleeping on the couch. <br /><br />How is that fair, again?<br /><br />Two grown people, who love and trust one another, should be able to make plans without constantly having to consult with their partner. <br /><br />To be sure, no girl or guy should be out every night -- if that were the case, why be in a relationship? But, you should be able to have a guy or girls night out on occasion without having to check in.<br /><br />What if he cheats on me, you ask?<br /><br />If you married someone you cannot trust, whose fault is that?<br /><br />We tend to know very early on if the partner we have chosen is trustworthy. I know a woman who married a man even after learning he once had a drug problem and had cheated on his ex wife. Now that he is abusing drugs heavily again and sleeping around she is pissed -- but she shares part of the blame in her own fix.<br /><br />If you chose someone with whom you can give your whole heart and all your trust, they do not need a leash.<br /><br />Men value their independence just like we do, and they should have a healthy outlet to express it.<br /><br />Women often accuse men of double standards, and while this is true, we have a few of our own.<br /><br />We want our men to be there emotionally for us, but if lets say, our man is going through a mid life crisis, we poke fun, ridicule and withdraw our affections, telling them to get over it.<br /><br />If you were PMSing and your guy said, &amp;ldquo;get over it&amp;rdquo; &amp;ndash; well, the funeral would be lovely.<br /><br />But we have no room for empathy or sympathy for male chemical emotional cycles and fluctuations, which is essentially what a mid life crisis (it is both psychological and physiological). <br /><br />We are constantly wanting our men to reassure us that they love us, find us beautiful, attractive &amp;ndash; yet if a man reaches out for this same comfort, we tell him he is filled with &amp;ldquo;testosterone&amp;rdquo;, and wants his &amp;ldquo;ego stroked.&amp;rdquo;<br /><br />Who doesn&amp;rsquo;t want their ego stroked once in a while? <br /><br />And yes&amp;mdash;men are filled with testosterone &amp;ndash; so what? This isn&amp;rsquo;t an inherently bad thing. <br /><br />Yes ladies, our men&amp;rsquo;s emotional needs matter too.<br /><br />This is not to say that men are totally innocent in their portion of bad behaviors in the dating game (that&amp;rsquo;s another article for another time), I am merely saying that women are not owning up to our portion of guilt in the ongoing battle of the sexes.<br /><br />I made my personal realization a long time ago, after which, I was able to let down my guard and land an amazing man.<br /><br />My husband and are I are both very independent natured and he knows that I trust and love him. He is free to do what he likes, all I have to do is know so I don't worry, but it's not like he has to consult with me.<br /><br />I let him be him, and he lets me be me.<br /><br />Byproduct?  We are inseparable. He knows he is free, but he chooses to be by my side -- and I by his side.<br /><br />It feels good knowing that, if he had a choice, he chooses to be with me.<br /><br />In time, our dynamic may change, and that's okay too--nothing is static, we all evolve and grow -- but I will accept him as he comes to me, faults and all, fears and all, needs in all, whether he has money or not.<br /><br />Sisters, I am not even implying that we should run after jobless crack heads or wife beaters, I am talking about giving decent, blue collar working gentlemen a chance. You may find in him, a man who will love you like there is no tomorrow and treats you like a Queen, which is something all the money in the world won&amp;rsquo;t buy.<br /><br />If we can accept that doctors and lawyers who look like Denzel Washington are not the only men worth marrying, maybe relations between the sexes will improve all around, but we have to come to the bargaining table willing to listen, willing to accept blame, and, in the end, willing to learn.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FWomen%2FChivalry-is-Dead-and-Women-Killed-It.313975"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FWomen%2FChivalry-is-Dead-and-Women-Killed-It.313975" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>17 Famous People Suspected of Having Superpowers</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Celebrity/17-Famous-People-Suspected-of-Having-Superpowers.276189</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>To celebrate the new season of NBC's Heroes, my friend Mark deGuzman and I began analyzing history books and tabloids, trying to find the evolved humans among us. We were especially encouraged when a Heroes graphic novel included Benjamin Franklin, who had the power of electrical absorption. Here is our list of suspected evolved humans:</p>
<h3><strong>Harriet Tubman</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/1_6.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Former slave and Underground Railroad conductor</p>
<p><strong>Abilitie(s): </strong>Super speed and/or invisibility</p>
<p>How else could this amazing woman manage to transport hundreds of slaves undetected? Although most evolved humans so far have been shown to only have one natural power, "Moses," as they called her, may have had either or both of these abilities.</p>
<h3><strong>Genghis Khan</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/2_6.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Mongol founder and emperor</p>
<p><strong>Abilitie(s): </strong>Mass impregnation</p>
<p>A British man named Tom Robinson was told that he was a direct descendant of the ruler and many, many, many kings have claimed to be descended from him as well. Genghis Khan didn't just invade when he took over a land, he would actually repopulate the land with little G. Khans. Talk about dominant genes.</p>
<h3><strong>Leonardo daVinci</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/3_10.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Artist, inventor, military strategist, anatomist, everything</p>
<p><strong>Abilitie(s): </strong>Intuitive aptitude</p>
<p>daVinci definitely could've been the Sylar of his day. He could understand things that didn't even exist yet! This would explain his keen knowledge of and expertise in multiple fields. He was definitely a Renaissance man.</p>
<h3><strong>Michelangelo</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/4_5.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Artist, architect, engineer</p>
<p><strong>Abilitie(s):</strong> Intuitive attitude</p>
<p>Maybe he was angry that he wasn't good at as many things as Leo was. Or he was just angry. Michelangelo wanted to concentrate on sculpting and was furious when Pope Julius II told him to go paint the Sistine Chapel's ceiling. He was melancholy, arrogant and had a ridiculous temper. But who can blame a man who was caned in the street by a pope?</p>
<h3><strong>Michael Jackson</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/5_4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Musician</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Appearance alteration</p>
<p>He's just not very good at it. MJ has changed his look several times, and by look, we mainly mean his nose. He has also managed to change ethnicities and reinvent himself fashion-wise over his long career.</p>
<h3><strong>Chuck Norris</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/6_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Martial artist and actor</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s):</strong> Empathic mimicry</p>
<p>Because the character who can take other characters' powers is always the best. (Like Peter Petrelli.) And considering he trained with Bruce Lee, he has had some awesome people to empathize with. Thanks to his mimicry, Chuck has multiple powers including the power to divide by zero, slam a revolving door, and not read books, but stare them down until he gets the information he wants.</p>
<h3><strong>Sean Combs</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/7_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Rapper, actor, entrepreneur, producer, and more</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s):</strong> Name shifting</p>
<p>Besides being able to have six or seven occupations at once, this man can also have multiple names at once. Puff Daddy? Puffy? P. Diddy? Diddy? Duddy? No one knows who this guy will be next!</p>
<h3><strong>Amy Winehouse</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/8_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Singer-songwriter</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Rapid self-degeneration</p>
<p>No one has used alcohol, cigarettes, and crack cocaine quite like Amy. That is, no one has used them in combination with heroin, ecstasy, ketamine, self-harm, depression, eating disorders and soulful singing ... the ability she really needs to stick to.</p>
<h3><strong>Amelia Earhart</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/9_4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Aviator</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Access to parallel dimension or space-time manipulation</p>
<p>If Amelia had these abilities, that could account for her disappearance. Perhaps she went to an alternate universe where people can fly? Or perhaps she traveled to some time in the future? Past? Well, wherever she disappeared to, she may have come back to us in the form of Jet Man.</p>
<h3><strong>Heidi Montag </strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/10_2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Reality television personality, aspiring person-with-another-occupation</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>None</p>
<p>Self-explanatory.</p>
<h3><strong>Barbara Walters</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/11_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Journalist, writer</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s):</strong> Lacrimal manipulation</p>
<p>Everyone cries when Barbara interviews them and that's no coincidence. The only person who can possibly resist Barbara's powers might be Rosie O'Donnell because she's a psychopath. Or because she no longer has a heart.</p>
<h3><strong>PETA</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/peta_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Animal lovers, crazy people</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Superior delusion and lack of compassion for humans</p>
<p>They call themselves The Organization. While animals don't deserve abuse, they don't deserve the attention PETA gives them. These people actually thought Ben &amp;amp; Jerry's might come out with breast milk ice cream. Then again, this is the same group that compared chickens dying to the Holocaust and complained that a donkey was used in warfare without protesting the loss of human life.</p>
<h3><strong>David Blaine</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/13_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Magician, endurance artist and professional "delusionist." (My Mom came up with that one.)</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Intuitive disappointment</p>
<p>All this guy does is do boring things for long periods of time and finds new and interesting ways to use the bathroom in public. And then when he does something almost exciting like a "dive of death," it ends up being the "bungee hop of death." Thanks for the entertainment, Dave.</p>
<h3><strong>John McCain</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/14_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Senator, presidential candidate</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s):</strong> Immortality or superior durability</p>
<p>There's got to be a reason this guy has lived so long. And no, I'm not saying that just because he's old. He endured five and a half years being tortured as a prisoner of war in Viet Nam. The knowledge that he will never die probably helped him make his vice presidential decision.</p>
<h3><strong>Barack Obama</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/15_2.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>Senator, presidential candidate</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Change</p>
<p>We're not sure what kind of power he has, if any. But this is the one he advertises. Perhaps he isn't an evolved human at all. He's just ... some guy.</p>
<h3><strong>Sarah Palin</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/16_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Governor, vice presidential candidate</p>
<p><strong>Abiltie(s): </strong>Media magnetism, cryogenesis, telescopic vision and/or light manipulation</p>
<p>We have not yet identified what exactly Governor Palin's abilities are or how many of them she has. She has clearly demonstrated media magnetism, but the other abilities may have been expressed while she was out of the spotlight and governing Alaska. Her cryogenesis has been largely responsible for maintaining Alaska's snowy grounds, her light manipulation for aurora borealis, and her telescopic vision to see Russia from her house. On a side note, while the governor is quite adept at creating ice, she is not in fact responsible for the creation of Hillary Clinton.</p>
<h3><strong>Joe Bidden? Biden?</strong></h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/27/17_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>Who?</strong></p>
<p>During our discussions, Mark actually spelled Biden's name wrong when he suggested that he had the power of "Who?" Proves a point. But perhaps this is simply Biden's demonstration of one of the coolest abilities an evolved human can have ... invisibility.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FCelebrity%2F17-Famous-People-Suspected-of-Having-Superpowers.276189"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FCelebrity%2F17-Famous-People-Suspected-of-Having-Superpowers.276189" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Political/Six-Political-Dinosaurs-of-Our-Times.254997</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Politicians, on the other hand, have not existed quite so long. Are they an endangered species? How long will it take for them to be extinct? They may be here for a while, so here are six types you need to know:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<h3>Palinosaur <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/palinosaurus_2.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3>
This dinosaur has dagger like teeth and sharp claws. It eats pit bulls for dinner. She strikes at her enemies with sudden quickness and ferociousness.</li>
<li>
<h3>McCainotrops <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/mccainotrops_1.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
With one large horn coming out of his thick head located just above his right eye, this four-legged body dinosaur is strong and sturdy. The McCainotrops is not afraid to fight when threatened. </li>
<li>
<h3>Obamadactyl <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/obamadactyl_1.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
A high-flying dinosaur with enormous wingspan. Capable of swooping down at its victims with tremendous speed. The Obamadactyl makes enchanting sounds during the mating season. </li>
<li>
<h3>Bidaurid<br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/b_4.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3>
A duck-billed dinosaur, this friendly plant eater is one of the most sociable of the dinosaur species. It is known to settle disputes with dinosaurs that have territorial problems. </li>
<li>
<h3>Bushosaurus<br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/bushosaurus_1.jpg" alt="" /><br /></h3>
Blustery and huge, this dinosaur is one of the largest and longest around. It has one of the smallest brains for such a huge body. It eats all day and is extremely vulnerable to attack by its predators.</li>
<li>
<h3>Cheneysaur<br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/09/14/chenasaur_1.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
The most dangerous carnivore in existence. It stands over 40 feet tall and has lethal, hatchet like teeth. Cheneysaur has an enormous head and very strong body. It has a long tail and reduced forelimbs. It is extremely aggressive and is constantly on the attack. </li>

