Too funny Rcajun... probably more truth than fiction in some cases...

I can remember an ex-boyfriend once giving me a pan of homemade hogs-head-cheese as a Christmas gift... I always appreciate homemade gifts, but in this particular case his gift spoke louder (and probably more truthfully) than his words... Is any wonder he's and EX?!... LOL... :0))))

NOpe but for me he would have scored I grew up with foods like that and cant find them any more

I have no idea what you people are talking about. Sometimes the humor at this Group confounds me.

I haven't been celibate for so long I have no idea what it feels like ... and I *do* like to give flowers. The connection between flowers and celibacy escapes me.

I know there is something very funny going on here but for the life of me I can't grasp it. For me, flowers mean romance -- i.e. the opposite of celibacy.

On the other hand, I have given flowers as a gift in business and these were celibate transactions. This is a joke about business? I'm quite confused. There is something here I'm missing. Is this one of those "men are from Venus but women are from Earth" kind of jokes?

>>Is this one of those "men are from Venus but women are from Earth" kind of jokes?<<

LOL... You're right, Skeeter, it is.... But I failed to appreciate how TRULY accurate it is until I read your post... :0)

You see, the men were asked to name and describe their wife's favorite FLOWER... Instead, he named her favorite FLOUR (self-rising)... as in BAKING flour.

To most woman, this is like giving appliances as an anniversary gift... It makes her feel unappreciated for the sensual creature she knows she is, yet is usually too busy to express... In short, she feels taken for granted.

ladystorm... I LOVE hogs-head-cheese. I grew up on it too, but I could have had it ANY old time. I expected something more thoughtful for Christmas... ESPECIALLY since I knew he had the money, AND I had put a LOT of thought and money into HIS gift.

I don't know where you live, but hogs-head-cheese is readily available here in any store. I actually make my OWN a lot of the time. If you would like to know how, just PM me... I'll write you up a receipe.

Oh. Flour is not what came to mind when you wrote "self-rising."

Off to bed. Workday tomorrow.

LOL... ANOTHER example of "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus"... LOL... ;0))))

On reading the joke, I finally came up with Skeet's interpretation. Glad I scrolled on down to read the word "flour." Behold, now I understand. Self-rising flour. It even makes sense. I get it.

Way the bye, for years now, I've been telling the world the way to avoid STD's is through the practice of celibacy within a monogamous relationship. Give it a try, you'll see it works.

It would seem to ME that celibacy would work even if one was permiscuous or polygamous... LOL... ;0))))

Ohhh - I didn't get the joke either of flour and flower.
