I am MORE than happy to sit in the car and wait for my knight in shining armor to change the tire (I called AAA when my battery died last week and my husband wasn't home) and have the stuffed animal won for me (but please, not the minion.) ;) Men can open the door for me and pull out my chair, too. :) I think I love your grandmother. She was right on the money.

Plus it doesn't help that women are so willing to get out of the car and change the darn flat tire, or shoot and win their own stuffed animal at the fair.

I blush-ed....<br /><br />I read the first three of the series, but not read any more for some reason. I do have some on my wishlist with Recorded Books. 21 or so CDs I think....that would make for a good long roadtrip book.Pinoy Videohttp://dvideotv.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-50956727021865440102011-03-18T15:44:47.177-04:002011-03-18T15:44:47.177-04:00I do wish more men could be like JF sadley most m...I do wish more men could be like JF sadley most men are not...or atleast the young ones. As a single women in my late 20's I can tell you there are none.

I'...Long time follower, first time commentor :-)<br />I've asked myself that same exact question and can only conclude...<br />In the 250 years since Jamies time, men just keep getting more annoying and wimpier. What we need is a return to the manly hunter/gatherer/provider type man. Although I think Jamie Fraser will always be in a league of his own....mmmmmmmmm will have to go goggle at my copy of The Exile again I think :-)<br />MeganAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17566285972607181268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-37966181073243093012011-03-09T13:09:50.632-05:002011-03-09T13:09:50.632-05:00So funny, and yet, sadly, so true.So funny, and yet, sadly, so true.Marianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2193939705192575193.post-88425748964904225642011-03-09T11:40:12.100-05:002011-03-09T11:40:12.100-05:00Hey, thanks for the shout out on my Jamie post!

Well, after stripping Claire to the waist to make his point - Jamie asks Murtaugh: "Do ya think I'm a pultroon or a voluptuary?"<br />Murtaugh's answer? "I don't know, but I DO know you're going to be dog meat when we let go of her arms!"<br />Oh, Murtaugh!!! :)Diane Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315382569333924138noreply@blogger.com
