"My life really began when I married my husband." - First line in Nancy Reagan's autobiography
"Man...Men...Man...Man...Men" - Ayn Rand (Not necessarily in that order) I just bought a (used!) paperback copy of Ayn Rand's "We the living" - the cover has a typical painting of a woman on her knees in front of a man who looks away. Apparently the plot is about a communist and the hero fighting over a woman. Remember, property is the basis of all human rights - so one's female property is worth fighting for! See my Ayn Rand page

Don't laugh, I have a Spice Girls page.
"Of course it's fair" says the white male who's inherited all the money "it's the marketplace!"
