Dear BBA,

As I was making dinner, the phone rang and I went to into the other room leaving the marinated chicken unattended, when I heard a huge crash, I quickly put the caller on hold, ran to the kitchen as our dog was quickly darting from the room with a piece of dripping chicken in his mouth chomping it down as fast as he could before I could catch him....the remaining chicken lying on the floor. Do I

A. Beat the dog (J/K ;)) although tempting lol ....to temporarily make me feel better

B. Scoop the remaining chicken off the floor, give it a little rinse off and some extra seasoning sonobody will know, ;)and I just will say Im not hungry and pass on the meal

C. Throw it all in the trash and call for pizza

Im waiting for your expertise, compassion, and understanding to totally enlighten me in handling of this problem

First of all you must not blame the dog, The dog was only doing what dogs do. It is okay however vent to the person that rang you at the inopportune time, and in some cases it would be completley justified to send them the bill for the pizza. As to the remaining chicken dinner sprawled across the Kitchen I have a question, And it is absolutley critical as to how to advise on this matter...Was the chicken on the floor longer than 5 seconds??? If yes there little chefery that can salvage this foul. If the Poultry was rescued from the floor (minus the savory puppy snack) in less than 5 seconds then and only then two dashes of salt and a generous lathering of KC Masterpiece will save the day...Of course the Chicken must be served in portions to hid the missing chunks.

The 5 second rule is a time honored tradition that many scientist have dated as far back as Medevil times when Charliton Dunggottery dived on a fallen sliced pear that was meant for his Royal Mistress Prudice Snootyger, He briskly blew on the fruit and said "It's all good chicky baby, Give it a go" She did and all though later she died of a fatal stomach virus after several days of vomiting...The five second rule was born.

Soo basically i'm advising you to buy a slower dog, Cook only in the microwave, and take the phone off the hook....NEXT!

Ahhh! A baby shower :). Please be careful baby showers can be very dangerous, It's much safer to give a baby a bath...anywho

I do have some tips to keep this fun entertaining and most of all not overload the host (you). Food - Keep It Simple, Buffet style finger foods are the way to go. Sandwiches, Chips, Veggies, Dips, Tater Salad and lots of cold drinks...Keep food out throughout the duration of the shower and make sure you set up good traffic flow, Food will stimulate the conversation and keep people mingling. A little tip - Use paper and plastic for serving and strategically place 2 or 3 trash bins throughout the high traffic areas and clean up will be a breeze. Don't forget the cake!

Games - Where do I begin YOU HAVE TO HAVE PRIZES, I'm just gonna tell you straight guys don't care much for baby showers...We just don't Oh we love Babies...baby showers...Not So Much! Having said that give prizes they don't have to be expensive but shiney helps, If there is a prize on the line the men are going to perk up, Sweat, sit on the edge of their seat and do everything possible to win that Prize...We have to, Don't ask why we just do. It can be a box of paper clips and we have to try to win it...It's a curse really.

A fun game to play is partner up, Set a time limit and see who can make the best toilet paper diaper on their spouse/friend/buddy etc. Another is pass the Poopee Diaper you need a timer with a buzzer everyone gathers in a circle and passes the poopee diaper clockwise until the timer goes off, The poopee diaper holder is eliminated...Continue until only the winner remains...Remeber vary the times on the buzzer...Have fun...NEXT!

This is a tough one, I suggest you use the toner to highlite under your eyes for Saturdays football game and go with it...Also on the plus side never underestimate the power of Brunette. As for the bumbling co-workeer that showered you in toner, Super Glue is cheap and pay backs are a B.

Kick up a notch, When I'm looking for a fun quick meal I also feel a little Mexican. Burritos, Chicken Soft Tacos, Nachos all zesty and delicious and most of all easy.

Taste tip use Thinly Shreded Mild Cheddar in your Mexican dishes and you will notice how well it mixes with all the other flavors and the sour cream.