<![CDATA[<p>Do you want to get the attention of your friends, co-workers, and the kids? Learn a few tricks using a bottle of soft drink to do so. Bottles of soft drinks are often used for a variety of parlor games. It is also use in playing truth and consequence and many others. Amuse your friends and most especially the kids with these simple tricks. You can do these in the canteen, at the office, at school, at home and anywhere else.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<h4>Lifting a bottle using a straw only</h4>
To perform this, we need an empty bottle of soft drink and a straw.<br /><br /> <img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/0_13.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />Challenge anyone to lift the empty bottle of soft drink using the straw without tying or holding it. Here's how to do it. (See photo below) Fold one end of the straw about an inch and insert it to the bottle slowly.<br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/1_3.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/2_4.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br /> The folded straw served as a hook enabling it to lift the bottle. After lifting the bottle, you can actually swing the bottle to the left and to the right or back and forth.  You can perfect this trick by regularly practicing it.   <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/3_13.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li>
<h4>Adding a spoonful of water to a water-filled soft drink bottle</h4>
In doing this trick, we'll be needing a water-filled bottle of soft drink, a spoon, a piece of paper and water.<br /><br /> <img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/4_2.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />Challenge anyone to add a teaspoon of water on the water-filled bottle without spilling. Of course, they will wonder where to put the additional water because the bottle is already filled. Here's how to do this simple but amazing trick. Place the piece of paper on the mouth of the bottle.<br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/5_3.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br /> Turn the bottle upside down. The water content of the bottle won't spill/leak because the piece of paper serves as stopper. <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/6_2.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />Now, you can add a teaspoon of water in the bottle.   <br /><br /><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/7_1.jpg" alt="" /></li>
<li>
<h4>Soft drink drinking contest using two straws</h4>
<img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/08/29/8_2.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br />Challenge anyone to drink using two straws - one straw inside the bottle and the other on the outside. Bet a thousand dollar for a challenger who can drink or at least reduce the content of the bottle.</li>
</ol>

