General here…
D’you ever get those joke emails about the differences between Men and Women?
Like, How To Shower Like A Man / How To Shower Like A Women, etc…
Well - I have my own personal take on this gender issue, so without further adieu - I give you…
How 4 Women Party on a Saturday Night.
(As my wife, the Lovely Anita, did with three friends a couple of weeks ago)
Invite friends over at 8pm.
Put out stone-ground, lightly salted, extra-thin tortilla crisps on fancy platter with Artichoke dip.
Put 3 types of crackers on second platter with a selection of cheeses, including the really stinky kind.
Cube Watermelon, Honeydew, Cantaloupe and Pineapple and place on another frickin’ platter with yogurt dip.
Open bottles of Chardonnay and Merlot.
Break out Z-stemmed martini glasses and rim with pink-coloured sugar stuff.
Pour in Apple Liqueur, Triple Sec and Vodka.
Consume until you decide which character from Sex And The City represents you best - although - even under the influence, no one fesses up to being most like that tramp, Samantha. Then, there’s talk about renting a limo, going out for dinner, and then to the Movie Premier at the end of May.
The evening ends at 2:30am when one person is still talking, but the other three have fallen asleep.
How 4 Men Party on a Saturday Night
(As Mike, Gord, Rob and I did this past weekend)
At 1pm - even though you are indoors and have access to a working fridge - fill a cooler with 24 beers and 2 bags of ice.
Put jug-like bottle of Crown Royal on counter beside the Coke and Ginger Ale.
Put several bags of chips and 4 dips on table.
6 Hours later…four drunken Leaf fans cheer on the Montreal Canadiens in their quest for The Cup - their paper plates overflowing with Steak & Shrimp, Potato, Corn on the Cob, and Caesar Salad.
After the game - and the series - is lost - do what Leaf fans do best…shtand in the rain with a shigar and a shot of cognac and shay g’bye to another hockey season.
10pm - Fall into bed fully clothed - arms and legs stretching out over three sides.
