Well, sir, let me tell you about being married. I am married to a nurse (I am a registered nurse myself). Now that is one woman who knows how to handle sharp instruments. When she is about to administer injections to her patients, the question they always ask is, "Does it hurt?"
Her reply was this- "For me, no..."
And in Singapore, we have a silly joke about men getting life partners.
Marry a female bus conductor- "Oi, get in to the back..."
Marry a nurse- "Now, that is not so bad, is it...?"
Marry a telephone operator- "Please hold on while I pass you to the next person"
The best... marry a teacher. Why? If you do something wrong, she will make you do it again and again till you get it done to her satisfaction.
Now, do you still wish to remain single...?
As for the ladies, we always say that they should marry someone from the military. A very sensible thing to do, you see.... these boys are good are keeping the place clean, they can cook something out of almost anything they can lay their hands on, and the best thing of all- They ARE good and carrying out instructions without much argument.
I've said this before somewhere in this forum- my relationship with my wife is very much like the Army- I am the General and she is the Major. I get to make General decisions, and she gets to make Major decisions...:salute2:
I hear you brother!
However, My other half is ex-military intelligence but now working as a paramedic.
She often tells me that she could make my death look like an accident! With her military and medical training (not to mention the drugs she had access to), I don't doubt her!!
I'm far from single as we've been together for nearly 20 years. I just haven't put a ring on her finger and I have no plans to change that!
