A little light fare
http://www.buffalonews.com/opinion/columns/missmanners/story/179026.html

Dear Miss Manners: I have encountered this situation for years, but it seems that lately it has become even more frequent — this behavior that some women seem to have of looking you up and down, as though they were appraising you. I try to be considerate of others and mindful of my own behavior, and I am wondering if these women who do this are so in the behavior that they are not aware that they are doing this or that they are very much aware of what they are doing — basically, assessing others. It certainly doesn’t seem like welcoming behavior to me.

Gentle Reader: A nasty habit, Miss Manners agrees. From whom could they have learned such a thing?

1. HaHa!
Edited on Wed Oct-10-07 06:15 AM by lizerdbits
Reminds me of a Mindy McReady song "Guys do it all the time."

"Guys do it all the time and you expect us to understand
When the shoe's on the other foot you know that's when it hits the fan
Get over it honey life's a two way street or you won't be a man of mine
So I had some beers with the girls last night
Guys do it all the time."

(She stayed out late without calling, took $20 from his wallet before leaving, didn't cut the grass because she had to wash her truck is most of the song.)

I think I'll put that CD in my changer for work today. :)
