>>Rule #3:

>>Rule #4:

>>Do not buy men socks. Do not  buy men ties. And never buy men bathrobes.

>>Rule  #5:

>>
>>You can buy men new remote controls to replace the ones they  have

>>
>>Rule #6:
>>
>>Do not buy a man any of those fancy  liqueurs, except Godiva.  If you 
>>do, it will sit in a cupboard for 23 years.
>>
>>
>>Rule  #7:
>>
>>Do not buy any man industrial-sized canisters of after shave  or 
>>deodorant. I'm told they do not stink - they are earthy.
>>
>>
>>Rule  #8:
>>
>>Buy men label makers. Almost as good as cordless drills. Within  a 
>>couple  of weeks there will be labels absolutely everywhere. Socks.
>>Shorts.
>>Cups. Saucers. Door. Lock. Sink. You get the idea. No one  knows why.
>>
>>
>>Rule #9:
>>
>>Never buy a man anything that says "some  assembly required" on the

>>
>>
>>Rule #10:
>>
>>Good places to shop for  men include Northwest Iron Works, Parr 
>>Lumber, Home Depot, Lowes, John Deere,  Valley RV Center, and Les 
>>Schwab Tire. (NAPA Auto Parts and Sears' Clearance  Centers are also 
>>excellent men's

>>Auto, eh?
>>Must be something I need.  Hey isn't this a starter for a '68 Ford 
>>Fairlane? Wow! Thanks.")
>>
>>
>>Rule  #11:

>>Men enjoy danger. That's why they never cook - but they will  barbecue.

>>hamburger?"
>>
>>
>>Rule #12:

>>he gets a  label maker.
>>
>>
>>Rule #14:
>>
>>It's hard to beat a really good wheelbarrow or  an aluminum extension 
>>ladder. Never buy a real man a step ladder. It must  be an extension 
>>ladder. No one knows why.
>>
>>
>>Rule #15:
>>
>>Rope. Men love  rope. It takes us back to our cowboy origins, or at  
>>least the Boy  Scouts. Nothing says love like a hundred feet of 3/8"
