In what way do you wish men would "grow up"?

New research has discovered that the personality men have in the first grade is the personality they have for life!  Researchers compared teacher personality ratings of 144 elementary students in the 60's to interviews those same students completed 40 years later.  It turns out those behaviors observed by the teachers were almost always predictive of their personality in middle age.  

**No wonder I still love eating glue!

The author of the study concluded:  "We remain recognizably the same person."  story

JOKE OF THE DAY

A woman was having a passionate affair with an inspector from a pest-control company. One afternoon they were carrying on in the bedroom together when her husband arrived home unexpectedly.

“Quick,” said the woman to the lover: “into the closet!” and she pushed him in the closet, stark naked.

The husband, however, became suspicious and after a search of the bedroom discovered the man in the closet.

“Who are you?” he demanded.

“I'm an inspector from Bugs-B-Gone,” said the exterminator.

“What are you doing in there?” the husband asked.

“I'm investigating a complaint about an infestation of moths,” the man replied.

“And where are your clothes?” asked the husband.

The man looked down at himself and said: “Well, this proves you obviously have a problem!"