Or Roasted Chickens at krogers have graced our table many a times on our more harried days.

With the versatility you described in all of those combinations it's a worthwhile investment, Besides your your worth it...Spoil yourself...If both are not an option from a man prespective the open heels are way sexier.

Dear Angus,

What can I do about my husband, who has nothing better to do on weekends but sit in his favorite chair with his universal remote, surrounded by our dogs. He keeps his laptop in front of him, a cooler full of cold drinks beside him, and a box of Wheat Thins on his reading table. My husband is a nice man, but is slowly but surely beginning to resemble a bowl of jello with limbs. Even our once rambuctious dogs, who go everywhere he goes, are losing their drive. The only time any of them budge is to eat or go to the bathroom. I've tried everything I can think of--cooking his favorite foods and setting a plate on the dining room table, dressing up in my old school girl uniforms, pretending to pour his favorite scotch down the sink, unplugging the wireless router....but he won't budge. I can't get a rise out of him. He's been there since six o'clock last night. :shock: I'm considering having him bronzed--at least he'd be easier to maintain.

Is my plight hopeless? Is there something--anything?--that might get his attention?

This is absolutley acceptable, The only situations that would call for a rewrap are as follow.

1.) Usage of Masking or Duct tape

2.) leaving the Price on the package (this only applies if the gift is a real cheappy) And hey you did say your husband bought it. ;)

3.) If the Sports page in question contains any visable pictures of Pitino, Jurich of Petrino in which case the paper must not only be removed but it should be burned as well.

A bow is perfectly acceptable but we are talking about in-laws here so why all the glitz?

Oh Man, Don't you hate that you finally get the conversation on life support and suddenly mention something as mundain as a bird and she goes into some long winded diatribe about hummingbirds. Well actually hummingbirds are very interesting did you know...

Perhaps the earliest written introduction of the hummingbird to our European ancestors occurred in 1526 when Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo y Valdés wrote "...no bigger than the end of a man's thumb... and of such swiftness in flight you cannot see the movement of their wings...The colors shine like those of the little birds artists paint to illuminate the margins of holy books." This description makes it understandable why hummingbirds have been called "flying jewels."

In 1770, John Lawson wrote in his diary "The hummingbird is the miracle of all our winged animals. He is feathered as a bird, but gets his living as the bees." In 1775, George Louis Leclerc wrote in L'histoire naturelle "...of all animated beings, this is the most elegant in form and brilliant in colour. The stones and metals polished by art are not comparable to this gem of nature."

The ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is one of 23 species of hummers that frequent North America and the only species that breeds in the eastern United States. This species is the second most widely distributed hummingbird in North America. When most people think of hummers, they think of those in the western United States. That is where 16 different species breed in this country, but do not forget the rubythroat. It is a remarkable little bird and its beauty rivals many of its western counterparts.

Anywho just when your about to explode, You tell them I have to get off the phone I'm starved they offer up some crappy solution to your hunger problem. Hey that reminds me have you ever hade this...

Apple Brown Betty . Best served with ice cream.

Ingredients:
Recommend this recipe to a friend

Pudding:
11 medium sized apples, preferably Spy
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter

Syrup:
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup hot water
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Apple Brown Betty
Directions:

Pudding:
Core and slice apples in eighths. (Peel them too if you prefer.) Spread them over the bottom of a lightly greased 9 x 12 inch baking pan.

Sprinkle cinnamon over the apples.

To make topping, mix the flour and 3/4 cup brown sugar together, cut in the butter until crumbly. Set aside.

Syrup:
Mix 2/3 cup brown sugar with the hot water and lemon juice.

Pour half of the syrup over the apples. Sprinkle the topping mixture evenly over top. Pour the remaining syrup over the topping.

Bake at 350 degrees F. for 60 minutes. Serve warm

until eventually you give in and can't remember the reason hmmmmmm....

Whats the question?

