No no no OlRedEyes..... the world produces more than food during working hours. I know you know that!!!

Many females can testify to this. Honey, I'm working late tonight...

All these hours are not considered in your stats..

Men crave power and women crave the next best thing; an erect penis

Nancy Astor also accused Winston Churchill of being drunk to which he replied:-

"Yes, madam, and you're ugly. At least in the morning I'll be sober....."

Evidently, Mrs Astor and Mr Churchill didn't get on because on another occasion she said, " Mr Churchill, if I were your wife I'd put poison in your coffee." He replied, "If I were your husband, I'd drink it."

Scouse.
