WHAT A GIRL NOTICES

According to writer Lisa Jones, there are 20 things women look at when they see a man.

The first thing women notice, she says, is a well-muscled left forearm -- located above the hand where a wedding ring may or may not be.

Other things we notice right away include ...

• Skin tone, particularly a slight tan.
• The way you walk
• The way you look in jeans
• Your shoulder muscles
• The accessories you're wearing
• Your eyes

HORROR MOVIE RULES

This year, Turner Classic Movies and American Movie Classics -- among other cable networks -- are celebrating Halloween by running a bunch of horror movies.

Here are some great rules to remember while watching your horror flicks this weekend:

Be good -- The meanie, the jerk and everyone else won't make it to the end.

Don't bully -- It doesn't matter if you're in high school, college or if you're 50 years old. If you bully someone to the point of public humiliation, they'll snap and get revenge on you.

Lie to the cops -- If something weird is after you, like a monster, vampire or even a clown, tell the cops it's a fire or something normal. The police won't rush out to your frantic call about zombies trying to break in your house.

Fight! -- When confronted by the killer, don't run and hide. Instead, fight! If you hide in the closet or under the bed, you'll get slaughtered.

Choose vacations spots wisely -- Never vacation in the woods or a secluded area. It's an open invitation to psychos and cannibal hillbillies. And, as a side note, make sure your cell phone works.

Ways To Fight The Flu (Posted 3:00 AM, 10/30/2009)

Here we are, right in the middle this year's flu season. Take action now to boost your immune system -- before it's too late ... Get the Shot -- According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the most powerful tool for preventing flu -- both regular and swine -- is the flu shot. The shot revs up your immune system and prevents infection in most cases. Go Herbal -- Enhance immune function by taking immune-boosting herbs. Some stuff to look for at health food stores includes Andrographis, Echinacea and Ginseng. Sleep -- Get at least seven hours of sleep a night. There's no getting out of it. Sleep deprivation impairs immune function and increases risk of illness. Eat the Good Stuff -- Eat less junk food and more fruits and vegetables. Exercise -- Lots of research shows that moderate physical activity boosts the immune system. Picture Your Health -- It might sound crazy, but visualizing your immune system growing stronger and devouring cold and flu viruses actually helps. Source: The Bachelor Guy

6 THINGS A GUY WILL NEVER TELL

Guys like to keep the door to their thoughts closed and locked. Why? Because they're afraid of what trouble would spill out if we women knew everything they keep inside! Womens Health magazine asked a guy to let us take a look around inside their heads. Check it out ...

6. They like girly stuff. Like The Bachelor, cosmopolitans and the Food Network.

5. They like to, um, go solo. They'd prefer to get busy with us, but their hormones sometimes demand a little release even when we're not around.

4. They have hang-ups, including the way they look and how successful they are.

3. They like role reversals. They wish we'd buy them a drink, call them, send them flowers, even initiate sex. Just take on the role of predator sometimes!

2. They need alone time. Not every day, just sometimes.

1. They love us! They may be shy about saying it, but it doesn't mean they don't feel it.

DO'S AND DON'TS OF DATING A RICH GIRL

If you're going to date a woman, why not date a rich one?

According to Made Man, here are some do's and don'ts to keep in mind when dating a woman with money:

DO Cook Her Dinner -- Women with trust funds have the privilege of eating out all the time, and at the finest restaurants. So, do something special in her eyes... cook something yourself.

DON'T Hate Her Little Dog -- You'll probably hate her little yipping rat of a dog, but you can never let on. Cover up by keeping treats around all the time. It'll keep the dog quiet and make you look like a generous dog-loving champ.

DO Know How To Dress and Where -- You don't have to break the bank and buy tons of brand name designer clothing. Don't try to be something you're not, but do make sure to dress appropriately when at special events.

DON'T Talk (Complain) About Money -- Stay relaxed. Even if your lack of money is a huge issue, don't mention it. It is more important to appear motivated and crazy about her than anything else. That's all she's looking for from you.

