No offense taken, Keith, not lasting, anyway. I'm sensitive to it, because the bias towards things male is so interwoven in our society it's almost insidious. I could bore you for hours (I won't, don't worry) on this, and I only really became so aware as I started having girls and thinking about what their world is and will be like. And it is of course made so much more difficult by the undeniable fact that men particularly are affected by how a woman looks (women certainly do it as well, to a lesser extent). I mean, us guys ALL are; I am, I'd be a lying fool to deny it. So the issue then for me is to be aware of the propensity and work against it...just as I struggle every day against my propensity to be emotional about my stock picks! And to try to give my girls a world in which, as much as possible, they really will be judged by who they are and what they are capable of. </rant> Now back to our regularly schedule programming on JDX...

A word of wisdom on hiring - Hire ugly ones as the first time your wife lays eyes on a good looking co-worker or secretary. .... Its just not worth the hassle. Now if you do get silly and hire a looker - You may as well be a PIG cus your wife and everyone else will assume it is happening. Now did anyone see the 90s version of this on some TV show last night wher the Female Law Firm partner was dating the guy for his looks