<title>Where Are You Going? I Thought Tonight Was The Night</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Relationship/Where-Are-You-Going-I-Thought-Tonight-Was-The-Night.204201</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Do you find yourself saying that a lot? Does every "special" date (you know, the third or fourth one or even the first if you are impetuous and particularly fit), no matter how promising, suddenly go horribly wrong when you invite the wondrous person back to your&amp;nbsp;place for, er, coffee? Maybe you don't realise that you are actually practising Household Object Safe Sex ie there are items in your living zone the presence of which pretty much guarantee that no one is going to&amp;nbsp;grace your home&amp;nbsp;long enough to take off his or her coat, let alone anything else.&amp;nbsp;There are certain things that, &amp;nbsp;either on display or in&amp;nbsp;locations where they will be easily found by only mildly inquisitive visitors, will definitely put the maximum damper on your love life, so either bin them, hide them well or sneak them into the room of someone you think could do with losing out on a few amorous encounters. Here is your Unlucky Seven of guaranteed passion killers.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<h4>Supplies of medicine for assorted off-putting ailments</h4>
It's not just the fifteen different kinds of haemorrhoid ointment or big bottles of lotion for treating pubic lice that can send a potential partner shrieking into the night. Almost anyone's romantic ardour is going to be a bit dampened if they discover that you not only suffer from fungal toenail infections but have to put those charcoal pads in your underwear to minimize the effects of your persistent flatulence and repeatedly blast the wax from your ears with something not unlike an industrial pressure hose. </li>
<li>
<h4>Really desperate prolefood</h4>
Own-brand oven chips, sliced white and economy instant powdered tea, boil-in-the-bag curries, tinned pies full of mystery meat and no fruit and veg apart from dented tins of baked beans do not give a hot date the best impression. He or she will think that being taken out for dinner by you will involve a trip to some obscure chain of fast-food restaurants where the cabaret consists of getting mugged for your mobile phone. &amp;nbsp; </li>
<li>
<h4>Enormous collection of self-help books</h4>
Especially if they are all called things like It's OK to be Desperate and Needy, Why All Men Are Beasts Who Won't Commit, How To Get Married in 30 Days or, if you are male, Coping With Impotence, Make Any Woman Do Really Depraved Stuff With You or Masculinity In Crisis: It's All Women's Fault. Mind you, books about deranged conspiracy theories, cuckoo Secrets of the Lost Tribe Down The Road&amp;nbsp;or ways of making it to assistant deputy head of the stationery cupboard before you're 45 don't give a great impression either. &amp;nbsp; </li>
<li>
<h4>Indications that you are an enthusiastic member of a peculiar religious cult</h4>
Such as a large and baleful portrait of a notorious cult leader, badly-printed flyers full of spelling mistakes and bizarre claims&amp;nbsp;that are obviously there to be handed out to visitors, and asking your guest to participate in a strange ritual before eating or drinking anything.&amp;nbsp; </li>
<li>
<h4>Alarming pets</h4>
Whether it's a dozen leaping, baying, slobbering dogs that are all called things like Lung-Ripper, Psycho and Very Naughty or a tarantula, scorpion or venomous snake that's allowed free run of the house, not many people are reassured by claims that "He/She *likes* you, honestly. He/she doesn"t usually take people's limbs off or pump deadly poison into them the first time&amp;nbsp;they meet him/her.' &amp;nbsp; </li>
<li>
<h4>Revolting squalor</h4>
Now I'd be the first to agree that excessive housework is a social-cultural trap designed to keep women enslaved by guilt and all the rest of it, and that men already know that life is too short to dust the light fittings twice a day, but certain things go way beyond... Stained underwear all over the place, a splotch of long-dried-but-never-cleared-up vomit, all-singing-all-dancing vermin infestations around a teetering pile of unwashed dishes: your hot date won't just flee, he/she will probably consider calling some sort of community care official in. &amp;nbsp; </li>
<li>
<h4>Corpse of previous lover, stuffed</h4>
This is not OK even if you did tell your new friend your family name was Bates.</li>

