I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer.
The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.
My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing, and I said 'nothing'.
The reason I said 'nothing' instead of saying 'just thinking' is because she then would have asked 'about what ?'
At that point I would have had to explain that men are deep thinkers
about various topics, which would lead to other questions.
Finally, I pondered an age old question:
Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?
Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than
a guy getting kicked in the nuts, but how could they "know"?
Well, after another beer, and some more heavy deductive thinking,
I have come up with an answer to that question:
Getting kicked in the groin is more painful than having a baby, and even though
I obviously couldn't really "know"...here is the reason for my conclusion:
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say,
"It might be nice to have another child."
On the other hand, you never hear a guy say:
"You know, I think I would like another kick in the groin."
I rest my case.
Time for another beer, and then maybe a nap in that hammock.
