A Professor of English wrote the following on the chalk board:

“A woman without her man is nothing”



Then he asked his students to punctuate it correctly.



All the males in the class wrote:

“A woman, without her man, is nothing.”



All the females in the class wrote:

“A woman: without her, man is nothing.”

Yeah, colons are OK occasionally, but periods always suck.

Especially if you skip them when you don't intend to... LOL!

Cool post, as usual Ol Mike - I had the "ladies" punctuation figured out before I even read the rest of the message. :D Go figure...
