in case you didn't notice...

Bert is right: Any fiscal problem will be revealed and exacerbated by the following behaviors:
Buying a big boat
Getting a new wife or mistress
Putting your affection into writing. Writing on paper may be quite safe but avoid e mail and texting.
I'd add that one should be a tad concerned when one's biographer has a ghost writer.
Generals should take note.
I taught in the ROTC building in a university. The kibblets, baby generals all,  were very clear about the UCMJ. (It's military law and it really frowns on adultery.) Surely they mentioned this at West Point.

Daddy said that the Irish problems were caused by their intake of booze. "Get drunk and shoot people" was his description. (The old man was Irish)
********************************************************************************
I can't figure what causes the problems in Israel. The Palestinians bomb Israel ceaselessly, admit it and then announce that the Israelis caused the current ruckus.Both sides make shameless use of the death of the children they've killed.

 Hamas just topped the Israelis. A member of Hamas and the Egyptian gov't. dipped their hands in a dead child's blood and came out of the hospital for a photo op., or maybe they held the press event in hospital... It wasn't clear. (Tell me, has Egypt let any number of Palestinians into their country of late?
Did I miss something? Having started the war against the interlopers in 1948 have the Egyptians finally welcomed their brothers in arms into their land? Or are they still operating the lucrative contracts-complete with kickbacks to the Israelis- on tunnels under the "check points?")

I blame God. More specifically I blame Abraham for being too literal about God's promise" children as numerous as the stars"oh yeah. If he'd kept himself to himself there'd have only been Israel maybe.....but NOOOOOOOOO, he was male so he sent poor Hagar off into the desert to make a life for herself and her son who was his eldest son too. Idiot. Israel and Palestine might have staggered on in some peace if they weren't brothers. Unfortunately the worst fights are between brothers...and the Arab Muslims and the Jews both resemble great grandpa all too much.

What kind of person sends a woman and child off into a desert?  I'll answer. A man with a jealous wife and a very cross mistress or second wife, that kind of person. He ensures that his children will inherit his wife's jealousy, his mistress's anger and his own idiocy.

It occurs to me that MALE MENOPAUSE is a much bigger problem than society has chosen to notice.
Perhaps doctors could specialize. Maybe men could write books. Seminars, speaking engagements, MM groups, MM clinics.... The financial possibilities are endless.
