I shop military style. I know what I want. My research is done. I buy and I'm out. Next destination.
With a women it's one damn long enduring trek, "oh we'll come back to that shop later, first lets go there, ooh no this one too, ok after that we'll go there, and remind me to go back there ok?"
She was on speed!Comment

Excellent - think I've found a few places online to watch the Liverpool vs. West Brom match. Not that it will be much of a match - I think FT will be rubbing his hands at the prospect of the Reds maintaing their 100% record against us (whilst maintaining their three goal a game average against us, without a single goal in reply).Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?Comment

What I find really bizarre about women is that they'll go around shops when they don't need anything. They appear to derive pleasure from the mere fact of being in a retail outlet - or, preferably, in the vicinity of dozens of them.
Give a man a large expanse of land near a motorway junction and unlimited funds, and he'll want to build a theme park with huge rollercoasters, and monster trucks, and paintball, and stuff like that. A women would want to build a shopping centre, just so they could wander around it looking at stuff they don't want.
I remember the old story of the cowboy who'd lived all his life out on the prairie, herding cattle. Then one day he was taken to the big city - Dallas, or somewhere. His hosts took him into the biggest department store in the city, and took him all around its departments, showing him the marvels available to buy.
Leaving the store, they asked him what he thought. He reflected for a moment, and said:
"I never knew there were so many things a man didn't need."Comment
