Re: Male reasoning (sorry Ed, Neal)

My DH NEVER, NEVER cleans up cat puke. If I'm not here I am advised where
the present is when I get home. The reason? There will be a larger pile
from him to clean up. He has the shortest puke cord known to man. If he
hears it he runs and starts gagging. He's what's commonly called a courtesy
puker. You puke and he will too!

I do have to tell a funny story. I cleaned some up at the bottom of the
stairs one day and of course it was still a tad damp. He was rough housing
with the cousins that were over and yes they get rough when footballs are
involved and he went down the stairs on his back and the side of his face
went by the damp spot and he almost lost it. Knowing full well it was clean
but just knowing what was there before dang near gagged him. Like I said
very short puke cord!!

Me nothing gets to me but grown up feet. Love baby feet, and little kid's
feet. Can't stand grown up feet. Yuk!
