good women

first thing's first, this blog is not a place to say nasty things about women. they come in all shapes and sizes, there are good ones and bad ones. the good ones are hard to find. it's like looking for amber on the baltic coast. there's not much of it lying about because most of it's already been picked up. but, if you're not looking, you might find some. how do you know if you've found a good woman? it's a bit like deciding if you found a piece of amber or a piece of an old beer bottle that some lout fired into the sea. sometimes they look very similar. so what do you do? well, first you need to figure out whether she herself understands what a good woman is. start with a few simple tests. ask her to sew a button on your shirt, then ask her to boil an egg, then go out to the shops with her, lots of shops, and monitor her behaviour. does she want everything she sees, and can she even tell the difference between a quality garment and over-priced junk that'll fall apart next week? does she care if it'll fall apart?

by the way the button and egg thing - if she can't sew on the button or fails to boil the egg, send her on her away immediately and forget about the shops. what are her priorities in life, is she planning on building a "career" or is she more interested in creating a cosy home with lots of nippers running around and tasty smells coming from the kitchen?
