[quote:Anonymous Coward 772652:MV81MTQwMjVfMzgwNTQxMTZfRDY1REZEOEU=] . May 23, 2013 Hey guys, That cupcake recipe sharing thing made me laugh. It reminds me of [u]another book[/u]: [u]'You Just Don't Understand.' by Deborah Tannen[/u]. It's from about 25 years ago. She did some research on how men and women think and behave differently in relationships, from childhood to adulthood. They (researchers) found that men sometimes get angry and each other - in public - and end up being friendly with each other. That makes women crazy. But, it's how they develop respect for each other. They prove their worthiness by either physically fighting or, verbal fights. At home, or anywhere private, men really don't like to discuss problems, or anything, the way women do. Women talk to each other - what men consider gossiping - and tell stories about problems that might be useful to the other woman later on. Women have long memories, so the information might not be accessed for years. But, when a stressful situation happens and the adrenaline starts flowing, THAT is when the information literally POPS out. The downside of women spending too much time 'chatting' is when they don't know when to end the conversation. They get into 'one-upping' each other on difficult situations and can spend hours going back and forth when they don't really need to. That 'venting' is one way women calm each other down, but if the conversation goes on too long and they get tired and cranky, [u]then[/u] they get into arguments. THAT drives men crazy and they escape to wherever they can go. Well, it's Memorial Day Weekend for the next few days here in the U. S. A., a sad opportunity to reminisce about so many people who are gone - including Stuart. He is absolutely irreplaceable. Ragnell . [/quote]

Gosh,
I hope he isn't dying I have only just discovered his books and have made it one of my missions to meet him.
I feel criticism is easy sometimes. When people are out there we have a natural need to knock them down. No-one is perfect Stuart appears to have a keen sense of humour which always gets folk into trouble - bless 'em
Hang in there Stuart.
