PS. just for fun, here is a joke...

Three guys and a lady were sitting at the bar talking about their
professions.

The first guy says "I'm a Y.U.P.P.I.E, you now....Young, Urban,
Professional, Peaceful, Intelligent, Ecologist"

The second guy says "I'm a D.I.N.K, you know....Double Income, No Kids."

The third guy says, "I'm a R.U.B., you know...Rich, Urban, Biker."

They turn to the woman and ask her, "What are you?"

She replies: "I'm a WIFE, you now.... Wash, Iron, Fuck, Etc."
 
 

... and another joke

Two engineering students were walking across campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?"
The second engineer replied,  "Well, I was walking along yesterday mindingmy own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike.
She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want."
The second engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fitted."
