			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nadeera of <a href="http://www.atlantisonetech.com/">Atlantis One</a> forwarded this hilarious mail.</p>
<p><strong>No sex tonight? </strong></p>
<p>I never quite figured out why the sexual urge of men and women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart.</p>
<p>FOR EXAMPLE </p>
<p>One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says &#8220;I don&#8217;t feel like it, I just want you to hold me.&#8221; I said &#8220;WHAT????!!! What was that?!&#8221; So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man.&#8221; She responded to my puzzled look by saying, &#8220;Can&#8217;t you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?&#8221;</p>
<p>Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep. The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on several different very expensive outfits. She couldn&#8217;t decide which one to take so I told her we&#8217;ll just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes, so I said lets get a pair for each outfit. We went onto the jewellery department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you&#8230;she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck.</p>
<p>I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn&#8217;t even know how to play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I said, &#8220;That&#8217;s fine, honey.&#8221; She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement.</p>
<p>Smiling with excited anticipation she finally said, &#8220;I think this is all dear, let&#8217;s go to the cashier.&#8221; I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, &#8220;No honey, I don&#8217;t feel like it.&#8221; Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled &#8220;WHAT???!!!&#8221;</p>
<p>I then said, &#8220;Really honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You&#8217;re just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman.&#8221; And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added, &#8220;Why can&#8217;t you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy you?&#8221;</p>
<p>Apparently I&#8217;m not having sex tonight either.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">
            After every flight, pilots fill out a form called a gripe sheet, which conveys to<br />
            the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair<br />
            or correction. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing<br />
            on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews<br />
            the gripe sheets before the next flight.

        Microsoft to the rescue? A marketing weasel came by and asked me to fix a dead notebook,<br />
        as if I&#8217;m his personal geek slave.
    </p>
<p>
        I said his machine was probably compromised by the Internet Explorer HTML converter<br />
        flaw Microsoft announced last week, which lets malicious Web code take over your PC.<br />
        Was he, by chance, visiting sites he shouldn&#8217;t have been? &#8220;Lemme just check the log<br />
        files for your IP address,&#8221; I said. He looked like he&#8217;d swallowed an Ethernet dongle.<br />
        &#8220;That&#8217;s OK,&#8221; he squeaked, &#8220;I&#8217;ll fix it myself.&#8221;
