Why are Men's Rooms Always Dirty?
2007-12-27 17:02:00
A game theoretic approach to the problem of why men's bathrooms are always dirty Please leave the toilet as you would like to find it.(a groundkeeper's sign on a campground) Stand close, the man behind you may be barefoot.(graffiti on a men's room) Why are men's rooms always dirty? Could not we all simply stand closer in order to avoid the problem? Everybody would be better of this way. Correct - but...What is a single man's benefit of standing closer to the urinal? In the best case, his benefit is that the man behind him does not get wet feet (if only it was 'wet'). In the worst case, his 'benefit' is that he himself is standing in his forerunner's urin which he will not discover without close examination. This is especially upsetting if you have to stand in front of the urinal barefoot (as, for instance, in a swimming pool's restrooms).Regardless of whether the forerunner was standing too far from the urinal: You are always better off not standing close (a close examina...

When I went for my morning swimming today, I met my bosom buddy, Ben?s, mother. She was nice and charming, as always.Somehow I believe his mother has different values than he has. For instance, he keeps criticizing me for having a special blanket on my bed which keeps away bed bugs.In my view, these little animals are nasty, and therefore I love to rid myself of a bedbug infestation.supported and enhanced by linQueue.com Link Exchange Tools nonpaid.

Why do We Wear Suit and Tie?
2007-12-27 12:10:00
In the pool with a flannel suitDo you like to wear three piece, grey flannel suits and a tie? I do not. I even do not know anybody who claims to love to wear them. But I know many who wear them, and many who want others to wear them. But, why is this?Imagine the situation of a middle manager who is about to hire a new employee: He wants somebody who takes a lot of work from him and who does not cause a any trouble.A creative worker thinks for himself, critizies, has new ideas, tries many things and is inattentive to details because he needs his time for important issues, not the the red tape. He is every supervisor's of the middle management nightmare when he offends people, bothers them with new ideas, and loses one or the other form. This is why this kind of people hardly have a chance to be hired. A supervisor certainly prefers a harmless, uncreative worker.A harmless, uncreative worker is gray. You will recognize him by his gray suit, a gray shirt, and a time. Fortunately, thes...

Actor Bea Arthur, best known for playing Dorothy on The Golden Girls, narrated PETA?s ?Kentucky Fried Cruelty? video, which illustrates the worst abuses suffered by chickens at the hands of KFC?s factory-farm and slaughterhouse suppliers. Bea also lent her talents to 30- and 60-second radio and TV public service announcements calling on consumers to boycott KFC until it agrees to make changes in the treatment of the animals raised for its restaurants.TranscriptHello, I?m Bea Arthur, with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

They get their window coverings from selectblinds.com.I have been wondering where they get their products from any am now more than happy to have found out. Once I visited the SelectBlinds.com web site, I realized the company offers mini blinds at very reasonable prices.How is it possible they can supply a nationwide success show and still offer affordable products?

During the past holidays I've had a lot of time to think about the new year that is around the corner.I wonder what 2008 holds for me. Certainly, a major shift - at least geographically - will take place by the end of February. Up to now I have shared an apartment with 2 fellow students. As two of us will graduate in early 2008 we are going to part companionship.One of the guys, let us call him Ben, has been a dear friend of mine for over three years. We have had good times as well as bad times.Like I said, I consider him to be a very dear friend of mine. And as it goes with bosom buddies, my relationship to him has been affected by pride, prejudices, distrust, envy, and yealousy.A theme song from the movie Mames precisely describes such a relationship in a quaint manner.Bosom Buddiesby Bea Arthur and Angela LansburyVera and Mame:[singing]We'll always be bosom buddies,Friends, sisters and pals;We'll always be bosom buddies,If life should reject you,There's me to protect you.Vera...

Cher was on David Letterman last week and looked just great. Obviously she?d had another face lift that makes her appear more beautiful and fresh than ever.When discussing cosmetic surgery with my friends I always try to convince them that this will gain in importance in future years. Most probably, having cosmetic surgery will never be as usual and accepted as going to the hairdresser?s, but it will become more affordable.The latest trend in rejuvenating yourself is enhancing your genitals. Needless to say, a man?s dreams of enlarging his penis are not new.Women, on the other hand, become increasingly interested in labia reduction surgery and laser vaginal rejuvenation. Two internationally renowned surgeons who have performed these surgeries, are Dr Miklos and Dr Moore.

Now that I have just posted about living in New York, an important criterion for whether to move somewhere is certainly the level and range of local schools.With regards to moving to New York, the Academy at Ivy Ridge is highly recommendable. This is a boarding school for the future, as their motto goes.The Ivy Ridge Academy is an effective specialty school for adolescents ages 12 through 18. These adolescents have excellent potential but are headed for some serious problems as they are typically determined to do their "own thing."The school is located in upstate New York and therefore helps minimize inappropriate distractions.supported and enhanced by linQueue.com Link Exchange Tools nonpaid.

Health insurance for Christmas?

In previous posts, I outlined the differences between health insurance system in the United States and in Europe.I need to add that self-employed individuals, part-time employees, students, singles, and families all have different needs. Their life style creates different requirements for a health insurance plan.CVTY-Heal th Insurance .com®, for instance, gives access to the best rates from Coventry Health Care, making getting health insurance simple and affordable. They are an authorized independent agent of Coventry Health Care, Inc.

In previous posts, I outlined my desire to take up skateboarding as a fun sport.When writing the earlier post, I forgot about the fact that I used to do other fun sports quite a bit. One that I enjoyed very much was inline skating.I remember the fun I had when I went inline skating back in Berne where my family lives. There were days when I did trips of about 10 to 15 miles. In summer time, when temperatures were running high, it used to be rather strenuous to be on the road for such a long time.I consider myself not to be a speed skater. I simply like to inline skate for recreation.Needless to say, the best inline skates can be found on the Internet nowadays.

The other day, I stumbled upon a news article which described the story of a son who had hidden Christmas presents in his parents? car. He had bought a bottle of wine for his father, and a beautiful set of cups and saucers for his mother. I remember that the boy spent some 200$ on these presents.When he came home from his shopping trip, he did not know where to hide the presents so that the parents would not discover them before Christmas Eve.The parents? car was an old VW Passat which was only used on rare occasions. This was the reason why the boy put the goods in the trunk of the car.You may be wondering where this story is going. You may even be wondering what my point is. Well, a couple of contretemps occurred as the presents were stolen from the car the morning of Christmas Eve.After the boy had discovered that the card had been broken open and that the presents were not there anymore, he told his parents.His father was positive his car insurance would pay for the presents whe...

In his stead, the parliament elected Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf (also a SVP member), who accepted the mandate on 13 December 2007.[5] Blocher thus became the fourth federal councillor to be ousted from office in the history of the Swiss Federal State, following Ruth Metzler whom he had replaced the previous term, besides Ulrich Ochsenbein and Jean-Jacques Challet-Venel in the 19th century.If you understand Swiss German, have a look at his reaction in an interview conducted by Matthias Ackeret, PhD, on Decemeber 15, 2007.supported and enhanced by linQueue.com Link Exchange Tools nonpaid.
