It's TRUE!

We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
Routine... (1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes the dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three metre exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman. Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL....More routine......
(6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat Important again:
(8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN. More routine...
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes. And most important of all:
(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his incredible cooking ability.
(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed her ‘night off’ and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women!

GIG this weekend...

The Knockouts vocalist Ginger Nutts is taking Saturday date night off to play with her band at the Great Britain Hotel in Richmond this weekend.

Though a large number of Melbourne men are disappointed, Ginger says "They must understand -The Knockouts is my first love."

An original four piece band, The Knockouts sound something like The B52s, Pulp Fiction, Patsy Cline and The Outcasts colliding with an out of control freight train driven by the Sex Pistols. Somebody said that watching The Knockouts is like getting a punch in the face and a kiss at the same time.

Guitar pickin', upright bass slappin' hillbilly outfit The Rechords will also rock the GB with their rock/hill/r&billy set.

See Ginger and the lads go Nutts at this fun gig at the Great Britain Hotel, Church St, Richmond, Saturday November 7.
