If a woodchuck chucks as much wood as it could (previous JustAGuy questions spur new ones...) How much of the wood does the beaver get to use in the new construction of his river dam?

Why would a woman look for someone who is intelligent, yet be unable to hold a conversation herself without a dictionary or some other sort of translation tool?

I happen to think communication is important...and if I'm constantly having to explain what words mean, no real communication is happening. So why would they seek it out if they themselves don't have it?


Here's a question.

Justaguy Are men intimidated by women who know how to fix things?Being a widow and a farm girl I know how to fix things, and have a toolbox. I don't expect a guy to look after me ,but would not object to an offer of a hand.

JustAGuy! Where ARE you?

I kicked my son off the PC JUST so I could have a few minutes before bedtime so that I could allow your wisdom to infuse my sleepy brain...

Guess I'll have to sleep stupid one more night until I get the answers I desire!

(Get busy, dude!)

There are, as you know, differing levels and types of intelligence. A person who is " book smart " can be pretty much clueless about life itself. A person who is " street smart " may know all about life, but may not have a clue if you used big words.

You are correct in thinking that communication is important, but there are forms of communication besides words that are necessary in a relationship.

That being said...you also seem to indicate that the women you date wind up not being very intelligent. If that's the case, why is your intelligence not allowing you to catch on to that fact in the first few emails, or even the first conversation?

Not to mention, intelligence is not always indicated by a person's vocabulary. My daughter's mom wasn't an exceptionally intelligent woman as far as words go, but if you put her in charge of an eatery or a kitchen of some sort ( she was the manager of the kitchen at a bowling alley for quite a while ) she could run the place, very efficiently, with seemingly very little effort. That would indicate that, even though she wasn't great with words, she had a lot of organizational skill, which requires a type of intelligence that even the largest vocabulary wouldn't necessarily impart.

Basically....it's all a matter of degrees of intelligence. If you want someone who has a large vocabulary so that she can understand what you are saying, then that's the kind of intelligence you can find either there or lacking in pretty short order.

It happens to the best of us..lol

How many M&Ms are in a bag?


Unless it's the humungo giant bag of them, not nearly enough. :-)

Why is it impossible to tear a page out of spiral binder without creating a mess both on the edge of the paper and inside the spiral wire?


You forgot that you always mess up the wire so that it's nearly impossible to turn the pages too...lol

They designed it that way just to irritate people.

Why are Christmas decorations up at the big box store before Thanksgiving?


Who ever heard of someone buying Thanksgiving presents???

If ya can't sell anything for that holiday...why bother even acknowledging it?

Does Santa put coal or switches in the stockings of bad children...is that a cultural or regional difference?


I'm sure it's cultural. Ya know...the culture that believes that " spare the rod, spoil the child ", thing would give the switch.

Is the light in my refrigerator on?


If the door is open, yes.

If the door is closed, the refrigerator gremlins only turn it on when they are looking for the butter.

Does the size of a man's shoe reflect anything besides the size of his foot?

Why does the eraser of a pencil get dried up and unusable before the pencil is gone?


That would indicate a lot more errors than the eraser was intended for...lol
