While you're at it, add the three sports cars as well !!!

I had an interesting conversation about a couple of years ago, with an Avon saleswoman .

Here in North America, Avon is a well known home sales company of women's cosmetics, etc ...., don't know if they have any presence outside of here or not .

Advertising materials and catalogs were left on my front door for awhile, they stopped and I didn't think too much about .

While I was on vacation, I had all of the vehicles out of the garage  one morning and washing the garage floor .

The Avon sales woman  was walking by with catalogs and the such , I asked her why she didn't leave any on my door ?

Her comment was,' you've got three sports cars, five motorcycles, no woman has lived in this home, no woman currently lives in this home and no woman will ever live in this home, the single women in this neighborhood will not go anywhere near you, you are the most classic example of a confirmed bachelor that I have ever seen' .

There was a woman with a firm grasp of reality .

I think Avon are pretty much world wide
I too had an interesting encounter with an Avon Lady a few years back..
We had just moved house to a new neighborhood when i answered a knock on the door... Avon lady says welcome to the neighborhood .. is your wife in, my playful reply yes but she is deaf you will have to speak up and make sure she can see your lips move, i will go get her.
So i told SWMBO there was someone at the door for her and i then went into hiding as the innocent Avon lady did her best ( and loudest ever ) sales pitch, i swear you could her her a mile away my wife thought she was demented... needless to say i was in the dog house for a while until she saw the funny side.

That is HILARIOUS, LOU !!  I wish that I had thought of such a thing - would have been worth the week in the dog house, IMHO!

By the way, I think that this would be a good place to post that the Men's Guide to Understanding Women, Volume 1 is now available in paperback form (sorry for recycling this, I couldn't resist):

   Remember, when your wife (or girlfriend) asks you "Do I look FAT "   Don't answer.. "I've seen fatter".

I saw a hilarious wedding video not long back, my daughter was a guest at the reception and in his wisdom the Photographer left the video running on a stand near the entrance capturing the guests as they came in, all the guests got a copy which was not edited.
A "Lady" was stood next to it and all her comments were on tape ... she slagged off everyone who walked passed her as soon as they were out of earshot.
Needless to say she has not been seen since.
would not mind but she wasnt even blonde. [smiley=beehive.gif]