Worst Halloween Candy (Posted 3:00 AM, 10/29/2009)

Every Halloween, kids -- and even some juvenile adults -- fill up their trick-or-treat bags with loads of candy. We take the bags home and chow down until we're left with the undesirables. You know, the Circus Peanuts or the black licorice. You get the idea. Well, The Huffington Post compiled a list of the "9 Grossest Kinds of Candy No Adult Should Give Out on Halloween." Each one is up for debate, but their list is as follows: Wax bottle candy Pumpkin-shaped candy corn Necco Wafers Fruit-flavored Tootsie Rolls Circus Peanuts Bit-O-Honey Dad's Root Beer Barrels Gum Drops Individually wrapped Sesame Crunch

HALLOWEEN COSTUME DO'S & DON'TS

Before you decide what to wear this year, check out Glamour magazine's Do's and Don'ts for Halloween costumes:

DO:

• Save skimpy looks for the bedroom. Lingerie is not a Halloween costume! If big-time flirting is in your plans, try a tastefully seductive costume like a sexy secret agent.

• Be creative. Seriously, how many more witches or sexy cats do we need? BO-ring!

• Keep it simple. Or you'll spend your whole night trying to explain your random getup. Wear just a fancy mask or oversized sunglasses for an easy, fun look.

• Dress up your eyes. Halloween's a perfect excuse to test-drive glamorous makeup.

• Use the occasion to bust out an evening gown. Most of us don't get chances to wear black-tie threads. Wear a long, fancy gown and tell everyone you're an Oscar winner.

DON'T:

• Dress up as your frenemy. It might be fun imitating your crazy co-worker, but they won't appreciate the joke!

• Supersize it. One wrong move in a big, bulky outfit and you could hurt someone!

• Use body paint if you're planning to get busy. Skip the full body makeup if you think you might be smooching (or more!). Getting glittery goop all over your guy isn't sexy.

TOP BACHELOR PARTY DESTINATIONS

According to WannaHaves, here are some of the best bachelor party destinations:

5. Vancouver, Canada -- It's great for for clubbing and spotting celebrities.

4. Chicago, Illinois -- If you go in summer, you can treat friends to a Chicago Cubs Game. In winter, you can't go wrong chugging beer in the pubs.

3. South Beach, Florida -- The most beautiful women on the planet live here. Enjoy them now ... while you can.

2. Montreal, Canada -- A surprising entry on this list ... Montreal has some awesome clubs.

1. Las Vegas, Nevada -- Las Vegas is, of course, the number one bachelor party destination. Drink, smoke, party and gamble.

THE YANKEES BUY ANOTHER TRIP TO THE WORLD SERIES

This year's World Series is set -- the Philadelphia Phillies versus the New York Yankees.

One reason why much of America hates the New York Yankees is the huge salaries it hands out to players.

Over the off-season, the Yankees signed pitchers A.J. Burnett and C.C. Sabathia and first baseman Mark Teixeira to a combined $423.5 million in long-term deals.

Alex Rodriguez is working through the 10-year, $275 million deal he signed in 2008.

And, baseball doesn't have a salary cap like other professional sports, so rich teams like the Yankees, Mets and Cubs can overpay for players.

For example, the Philadelphia Phillies are in the fourth-biggest market for sports and spent a team record $111 million in 2009.

The Yankees' payroll is almost twice that of the Phillies -- and $64 million higher than the New York Mets, who have the second-highest payroll in baseball.

Another sickening fact: Alex Rodriguez will make $33 million this season, just in salary, which is $2 million more than the entire payroll for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

So, enjoy your post-season success, New York Yankees fans. Your team paid enough for it.

5. Ask him once a week, "So, where do we stand?"

WORST HORROR MOVIES

Some horror movies are awesome. Others are bad. And, still others are pathetic wastes of time.

