My DH has been in and out of the computer room while I've been on the site, and keeps asking me questions. He has a MP3 player that is not working for him. Now he just came in with it again, and when I turned to look at him - he's wearing nothing but a birthday suit!!!! ROTFLMAO What a shock!!!!! My little round man, what a picture!!! MEN ARE SO WEIRD

I think I've known that men are basically weird ever since I can remember cause I was raised with 5 brothers but my 7 sisters and I constantly remind them how lucky they are that we've allowed them to live all these years. My dh is another one that like to run around the house in his birthday suit, mostly when he gets out of the shower in the mornings, as if I care at 7:00 a.m. :re:

That's what I think. He wants your attention. Maybe its the obvious reason for being in his birthday suit, or maybe its because you are paying too much attention to the computer and not enough attention to his problems. I think his is trying shock therapy on you for some reason.

In any event, I think its a very bold way of getting attention. My husband had better not try that!!!!

I am trying not to laugh out loud and now my stomach hurts!!!

Dorothy, my little round man, is exactly that, he is almost bald, is shorter than me by about 3 inches and has grown quite a belly, he could be Santa, he even has the beard. Get the picture??

Jan - he was holding the MP3 in his hands trying to take out the battery, I just turned around and was facing this hairy belly - it was definitely an attention getter that's for sure, unfortunately I burst out laughing, thank heaven I have a wonderful man with a great sense of humor, cause he laughed pretty hard too.

Sounds like your little round hubby is trying to lure you away from the computer room. That may be why he was trying to fix his MP3 player...to serenade you with a love song in his altogether.

If you are anything like me it is easy to "visit" with your online favorites for far too long.

Everyone who got a laugh out of this needs to go see the movie Failure to Launch. I never wanted to see Terry Bradshaw in the buff, but it was hysterical. That's all I'm going to tell you!

Calling in sick to work makes me uncomfortable. No matter how legitimate my excuse, I always get the feeling that my boss thinks I'm lying. On one recent occasion, I had a valid reason but lied anyway, because the truth was just too darned humiliating. I simply mentioned that I had sustained a head injury, and I hoped I would feel up to coming in the next day. By then, I reasoned, I could think up a doozy to explain the bandage on the top of my head.

The accident occurred mainly because I had given in to my wife's wishes to adopt a cute little kitty. Initially, the new acquisition was no problem. Then one morning, I was taking my shower after breakfast when I heard my wife, Deb, call out to me from the kitchen. "Honey! The garbage disposal is dead again. Please come reset it."

"You know where the button is," I protested through the shower pitter-patter and steam. "Reset it yourself!"

"But I'm scared!" she persisted. "What if it starts going and sucks me in?" There was a meaningful pause and then, "C'mon, it'll only take you a second."

So out I came, dripping wet and buck naked, hoping that my silent outraged nudity would make a statement about how I perceived her behavior as extremely cowardly. Sighing loudly, I squatted down and stuck my head under the sink to find the button. It is the last action I remember performing.

It struck without warning, and without any respect to my circumstances.

No, it wasn't the hexed disposal, drawing me into its gnashing metal teeth. It was our new kitty, who discovered the fascinating dangling objects she spied hanging between my legs.

She had been poised around the corner and stalked me as I reached under the sink. And, at the precise moment when I was most vulnerable, she leapt at the toys I unwittingly offered and snagged them with her needle-like claws. I lost all rational thought to control orderly bodily movements, blindly rising at a violent rate of speed, with the full weight of kitten hanging from my masculine region.

Wild animals are sometimes faced with a "fight or flight" syndrome.

Men, in this predicament, choose only the "flight" option. I know this from experience. I was fleeing straight up into the air when the sink and cabinet bluntly and forcefully impeded my ascent. The impact knocked me out cold.

When I awoke, my wife and the paramedics stood over me. Now there are not many things in this life worse than finding oneself lying on the kitchen floor buck naked in front of a group of "been-there, done-that" paramedics.

Even worse, having been fully briefed by my wife, the paramedics were all snorting loudly as they tried to conduct their work, all the while trying to suppress their hysterical laughter... and notsucceeding.

Somehow I lived through it all.

A few days later I finally made it back in to the office, where colleagues tried to coax an explanation out of me about my head injury.

I kept silent, claiming it was too painful to talk about, which it was.

"What's the matter?" they all asked, "Cat got your tongue?"

If they only knew!

Why is it that only the women laugh at this?

Oh Dear! I'm having a hard time typing, I'm laughing too much. I cried all afternoon yesterday as the hospital "lost" my dad but this is bringing me right back up there. Thanks.
