Why Men Should Not Take Messages

I received an e-mail this morning from my daughter, Amanda, titled "Why men should not take messages." I would post the attachment, but I am computer illiterate and do not know how to do that kind of thing. But I did want to share it with you.

The note taken by the husband and stuck to the frig said -

SOMEONE FROM THE
GYNA COLLEGES
CALLED.
THEY SAID THE
PABST BEER IS
NORMAL.
I DIDN'T EVEN
KNOW YOU LIKED
BEER.
Now, do you females really think that we are that stupid? Oh! I hear all of those "you better believe it" echoing out there in blogland.
I must take a stand for "maledom" and challenge you on this point. We may not understand all of that "female terminology" but we as a group, for the most part, can hold our own in other ways. To wit -
Males know how to get lost and never ask for directions.
Males know how to take a grocery list and bring back only two correct items.
Males know how to take out the trash, get it to the street on time while forgetting those little trashbaskets in the bathrooms.
Males know how to get at least three week's use out of sheets while the wives change them every couple of days.
Males know how to wash whites and colors at the same time thus saving water and electricity.
Males know how to burn meat on a grill.
This list could certainly go on and on, and you will probably add to the list the attributes of your significant other, but you see that males are definitely not incompetent and stupid.
Oh, by the way -
THE GYNA COLLEGES
CALLED AGAIN
TO SAY
THEY WOULD CHECK
YOUR CAR MOANS.
DOES THAT COLLEGE
DO CAR REPAIR?
