PMS gift

Hey, the heck with the man in my life, I think I might like one of these for myself. At this point in time I have no idea when PMS will hit, although I know it will, so if a gadget can pinpoint that date, it would be helpful. I'd then plan my social calendar accordingly.

Male Cycle much shorter so detector wouldn't work

I remember so study years ago that placed the male testosterone cycle at about every 20min....so ladies if you man is an "asshole" just wait 20min and try again. If he still is....well then the problem isn't cyclical, it could be permanent.

PMS joke

Heard this one?

A. You know how you feel when you have PMS?

B. Yes.

A. That's the way men feel ALL the time.

Can't you get a calendar for free at a bank?

insane??

while i would never attempt to "further encourage notions that menstruation renders [women] insane" i think to deny that many ladies act differently while they are having PMS is just as silly.

in fact, one of salon's own writers extolled the virtues of just such a scheduling method using windows/outlook calendar functions.. here's the link... it's hardly a fox-news rightwing womens-place-in-the-home propaganda piece... http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2005/02/07/pms/index1.html?x

maybe ms. traister is just uppity about this because it's her special time this month?!? i kid..i kid..

cheers
