Subject: BS: Shape up you women...right now!
This arrived at my 'workstation' (ha ha) yesterday, and different varieties have continued to come in thick and fast.

In one of the varieties (they're from the 1955 edition of "Good Housekeeping Magazine" I believe) there's a GREAT cartoon, and a hilariously revised text....something about "don't tell him YOUR problems, HIS are far more important!"

I BELIEVE this is straight and legit. I can picture Mrs. Lott and Mrs. Bush looking at it and wondering where the jokes are...but bein' a housewife in the 50s sure wasn't a joke.

My favourite bit of advice is "washing the childrens' little hands and faces" before Dad comes home from his 9-5 pressure job at Enron

Pray I get the blue clicky right.....if not, can someone bail me out.
