Guest guest Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 After a lot of poking a prodding, I have tried turning my hand to a few humorous essays. I read them aloud to my husband and the loving reply I got was: " Sounds like you feel sorry for yourself, no one is going to find it funny " Well after a massive angst attack, I decided that if I were going out, I was going to take him with me... Thus the following: <A HREF= " http://www.woobeyworld.com/humor4.htm " >http://www.woobeyworld.com/humor4.h\ tm</A> I haven't read it to HIM yet... >evil wicked Bitch Queen type laugh< Cheers!

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Oh, Kathleen, he's not one bit different from American engineers! I've met only one engineer that was a real human being. It's more of a sad commentary on engineers and their single minded selfishness than feeling sorry for you. Anyway that's my take on your piece and my experience with LOTS of engineers. Regards, Sherry P.S. His theory of about why women are attracted to certain men is completely wrong. Women don't even want to know their men do that much less be attracted to it. > After a lot of poking a prodding, I have tried turning my hand to a few > humorous essays.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Sherry You are entitled to your opinion, and to keep in mind your opinion of engineers' single minded selfishness next time you sit down at your computer, get a drink of water from your faucet or open your refrigerator, cook your soap on the stove, flush your toilet and wash your hands, leave your ventilated house to get in your car to go to the grocery store, etc., etc. Please, be my guest, and hark back to the good old days, oh about 1800, before engineers were invented, so you wouldn't have to meet any. We really lived like human beings then! Chris in Maryland, engineer and daughter of an engineer , Sherry Brown <Sherry@A...> wrote: not one bit different from American engineers!

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 Chris, I was referring to their personal relationships as was Chris. Obviously I was stating a personal opinion. I didn't say I didn't like engineers. And has nothing to do with your engineers. Of course engineers have contributed immeasurably to all my creature comforts. Why would you think I believe otherwise? I guess I just don't understand why you would compare apples to oranges ;o) Regards, Sherry > You are entitled to your opinion, and to keep in mind your opinion of > engineers' single minded selfishness next time you sit down at your > computer, get a drink of water from your faucet or open your > refrigerator, cook your soap on the stove, flush your toilet and wash > your hands, leave your ventilated house to get in your car to go to > the grocery store, etc., etc. > > Please, be my guest, and hark back to the good old days, oh about > 1800, before engineers were invented, so you wouldn't have to meet > any.
