"Cash, cheque or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse. "So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked. "No," she replied, "but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him
legally."

(A MAN'S PERSPECTIVE)
I know I'm not going to understand women.

MARRIAGE SEMINAR
While attending a Marriage Seminar dealing with communication,
Tom and his wife Grace
listened to the instructor,
"It is essential that husbands and wives know each other's likes and dislikes."
He addressed the man,
"Can you name your wife's favorite flower?"
Tom leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, "It's Homepride, isn't it?
CIGARETTES AND TAMPONS
A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles.
The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.
He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.
She directs him down the correct aisle.
A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton
balls and a ball of string on the
counter.
She says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?
He answers, " You see, it's like this,
yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes,
and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling
papers; cause it's sooo-ooo--oo-ooo much cheaper.
So, I figure if I have to roll my own .......... so does she.
WIFE VS. HUSBAND
A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.
An earlier discussion had led to an argument and
neither of them wanted to concede their position.
As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs,
the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"
"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."
W O R D S
A husband
read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day...
30,000 to a man's 15,000.
The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men...
The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?"
CREATION
A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be
so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time.
" The wife responded, "Allow me to explain.
God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me;
God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!
WHO DOES WHAT
A man and his wife were having an argument about who
should brew the coffee each morning.
The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first,
and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee."
The husband said, " You are in charge of cooking around here and
you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee."
Wife replies, "No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible
that the man should do the coffee."
Husband replies, "I can't believe that, show me."
So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament
and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says.........."HEBREWS"
The Silent Treatment
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each
other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day,
he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.
Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper,
"Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it.
The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM
and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and
see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by
the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."

have oral sex at XXX stage show
Two members of the audience attending "the most explicit sex show ever staged in Britain" have reportedly had oral sex in an aisle of the theatre.
Tuesday's opening night at Riverside Studios had already caused controversy for featuring some of the most explicit scenes ever seen on a British stage.
The London Evening Standard reported a man in the audience was given oral sex by one of the actresses, although the company, La Fura Dels Baus, later confirmed the man had been a "plant" who used a prosthesis to fake the sex act.
However, on Wednesday night during the performance a woman, who later gave her name as Mistress Poppy, 33, moved into the aisle and performed a sex act with a man.
After the show she insisted she had no connection with the theatre company and that she was a "professional dominatrix" and porn actress. She said: "I've done this sort of thing before, in porn films and live sex shows, and I would have loved to go up on stage and have full sex there too."
Her sexual partner also denied he was taking part in a pre-planned exercise. The 29-year-old German man, who would only give his name as Michael, said: "Everyone in the audience wanted to do what I did."
A Home Office spokeswoman said: "It does not make a difference if it was a member of the cast or a member of the audience who was involved. Sex in public is an offence."
There were no early departures among the audience, who had paid £25 each, the London Evening Standard reports.

Hatari za kupiga simu kwa more subscribers
Jamaa mmoja ambaye ni mkurugenzi wa kampuni moja kubwa
ya mawasiliano alikaribishwa kutoa speech katika
tamasha moja la vijana lililokuwa limeandaliwa kuhusu
kujiepusha na vitendo vyenye kuweza kusababisha
maradhi ya kisasa.Speech ya mkurugenzi huyu
ilinukuliwa kama ifuatavyo;
Hali ni ngumu sana vijana kwa sababu kila mmoja
anataka kuonja uzuri wa maisha ya kisasa. Mtandao wa
ugonjwa huu ni mkubwa,mimi nashauri muwe makini .
Jitahidini sana kukaa bila kupiga.
Ni muhimu simu zenu mzitunze sana na wala si kupiga
piga kwani hii gharama yake ni kubwa.Kama shida ya
kupiga itakuwa kubwa, basi hakikisha simu yako iko
kwenye kipochi, na hivi vinapatikana kwa wingi na
gharama yake si kubwa.Hii inasaidia kupunguza
uwezekano wa kupata madhara yanayoweza kupatikana
kutokana na mionzi iliyoko katika simu hizi za kisasa.
Ni mwiko kabisa kupiga Voda kwa Voda kwani hii ina
hatari kubwa mno.
Watu wengi simu zenu zina fanya kazi vizuri tu na mna
hamu angalau ya kupibu, lakini hii nayo ni hatari,
kwani mwenzako akionyesha utashi wa kupokea ni rahisi
sana kwako kuamua kupiga kabisa.
Msifikiri mkikaa bila kupiga muda mrefu, eti simu zenu
zitamaliza chaji, hii si kweli.Hakikisha tu kwamba
simcard iko katika hali nzuri,hii ndio ina kumbukumbu
zote na ndio inaongoza mawasiliano yote.
Simu ni simu tu, na madhumuni yake yanafanana.
Usidanganyike na simu kuwa eti ina Kamera au double
skrini. Hizo ni mbwembwe tu.Kuna simu nyingi sana feki
siku hizi zinauzwa zimevishwa cover
mpya,usidanganyike.
Ukiona maisha bila kupiga hayawezekani, tafuta sehemu
inayoaminika na uwe unapiga hapo tu, hii inasaidia
sana kwani simu ukitumia peke yako inadumu zaidi
kuliko ile yenye subscribers wengi."

