I must say, however, that these days I see the ladies doing all of the heavy-lifting jobs and driving 18-wheelers and down in the ditches repairing sewers. They do almost everything and do it very well and you seldom see them standing around rubbing their bellies while smoking a cigarette and squeezing an empty beer can. The ladies are still are number one in delivering babies. <BR/><BR/>Have a nice weekend.<BR/><BR/>Abraham Lincoln<BR/><A HREF="http://brookvilledailyphoto.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Brookville Daily Photo</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28981938.post-60417199328100722132007-07-20T06:01:00.000-05:002007-07-20T06:01:00.000-05:00Seems the kind of picture my grandson would be exc...Seems the kind of picture my grandson would be excited about.
