"Everybody keeps saying that women are smarter than men, but did you ever see a man wearing a shirt that has buttons down the back?" An old Indian was asked what his wife's name was. "Wife Name - Three Horse." That s an unusual name for your wife Three Horse What does it mean? It s old Indian name means... Nag Nag Nag A doctor is the only man who can tell a woman to take her clothes off and then bill her for it Why is it that anyone driving slower than you is an idiot and anyone driving faster than you is a maniac? A man walks into his bedroom and sees his wife packing her suitcase. He asks: "What are you doing?" She answers: I'm moving to Sydney. I heard that prostitutes there get paid $400 for doing what I do for you for free." Later that night, getting ready to leave, the wife walks into the bedroom and sees her husband packing his suitcase. When she asks where he is going, he replies: "I'm coming too. I want to see how you live on $800 a year..."
