I read that WSJ article yesterday. Interesting how the two sexes can say the exactly same thing but interpret it differently when they are on the receiving end. I also like Dan's "hamburger" and "summer squash" analogy, but don't look now--with all the vegan rage nowadays, one just may find a hamburger patty made with summer squash.... :)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08289347868497438542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9313009.post-4860400497830523782010-10-20T23:07:25.472-05:002010-10-20T23:07:25.472-05:00You know I am a fan.

You have a serious gift for succinctly and clearly expressing your thoughts. When I've read one of your posts, I know exactly what you meant to say in one reading. Why? Becuase you said it and you said it clearly. What all this really means, is that you truly understand what you're saying. Keep up the great work. Your work has blessed me and clearly many others. <br /><br />Tim<br /><br />P.S.