Oh yeah sorry, Stand your ground also offer up the ole "I'll call you back" and remember to begin you end of call pitch early in the call. Offer up how busy you are, Sound harried...and say things like "theres just not enough hours in the day...If that doesn't work go to her house and smash her about the head with the reciever, Should do the trick.

Puts a wrinkle in that whole way too polite thing though.

Hey BBA...I'm glad this was moved back and I hope you'll continue answering. The entertainment value was in (primarily) women asking afunny guy questions and getting the male perspective. So...I just want to say I hope you'll return and also ask....How does it feel to be the male entertainment? ;)

Just click your heels three times and say...It's almost Basketball season...It's almost basketball season....

Now this is a tuffy, Can you tell me if this release was a commentary of the play on the field? Was it clearly a case of too much drinking? Or was it immediatley after the officials made on their "Special" Calls in which case I would advise patting the guy on the back and saying "I feel your pain brother, Now GET OUT OF THE LADIE ROOM!!!!"

Once again, as so often happens in my life I find myself blissfully unaware. I did'nt even know I had been relocated, Of course this thread should stay here...This thread is for discourse between many wonderful ladies and one fairly goofy dude, I certainly wouldn't let just any ole stranger wonder into the deepest darkest recesses of my brain...eeeuuuhhhh! I don't even like going there.

As far as being the Male Entertainment i have much to say foremost of which is...Sorry I'm not better looking :blush:. I wish I would get more questions on, What makes us guys tick...Whats a matter ladies, skeered?

Dear Angus,

My husband has long told me that , regarding attractiveness, it doesn't matter how not- good -looking a woman is , there will always be a man who is willing to ...eh.. consort with her.

Angus , what do you think.?

I used to find his statement difficult to accept. Now that I'm older and wiser, I wonder if he might be correct.

Dear Angus

Why do guys say "yes dear" and look directly at you and then later have no clue what your talking about saying you never told them?

Still confused after all these years

I think your husband may be correct, Me personally i'm more shallow than a springtime puddle. I like attractive women with money, Conversly attractive wealthy women view me a ugly and broke...Go Figure. I have personally seen guys flirt with big mean, smelly honory tattooed women...And if they said no the fella moved on to the ugly ones. A great philospher once said "The girls all get prettier at closing time" Not my thing though I've always been more of a long term guy.

What makes me tick? I'm a purist really, I love the classics sometimes i'll curl up with a good book (Playboy) Or watch some socially relevent television (Baywatch) Or I could soothe my mood with some classical music (For Those about to Rock!) I also enjoy the company of Hound Dogs, Cats and Children probably in that order. :cool:

It's the lack of variety man! Besides makes it way to easy on the preparer of the meal;)

Thats a classic guy thing, We can with almost no effort give the illusion of attention and sincerety and oddly enough we have no idea whats going on around us...What makes this talent so special is the genuine ability to not care what is going on around us...That is a true state of grace in guydom.

I never said this inner look would be pretty, We're guys lady...Clearly 10 - 20's is more money than 2 - 100's. See that makes perfect sense to men... I see this going to be a very long thread.

I am really confused, as I am of the opinion that one needs to be a guy to be way into casseroles!
The guys around here love the one dish dinner, maybe the consider it a great alternative to starvation or cooking for themselves?

you may be right and I can see your point...mine just like meat to be relatively separate from vegetables. I also believe the guys in my family are much more into the meat that is served ina meal than I am. But, casseroles might be too heavy to be to the liking of many women.

Weeellllll, I'll explain this way. You live in California where tofu and fish tacos are commonly referred to as food. I live in Kentucky where what is manly food becomes a little more complicated...For example Ravioli Manly, Waldorf Salad not so much. In Kentucky Casseroles do have a place there primary function are to be made and delivered to someone who has just suffered a loss in the family, Their secondary purpose are to be served as table filling dishes on Thanksgiving. To really complicate things is Hamburge Helper, We're all over that crap!