Life is short. Stick to the awesome. Avoid pathetic horror movies like the plague.

According to Moviefone, here are the worst horror movies of all time:

5. Psycho (1998) -- A shot-for shot remake of Alfred Hitchcock's classic in color. What could go wrong?

4. Two Thousand Maniacs (1964) -- A Georgia town invites six "Yankees" (not the baseball team) to a Civil War celebration. The poor Yankees then get gruesomely whacked.

3. Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000) -- Some students get lost in the woods in an unbelievably bad sequel.

2. Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959) -- This film is famous for being the worst movie in the history of movies.

1. Halloween (2007) -- Another mess of a remake. Rob Zombie tried to redo John Carpenter's brilliant original.

7 Dating Lines Decoded (Posted 3:00 AM, 10/22/2009)

Anyone who's ever navigated the dating world knows that the language of love isn't always ... well, direct. That's why single people spend agonizing hours analyzing e-mails and voicemails from dates, trying to figure out what they're really trying to say ... MSN Chemistry writer Laura Gilbert got a bunch of dating experts to decode some common dating lines -- so you can spend less time wondering and more time communicating: 1. Line: "I'd love to stay out, but I have to get up really early tomorrow." What it means: "Sorry, you just don't float my boat." Of course, if it's 2 a.m. or your date follows up with, "But let's get together this weekend," the fact that they want to end the date is no biggie. But if your date is ready to duck out super-early, they may sense there's no connection and not want to drag the date out. 2. Line: "I'm just not ready for a relationship." What it means: "I'm just not ready for a relationship ... with you." It sucks when someone you like tells you they're not looking to seriously date anyone. But it probably means, "I don't love you, so we should break up." When this person does meet someone they connect with, they'll be ready for a relationship! 3. Line: "I'd love to get together, but I'm really busy with work right now." What it means: "I'm trying to think of a nice way to blow you off." Of course, your date could have a full schedule. But if they don't offer any alternate days to hang out, they're really telling you that they'd rather not hang out with you. If they don't make an effort to pencil you in, it's time to write them off! 4. Line: "So, gotten any funny e-mails on Match.com lately?" What it means: "Are you interested in seeing each other exclusively?" It's tough to ask, "Are you seeing anyone else?" But with online dating, you can figure out if someone's been checking for new dates. If your date asks about your online activities, they probably want to ask, "Do you want to see each other exclusively?" 5. Line: "So, want to meet for coffee?" What it means: "Want to meet for a coffee and then have dinner if we like each other?" It's always smart to schedule a short date when you first meet a new person. You don't want to get stuck at dinner for hours if things aren't clicking. 6. Line: "I'm meeting my friends for a drink -- want to come?" What it means: "I really like you and want to know if you get along with my friends." It may sound casual, but your date is saying they're cool being seen with you and want to see how you relate to their friends. It may be intimidating, but it should boost your ego! 7. Line: "Why don't you come over and I'll cook for you?" What it means: "Ready to get physical?" Cooking for someone is a show of intimacy: The person is obviously very comfortable with you. Of course, there's the fact that you'll be just a few steps from the bedroom. If it's early on in your dating, it might be too intimate, but if you're ready to go further, this could be the night!

TYPES OF GUYS TO AVOID

Some men should come with "Avoid at all costs" emblazoned on their foreheads, but, remarkably we often don't see these guys coming.

Lucky for you, here's a some easy-to-spot, types (of guys) to avoid -- no flashing neon signs required.

The Guy Who Lives With His Mother
This one is easy to justify in your head -- "Well ... he needs to take care of his family," or "It's super temporary and it's only because he's trying to save money." No. The second he says you can't chill at his place because it's his mom's night to watch Desperate Housewives, it's time to move on. There's nothing like always having the guy in your apartment, or having to endure the walk of shame past his parents in their bathrobes. It also implies a few insecurities about growing up and being self-sufficient, something that is imperative to a relationship.

