men get fatter :
how come men get fatter after their marriage ? a bachelor comes home at night, goes to his fridge, finds nothing special there and goes to bed. the married man comes home at night, goes to his bed, finds nothing special there and goes to the fridge... los hombres se engordan... ¿ porqué los hombres se engordan después del matrimonio ? el soltero llega a casa, se dirige a su frigorífico, no encuentra nada de especial, y se va a la cama. el hombre casado llega a casa, se dirige a su cama, no encuentra nada de especial, y va a su frigorífico... |

This is not fair, I am up against too many women !
(A good thing that there's a big ocean between us...) Maybe a bad joke ? Fact remains : I got a whole lot bigger !

Frank,
One of the first rules of public speaking is: If you can't carefully choose your audience, you have to carefully choose your material. But I thought the joke was funny so don't listen to me. Joel |

As a man, I must say that Veronica's interpretation struck me as funnier and more true. Sorry that I can't contribute to the solidarity of testosterone...