<title>Coffee with Kofi, Mr. President?</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Political/Coffee-with-Kofi-Mr-President.150249</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>A few years ago there were a lot of what became known as 'Bushisms' floating around the internet and appearing in various email boxes and on websites. I must confess that some of these were often made up and so ridiculous that they ceased to be amusing. At least to me they did.</p>
<p>The following tale is one that I came across while doing some research on another project.  It made me laugh so much that I had to relate it here.</p>
<p>Is it true? Well, probably not, but who knows?</p>
<p>Imagine the scenario: The President is in conference with one of his high ranking advisers.</p>
<p><strong>Mr President:</strong> Tell me, who is the President of China?</p>
<p><strong>Adviser:</strong> Hu is.</p>
<p><strong>Mr President:</strong> That's what I asked you. Who is?</p>
<p><strong>Adviser:</strong> Hu is, Mr President.</p>
<p><strong>Aside:</strong>(Hu Jintao is the president of China, but YOU knew that didn't you?)</p>
<p><strong>Mr President:</strong> (Becoming exasperated)  Tell me, who is the president of China?</p>
<p>The conversation goes round and round until the Adviser gets sick of it.</p>
<p><strong>Adviser:</strong> Let's call Kofi  (Meaning Kofi Annan, United Nations Secretary General that was)</p>
<p><strong>Mr President: </strong>Great idea, yes, let's have coffee.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FPolitical%2FCoffee-with-Kofi-Mr-President.150249"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purpleslinky.com%2FJokes%2FPolitical%2FCoffee-with-Kofi-Mr-President.150249" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<![CDATA[<p>The common problem that people of today are facing is the grammatical error they commit every time they use the English language.  I cannot hide the fact that I am also one of those people. The abuse made with this language is very evident; even those people that live in the United Kingdom are guilty of it. I already saw some of them, and I would just like to share them to you.</p>