The Guy Who Wears a Bluetooth. .. All The Time
Urbandictionary.com would refer to this guy as a "bluetool" and they're spot on. There's no reason he can't talk on the phone like normal people. Besides, the constant distraction of being plugged-in is also broadcasting that what he's doing, where he is and who he's with aren't as important as the next possible phone call.

The Guy Who Knows His Marc Jacobs Better Than You
Women appreciate a little "metro" of the well-dressed-man but if he's commenting on how fabulous your shoes are he's likely either too high maintenance for you, or too into ... other men.

The Club Promoter
It might be fun to zip to the head of the line and waltz in to the hottest spots, but skip this guy. It's great to be friends with him, but these dudes are notoriously slutty and often more trouble than their worth.

5 COMPLIMENTS GUYS CRAVE

Complimenting a woman is easy -- tell her she looks beautiful, her dress is gorgeous, her hair is perfect, etc. But when it comes to stroking a guy's ego, what does he really want to hear? From DivineCaroline.com, here are the top 5 things men love to be complimented on:

1. His smile/laugh. By far, the number-one answer. Guys need to know they make you happy and the best way to tell them is saying how funny they are or how much you love their smile.

2. His skills. Focus on a guy's favorite hobby and compliment a specific skill. Not just, "You're so good at bowling," but "Wow, you put such an awesome spin on the ball!"

3. His doubts. Men try to hide their inner fears, but they have as many insecurities as women do. So be a self-esteem coach and compliment him where he needs it most.

4. His dog, car, etc. Men aren't used to compliments, so ease into it -- use an indirect object of flattery. Tell him his dog is cute and he'll take it as a compliment for himself.

5. His sexy body. Let's face it, complimenting a guy on his manly goods is always going to score you a home run.



BFFs

Every girl needs friends, right? Here are some to keep ... and a few to let go of ...
Friends You Need:

1. The Cheerleader: She's the first to give you a thumbs up on your Facebook statuses. She's the one you're calling as soon as your horrible Match.com date is over. Why we love her: unconditional support.

2. The Brutally Honest One: If you're deciding whether you really need your eyebrows waxed, or whether to call that guy who just isn't that into you but might be someday if you can only change his mind, she's the one to take you by the shoulders and tell you how she really feels. Why we love her: She's willing to risk hurting your feelings for a good cause -- never letting you make a fool of yourself.

3. The Wise One: She's ridden the roller coaster of life, and now she's there to hand-hold you through your ups and downs. Why we love her: She gives the best advice, because she's been there and done that. Nothing shocks her. Nothing. Try her. We dare you.

4. The Old Pal: She remembers when you wore fuzzy pajamas with feet and played "light as a feather" at sleepovers. Why we love her: You don't have to explain yourself, she already knows you. And most importantly, she gets you.

5. The Guy Pal: He doesn't analyze your outfit, take it personally if you're cranky, or need to hear every last detail about what's-going-on-with-your-life in the past two weeks. He just wants to hang out.

Three Types You Can Do Without:

With "friends" like these, who needs enemies?

1. The Underminer: This type is sneaky. It's not exactly what she's saying, but how she's saying it. After you've hung out with her, you may notice a feeling of, Hey, did she just diss me, or is it just me? It's not just you. It's her. Drop-kick her (she won't even notice).

2. The Topper: Just got a job promotion? She'll mention her five promotions in the past five years. Ran your first 10K race? Expect a rundown of her last marathon. No matter what your story is, she has something up her sleeve to one-up you. Drop-kick her (she'll just recall the time she was the star kicker on her soccer team).

3. The Judge: Remember when you had that meltdown? And she was all cool and collected and comforting at the time? Well, she was actually tallying your drama on a handy mental checklist. Drop-kick her (she'll judge you for being passive-aggressive, but it's worth it).