UMEYASIKIA YA ARUSHA MAMBO YA WAWEKEZAJI AYO
Mwekezaji anapotoa kibano kwa Polisi
Meneja Mkuu wa zamani wa TanzaniteOne anayesota lupango baada ya kutoa mashambulizi na kibano kikali kwa OCD atapimwa kwanza akili yake kujua utimamu wa akili yake.
Mtuhumiwa huyo Joseph Kimble alitoa kibano cha aibu kwa kibosile wa polisi ambacho hakikutarajiwa baada ya Maafisa hao kumzukia katika Ofisi za mauzo ya tanzanite za Hakika Trading Company wiki iliyopita.
Kikosi hicho kikiongozwa na OCD Salawi kilitinga ofisi hizo katika shughuli za kikazi za kumkamata Kimble aliyekuwa anatuhumiwa kwa wizi wa tanzanite uliofanyika hivi karibuni mkoani Arusha.
Cha kushangaza Meneja Mkuu huyo wa enzi zake alianza kutukana matusi mazito mazito kwa Maafisa na jeshi letu la polisi na kuanza kumshambulia kwa kibano kikali OCD huyo na kumjeruhi vibaya.
Kibano hicho cha kudhalilisha jeshi letu kimekuja baada ya kuwepo malalamiko kibao ya Wabongo wachimbaji kusakiziwa mbwa na askari wa kampuni hiyo iliyowekeza katika madini ya Tanzanite na baadhi yao kupigwa risasi.
Kamanda wa Polisi Arusha James Kombe ametonya kuwa mtuhumiwa atapimwa akili kwanza kabla ya kuburuzwa mahakamani kujibu maswali namna alivyodiriki kurusha ngumi na kickboxing kwa maafisa wetu wa Polisi.
Na kama alidiriki kumtia kibano polisi, alikuwa anawafanyia nini wafanyakazi Wabongo enzi hizo akiwa ofisini?

MAMBO YA KATRINA UNAYAONA
Gazeti la washingpost limeandika hivi kuhusu Kimbunga cha Katrina:
WASHINGTON - President Bush's decision to put thousands of active-duty soldiers and Marines on Hurricane Katrina relief duty adds a new dimension to the enormous strain on the military from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Senior military officers said Saturday they have plenty of troops to handle their wide range of missions at home and abroad, and they discounted suggestions that the urgent deployment of soldiers and Marines to the Gulf Coast would interfere with the rotation of combat troops in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan.
"We can handle the overseas war-fight commitment and still defend our homeland and support the Department of Homeland Security simultaneously," Lt. Gen. Steven Blum, chief of the National Guard Bureau, told a Pentagon news conference.
"People say, 'Aren't you stretched too far, aren't you about ready to run out?' There are 200,000 citizen soldier National Guardsmen left with the right kind of skills around this nation" to help with hurricane relief, Blum said.
The active-duty military has about 1.2 million people in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps, of which about 140,000 are in Iraq and nearly 20,000 in Afghanistan. That leaves hundreds of thousands not committed directly to fighting wars, but many of them perform a range of staff functions in the Pentagon and other government agencies and at military headquarters across the nation and around the world.
Lt. Gen. Joseph Inge, deputy commander of Northern Command, told reporters at the Pentagon on Saturday that the Katrina mission would have no negative effect on executing the missions in Iraq or Afghanistan.
"Absolutely not," Inge said.
The ranking Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, Rep. Ike Skelton of Missouri, said that while he has been personally assured by Pentagon officials that the Gulf Coast rescue and recovery effort can be accomplished without disrupting plans for Iraq rotations, he remains worried about the future.
"This effort will clearly increase the overall burden on our military," Skelton said Friday. "The Defense Department's civilian leaders must look at the impact of this and future crises and the ongoing war on the military's future readiness and overall state."
Inge said the Army's 82nd Airborne Division, which already has several infantry battalions in Afghanistan and Iraq or preparing to go there, began dispatching about 2,500 soldiers, including infantry, and support troops, to Louisiana on Saturday. They included most of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
A spokeswoman for the 82nd Airborne, Maj. Amy Hannah, said later that at least 5,000 would be sent from her division. Another spokesman there, Spc. John French, said 5,000 would be sent over the next few days.
The 1st Cavalry Division, from Fort Hood, Texas, is sending about 2,700 soldiers to the Gulf Coast, and the Marines are sending about 2,000 from bases in California and North Carolina. The 4th Infantry Division, which is getting ready to begin a new deployment to Iraq, already has sent some helicopters to Louisiana.
The Air Force is flying missions to the Gulf daily, and the Navy has numerous ships off the Gulf Coast.
Blum said the National Guard was going to send 10,000 more troops than previously planned, bringing the total number of Guardsman involved in the relief effort to 40,000 within the next several days. He said there would be 33,000 in Louisiana and Mississippi by the end of Saturday.
In addition to deployments in Kosovo and Afghanistan, the National Guard is heavily committed to the conflict in Iraq. The Army National Guard has 39,800 soldiers in Iraq and the Air National Guard has about 900. That represents about 30 percent of all U.S. forces in Iraq. Thousands also are operating in Kuwait.
Blum said the only Guard unit he knows of that has been pulled off the list to rotate into Iraq is a small unit whose members live in Gulfport, Miss., which was heavily battered by Hurricane Katrina.
"Many of them, we can't find them," Blum said.
A Guard infantry unit that was training at Camp Shelby, Miss., when Katrina struck has been kept off disaster relief duty so that it can deploy to Iraq as scheduled, Blum said.
