Ebo,

I have decided to allow you to let me join this club. I have the proper parts, although I kinda have a guy-ish name. I can do lots of guy-y stuff, like mow the lawn and clean the pool. I'll kill any critters except spiders, 'cause they skeeve me out. The only thing I can't do is read a measuring tape properly. I say stuff like, "Ok, that's 3 inches and 2 little lines." My husband freaks out, because (what were the odds?) he is an actual carpenter. Also, I play backup rainstick in the Fireflies band. Also, I was the one who started the virtual shindig thread. I'll let you come to that, if you let me join the club. Whaddya say?

I wish I had easy simple advice for the ant thing, aside from sealing all the cracks and gaps. I got rid Argentinian ants but used 'Chinese chalk' - not a smart thing.

Plus, I can fix cars!

As one of my 7th graders told me: "Boys are dumb - throw rocks at them."

Gotta love kids!

My other car is a Firefly.

Sure, all you peole can join.

As to the question what do we do in this club...well, um, i'll turn that question over to our PR people.

Edit: I've just been informed we don't have PR people...Sorry. I guess nobody quite knows what the point is...

Can I join? Take the "mom" out of my name, and everyone thinks I'm a fella. I did that on purpose. My e-mail address doesn't include the "mom" part, and I therefore get some solicitations for men. You know, enlarge your peanuts!

I don't know much about plumbing, and I often break household appliances (long stories), but I installed extra shelving in every closet at my house to increase storage space. Would that help out in the clubhouse?

I do feel guilty, leaving out all our wonderful fella friends. Cause now they're going to create their own club, and then both clubs will start to hurl insults, resulting in a riot. Hey, I'm on to something here!

Oh, wait, back on the guilt trip. My hubby just interrupted me with flowers! Everyone say Awwwwwwwwww!

Heck ... I'm a PR person ... on hiatus mostly at the moment (nothing to do with Fox, just the cancer stuff ... which, on second thought, perhaps actually *is* from Fox after all! )

Let's see ... to do things the 'official' way we need to develop positioning and key messages. Are we a man-hatin' girls' club or are we a need-our-own-club-cuz-the-guys-already-got-sseveral? Or another take on this?

On another point entirely (PR people are prone to doing that, BTW ... changing the point of things ) ... I'm always nervous about your sig, Ebo ... I'd like to know why the dentists you visit are commenting on your gender in the first place? Sounds creepifying to me.

Cheers,

I wanna join. Pick me. Pick me. And I think that the purpose of this club is to swoon over then men of Firefly. Damn they are hot. Oh and Girl power is a must!
