• Why Men Open Car Doors for Ladies (and Paris Hilton)

  
  TwoFreeLinks.com — Authority: 119
  This is a great question, one every man should be asked or ask themselves. Why DO we open car doors for you? Clearly you have functioning arms and legs of your own, so opening it yourself shouldn’t present much of a problem. Besides, having us open the door means you have to wait while we get out of the car and run ...

• Something fun from Afghanistan

  
  Muhlberger's Early History — Authority: 128
  Truthfully, there is very little cheerful news out of Afghanistan, and I fear that if Obama goes ahead with the war there, it will ruin the American economy and destroy the American Constitution.

• The Holy Grail of True Knighthood

  
  Mary Victrix — Authority: 455
  True knighthood is the Holy Grail of manhood, a revelation attainable only by the pure.  The proud are ever barred from taking a draught from it. Our very captivation with the Holy Grail consists in the fact that it has not been found and only few have even seen it.  And, of course, the reason that the mysterious ...
