Don’t You Have Better Things to Do?

Don’t You Have Better Things to Do?

After not even getting the sniffles during the first three and a half years of the pandemic, I’ve now got Covid–for the second time in eight months. Both times were on trips in crowded situations. (First on a cruise in September and last week during a vacation in Las Vegas.)

While I’m doing much, much better now, I’m behind on deadlines so I’m re-running some Last Kiss gags while I catch up. I expect to be back with new gags in about a week.

Allergic to Men?

Allergic to Men?

Sophisticated scientific studies (which I just made up) show that at least 100 percent of women* suffer from occasional bouts of male sickness. This disease now has a name (because I just made it up too): Male-o-pause!

If you have symptoms of Male-o-pause (itching, anxiety, breathing) see your doctor. There! Don’t you feel better?

*Do men suffer from Male-o-pause? Who knows? Attempts at research usually end in drunken brawls.

SCENE: A woman with her head down and her hand to her forehead as if she's got a headache.

WOMAN: I’m allergic to men! They make me sick…when they’re not around!
