Santa's Reindeer Were All Female
I was emailed this from a lady. It would figure a woman would send me this.
REMEMBER THIS AT CHRISTMAS TIME
According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.
We should've known... ONLY women would be able to drag a fat-ass man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.

In my household i'm the map holder I'm the only one with a sense of direction! LOL Chris has it so bad that if he turns down a street and realises it's the wrong one when he turns around and gets back to the place he turned onto the street from he can't remember if he turned onto it from the left or right he always looks my way to see where I'm pointing LOL!

"Rein dears!!" That's FUNNY Rowan!!
Ya know, this is my whole problem with these so called analytical minds. Let's just ignore the fact there has to be MAGIC involved and 'reason' from there...
"Rein dears"... that's still killing me!!

Maps have many useful purposes.
They are good for rolling up and swatting flies with.
They make good floor mats.
In the event of emergency they can be burned as signal flares.
They don't taste bad, either.

Too funny!
I too have a humorous map anecdote. Asking my date to read the map whilst I drove, I inquired as to which way to go at a left/right branch in the freeway. The answer??
"Go up"
"Up"??? What does that mean??? LOL!!!

Men get all this grief about maps, but we never get credit for all the times we make it where we're going just fine without one.