THE 6 WORST THINGS YOU CAN SAY TO YOUR GUY

OK, insulting his mom or screaming the name of your ex in bed will definitely get you into hot water -- but what about the stuff you say day-in day-out? What if you're dropping loaded phrases and harming your relationship, and you don't even realize it?
Cosmo reveals the six worst things you can say to your guy ...

1. "You're so much better than all the other jerks I've dated." Two strikes in one sentence: One, it makes you sound like you've had terrible luck with men, and the common thread is ... you. Two, if every guy ended up being a jerk ... he'll think he's going to get called one too, so why try to bond? If you value this one, don't mention exes, focus on the man in front of you ...

2. "Can you really afford that?" Many guys tie their self worth to their monetary worth, so skip criticizing him ... unless, say, he's buying you a second Ferrari (that's a little overboard, don' t you think?) Even worse, you sound like his mom. Ugh, unsexy to the max.

3. "So we're running a little late. Relax." He hates to be late, so why are you putting down his pet-peeve? Don't tell him how to feel, or accidentally pick a fight; instead, try to acknowledge his feelings. Try, "I'm sorry. I know this is important. I'll try to keep better track of time." See? Argument diffused, and a reminder that his feelings are important to you.

4. "He's a great guy -- you should be friends with him." Playing friend-match-maker may seem nice, but basically you'll just create reasons to be suspicious of your motives. If you want him to hit it off with someone, introduce them at a group thing, then back off.

5. "She made me promise not to tell, but ..." You think you're building intimacy... but you're just being a gossip. You're essentially calling attention to why you can't be trusted (with his secrets)! If you feel the need to divulge or talk something out, try starting off with, "I'm only telling you this because I trust you to keep a secret."

6. "Don't be silly -- I haven't done that in ages." Just because coupledom has tamed your wild ways doesn't mean you shouldn't be willing to let loose on occasion. It's like saying "I used to be fun ... but get used to dullsville, pal." Don't forget to have "old" fun now and then!

THE WORST PROFESSIONS TO DATE

According to Asylum, here are some of the worst professions to date.

• Singer/Entertainer -- The odds of your singing/acting girlfriend hitting the big time are almost zero. This means you'll be spending a lot of time encouraging her and making her feel secure about herself. It's exhausting.

• Strippers -- Despite some of the characters portrayed in movies, this is an emotionally messed up and financially desperate bunch. Just steer clear.

• Models -- On paper, dating a model seems like a great idea. At the bottom of it all is a high-maintenance woman making money off her looks. How can you possibly relate to this?

12 Types Of Women Guys Want To Date (Posted 3:00 AM, 10/14/2009)

According to AskMen.com, these are the 12 types of women guys should be looking for ... 1. Miss Sweet -- She's positive, genuine, content with her life, always upbeat and fun to be around. There's not a mean bone in her body. She's always happy to see you and you find yourself looking forward to spending time with her. 2. Miss Equality -- This woman is no man hater and no hypocrite. She doesn't say, "I demand equal rights and equal salary, but a man still has to pay for me." She truly likes men, believes a relationship should be 50/50, and is happy to pay for half the date! 3. Miss Sexual -- She loves sex and makes no bones about it. She doesn't use it to manipulate men -- she's just into it. Men love her 'cause she's a free spirit who's open about her sex drive. 4. Miss Best Friend -- She's someone you're totally in sync with -- you like the same things, enjoy going to the same places. She's just great to hang with. But you have to make your sexual interest known from day one, 'cause if she thinks you're gonna be "just friends," it's tough to change her mind. 5. Miss Straightforward -- She's the type who knows how to communicate. There are no mind games. She will do what she says she will do -- not say one thing and do another. She may be blunt, but at least you'll know where you stand and won't have to decode her behavior. 6. Miss Independent -- She has a life of her own and is happily going her own direction. She wants a man in her life, but doesn't need a man in her life. And she's not looking for men to solve her problems. 7. Miss Loyal -- She won't cheat on you or constantly be on the lookout for a "better deal." When you go out, she won't be scanning the room for other guys, but will keep her attention focused on you. She's also more likely to stick around if times get tough. 8. Miss No-Pressure -- While most women are dying to get married, she has no agenda. She may want to get married someday, but she's in no rush -- she's just happy to be with you. 9. Miss Secure -- She accepts herself as she is and is comfortable with her good points and her bad. She doesn't need constant attention and has tons of self-esteem. 10. Miss Personality -- She might not win a beauty contest, but her intelligence, wit, and sparkling presence light up the room and she draws people like a magnet. She's so completely charming that it's easy to overlook the fact that she's not gorgeous. 11. Miss Low-Maintenance -- She really doesn't care about how much money you have -- she likes you for you and not what she can get from you. She will gladly pay her share of the dating expenses. 12. Miss Right for You -- A lot of guys choose hot women who are just arm candy to show off in front of other men (or to offset their own insecurities). But if you find a woman who makes you happy, regardless of looks or what other guys think, you've definitely won at the dating game!

