U.S. Women Like Brit Men Better
by GinnyTosken inthis just in from the globe weekly tabloid of july 29, 2003:.
it's not just stars like gwyneth paltrow, madonna, gillian anderson, liv tyler, and gwen stefani--british guys are many american gals' cup of tea.. "british men are more articulate, mature, and sophisticated," says cary cooper, a university of manchester (england) psychologist, who isn't entirely biased since he was born in hollywood and has citizenship of both the u.s. and the u.k. he adds that british men are better listeners and pay more attention to their women, while u.s. men are too juvenile.. "british men also invest more in a relationship and are more emotional," cooper says.. "american men are good at talking about emotion, but really that's all it is, talk.".
speaking of talk, might those sexy accents have something to do with it?.

It's nice that American women like British men, because British women don't, they're too busy chasing after Italians and Greeks!

Are the British Smelly?
by refiners fire innow of course, i, being british myself by birth do not believe the british are smelly or dirty, however, i must tell our british brothers that there is a recurring stereotype about the englishman that is held by australians.
they pull it out of the hat like a white rabbit, constantly.
"poms only have a bath once a week.

I always thought that the "smelly poms" thing came from the days of the £10 emigration to Australia - British people were placed in camps before they were housed properly, probably similar to those for asylum seekers now - these camps had limited washing facilities meaning that quite a few of the British immigrants were indeed quite smelly. Despite statistics to prove that the British are no dirtier than any other nation, the phrase has stuck.
As far as the teeth thing is concerned, yes, on average the British probably do have poorer teeth than Americans, you don't meet many people over here with as sparking teeth as Donny Osmond or even Email!

Question for those who still occasionally attend meetings
by unique1 indo you do things just to piss the brothers off when you go to a meeting?
like just to be rebellious i always wear a skirt above the knee and cross my legs to make it even shorter, because i enjoy the disapproving looks.
i even wore pants to the meeting when i was feeling extra sassy.
-
Matty
I will be quitting the meetings very soon and so I don't want to draw too much attention to myself, being that I'd like to go quietly! I must admit that my recent talks have all had subtle references in them about studying the Bible in context, testing that you are in the faith, emphasis on the simplicity of Jesus' message etc… I hope some of it sunk in.

Norwegians Are Dirtiest!
by ISP innorwegians 'are the dirty men and women of europe'
norway is home to some of europe's dirtiest people, according to a survey.. the study found seven per cent of people in norway changed their underwear only once a week.. the survey, conducted by ac nielsen for norwegian underwear maker dovre, asked 1,000 norwegians between the ages of 20 and 60 how often their changed their underwear.. some people admitted to changing them even less often than once a week.
more than a third said they wore the same underwear for two days or more, aftenposten reported.. people between 41 and 50 were the least likely to change their underwear regularly, while people with partners were found to change their underwear less often than single people.. the survey showed 11% of norwegians change their underwear two to three times a week, 18% change four to six times a week and 58% change daily