<p>They are just a couple of the mistakes that people commit around the world. As we always say, &amp;ldquo;no one is perfect.&amp;rdquo; If you have some of your own experience of seeing some funny signage, please do share.

<title>Five Reasons Why Women Still Can't Do Without Men</title>
<link>http://www.purpleslinky.com/Jokes/Relationship/Five-Reasons-Why-Women-Still-Cant-Do-Without-Men.131449</link>

<![CDATA[<ol> 
<li> 
<h3>The Fuss Factor</h3>
 She needs to fuss.  She&amp;rsquo;s genetically programmed this way.  She fusses over him about everything.  From the way he wears his hair and tucks in his shirt to what he eats and what colour underwear suits him.  Logically it&amp;rsquo;s almost the same as fussing a pet.  But because she can multitask, she makes him feel wanted and expands her fussing energy all at the same time.  That goes for the pet as well.<br /></li>
 
<li> 
<h3>Task-Oriented-One-Track Mind</h3>
 It doesn&amp;rsquo;t take rocket science to understand him.  He&amp;rsquo;s straightforward and can take simple instructions.  If she needs to reach the high shelf, he&amp;rsquo;s there.  If she needs the sink fixed, he&amp;rsquo;s there.  If she needs to rearrange the living room 20 times, he&amp;rsquo;s there.  Because she is fickle and can never make up her mind, his simple-mindedness matches her perfectly. </li>
 
<li> 
<h3>He&amp;rsquo;s Tough on the Outside, Mushy on the Inside</h3>
 He amuses her.  His macho image is defenseless against that little droopy-eyed puppy.  He goes soft all of a sudden, melts like butter and even tears. It&amp;rsquo;s also amusing to see how rugged hands can become so gentle when he&amp;rsquo;s fumbling with a newborn.  For all the pain he caused, charge it to his credit card.  But for that childlike innocence on his face ... priceless.<br /></li>
 
<li> 
<h3>For Reaction</h3>
 Another point of amusement, to test how he responds to her ridiculous questions.  Do you think I&amp;rsquo;m fat?  Do I look prettier than her?  Who is more important, your mother or I?  Tricky but interesting.  Sneaky but pure entertainment.  Forget cable, she has more fun watching him scrambling for the right answers.<br /> </li>
 
<li> 
<h3>Without Him ...</h3>
 There may be world peace but there may be nothing to gripe about!  He is the subject that transcends geographical borders.  Highly controversial and intensely engaging, women all over the world talk about him.  Like it or not, whether she brags or gripes, he is one hot tag. </li>