WAYS WOMEN HAVE REPLACED MEN WITH TECHNOLOGY

Developments in science and technology are rapidly advancing -- and this is allowing women to slowly, but surely, replace the men in their lives.

Here are some ways in which men are becoming obsolete to the needs of women:

1. Artificial Insemination -- Who needs a man when you have a turkey baster?

2. HGTV and Power Tools -- Since the first tools were crafted from stone and metal, fix-it projects have been the domain of men. Not anymore. The HGTV cable network along with do-it-yourself stores like Home Depot and Lowes have given women the access to tools and the know-how to use them.

3. Bug Spray -- Men used to be handy because they were in charge of spider-squashing. These days, women no longer need men to step on the bugs. They just need to reach for the Raid.

4. Pepper Spray and Tasers -- Once upon a time, women were afraid to be out alone at night without a male bodyguard. The invention of pepper spray and tasers meant a new degree of freedom for women.

5. Sex Toys -- The no-brainer.

THINGS WOMEN THINK ARE CUTE -- BUT AREN'T

According to Ultimate Hate List, here are some things women think are cute, but just aren't:

• Short Hair
• The 1980s
• Big Sunglasses
• Dancing on the Bar
• Reading Harry Potter Books
• Apple Martinis
• Pouting
• Uggs
• Some honorable mentions include Mini Coopers, ice coffee and throw pillows.

8 Habits That Can Wreck Your Relationship (Posted 3:00 AM, 10/12/2009)

Here are eight pesky behaviors that can kill a relationship ... 1. Having an affair with his "potential" Sure, you want him to be the best he can be, but acting like he'll be great following an "extreme makeover" will only leave you both feeling blah. You're failing to appreciate the mate you HAVE, and he's going to feel like you don't value him at all. Try the 80/20 rule: 80 percent of the time, praise them for all their greatness ... and in the tiny little 20, you can suggest room for improvements. It's also best to consider that the same goes for you. 2. Major Mood Swings It's easy to take stress out on one another, but that doesn't mean it's OK or good for your relationship. The occasional mood swing is acceptable -- it happens to the best of us -- but when moody is the norm it might mean your partner is going to want out. Wouldn't you? Try to take a breather when you realize you're being difficult. Take a walk, take a break, but don't take it out on your partner. 3. Complaining To Your Friends We all like to blow off steam, but if you're picking up the phone every time he upsets you -- you're going to have more of a relationship with your friends and less with your guy. Try talking to him when something upsets you. If you have to seek advice on how to approach it or write it out first that's OK, but build a partnership with your partner. 4. Melodrama If dating you means he has to get you flowers every time he leaves the toilet seat up ... he's likely to find a lower maintenance gal. Can you imagine having to make it up to him every time you had a mood swing or were late to dinner? Save the show-stoppers for something worthy ... Did he cheat on you? Have at him! 5. Mothering Him Taking care of each other comes with the territory, but if you're the one cutting his nights short because he's got a "big day tomorrow" or yelling for the Guitar Hero to be turned off, you're rapidly turning into mother not a lover. Avoid demanding, nagging or scolding; instead, ask for your needs in a clear respectful manner -- the way you would like to be addressed. 6. Too Much Together Time There's bonding and then there's bondage. Avoid being glued to your mate 24/7. Men like secure, independent women and enjoy their space. Remember who you were before you met him? That's the girl he fell for, and who you really are. Indulge in your favorite pastimes and do things without him now and again. You'll give him a chance to miss you and create interesting things to talk about when you get back. 7. Jealousy So, you found a guy who actually tells you he loves you, but you're still checking his phone, hacking his email and suspicious of his every moment away from you? STOP IT! Would you settle for a man who did this to you? A bit of jealousy is normal, but acting on it and letting it run your life is unattractive and unproductive. 8. Getting too comfortable Eventually the sweats come out and the routine kicks in, but that doesn't mean it's time to abandon all effort! Be sure to keep romance alive and grooming a priority (at least most of the time!). Take the time, on occasion, to look your best, create a romantic evening and show you're not taking him for granted. A special night "just because" usually gets reciprocated, and that's extra reason to make the effort!

