<< Smart guys are no where, they make demands >> Fortunately, the world is made up of people with different tastes and divergent points of view. My eldest daughter (an educator, and mother of my two grandchildren) just sent me an e-mail with the subject header "Smart Women". I thought I would share these quotes attributed to recognizable and successful women with this thread. I am hopeful there is nothing that will be construed as in bad taste: SMART WOMEN 1. I'm not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes, because I know I'm not dumb ... and I also know that I'm not blonde. -Dolly Parton- 2. You see a lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with a dumb guy. -Erica Jong- 3. I want to have children, but my friends scare me. One of my friends told me she was in labor for 36 hours. I don't even want to do anything that feels good for 36 hours. -Rita Rudner- 4. I've been on so many blind dates, I should get a free dog. -Wendy Liebman- 5. Never lend your car to anyone to whom you have given birth. -Erma Bombeck- 6. If high heels were so wonderful, men would still be wearing them. -Sue Grafton- 7. I'm not going to vacuum until Sears makes one you can ride on. -Roseanne Barr- 8. I think -- therefore I'm single. -Lizz Winstead- 9. When women are depressed they either eat or go shopping. Men invade another country. -Elayne Boosler- 10. Behind every successful man is a surprised woman. -Maryon Pearson- 11. I base most of my fashion taste on what doesn't itch. -Gilda Radner- 12. In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man; if you want anything done, ask a woman. -Margaret Thatcher- 13. I have yet to hear a man ask for advice on how to combine marriage and a career. -Gloria Steinhem- 14. I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog which growls every morning, a parrot which swears all afternoon and a cat that comes home late at night. -Marie Corelli- 15. Nagging is the repetition of unpalatable truths. -Baroness Edith Summerskill 16. If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a little noose around your neck? -Linda Ellerbee 17. I am a marvelous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man, I keep his house. -Zsa Zsa Gabor- - ce -