TGIF !!!!!!! 10/9

Todays Brain Drain:

IN THE US THIS TAKES PLACE WELL OVER 2 MILION TIMES EACH YEAR

-WEDDINGS (WINNER)





WHAT YOUR UNDERWEAR SAYS ABOUT YOU ...

Does your choice of underwear reveal what type of girl you are? According to blog, Holy Taco, each style of underwear gives away clues. See what you think ...
Girls who wear boy short underwear are usually sporty tomboy types who are cute and playful and like to drink beer.
Girls who wear thongs want guys to look at their butts.
Girls who wear "granny panties" are completely relaxed and comfortable with their bodies. They're also probably in a committed relationship.
If you go for G-strings, you're eager for men to see them.
And the woman who goes commando is either slutty ... or lazy.



EAT FRESH!

To keep your relationship fresh, try adding food into the romantic mix. Here are some suggestions ...
Make a special treat. Even if you're on a diet, there's always room for a little dessert once a week. A little treat that you've either made or just remembered to pick up will show you're thinking about the two of you.
Cook a meal together. Divide up the tasks so you can both be in the kitchen working at the same time.
Make breakfast for them. It's more unexpected than lunch or dinner.
Pack them a lunch to take to work. Bonus: Include a note. Double bonus: Include a small piece of their favorite chocolate.
Think of food they like, but is difficult to find, and order it online.


DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN

There might be a billion differences between men and women. Here are some of the most important...
1. Hygiene Rituals -- A man's bathroom sink might have a maximum of five items, including soap and a razor. Women, on the other hand, seem to need so many beauty products that entire cabinets are added to the bathroom to hold the expanding collection.
2. Food -- When men go grocery shopping, they basically stock up on meat, and things that enhance meat, like bread. Women complicate this simple matter. They would rather eat something that looks pretty than tastes like food, turning eating into a giant hassle.
3. Children and Animals -- Women love children and animals. Men only pretend to love these creatures.
4. Driving -- Men drive capably and spend much time on the road trying not to get hit by women, who drive incapably.




America's Smartest Cities


Forget about which city has the best teams or the best weather or even the best sandwich. The list that will give one city ultimate bragging rights is finally out. The Daily Beast took a good, hard look at each of the 55 largest cities in America and ranked them in order of intelligence.

If you live in Raleigh, North Carolina -- congratulations, Einstein. The "City of Oaks" tops the list. Of course, it helps to have some of the country's best universities.

Rankings were determined by a number of factors including the number of college degrees per capita, number of institutions of higher learning, and nonfiction book sales.

The Top 10 Smartest Cities:
Raleigh-Durham, N.C.
The San Francisco Bay Area
Boston
Minneapolis-St. Paul
Denver
Hartford-New Haven, Conn.
