The story of the mysterious key, or what do mean it’s my fault!!

But first the mans prayer

I am a man, but I can change. If I have too, I guess. Amen.


I need the help of every man on the planet on this one; I want to prove once and for all that all women are crazy. Listen to this story and you tell me how in the name of God almighty it ended up being my fault.

Okay as a perfect engineer male type I am so anal about backups, and that’s why I’m covered for just about anything. Example I have an extra emergency roll of toilet paper hidden behind the potty just in case, I carry TP to the construction sites I visit because tech manual paper no matter how you crumple it will hurt your butt… I have two sets of keys made for every car or door we own, and I carry an extra valet key for my truck in my wallet just in case. (Disney taught me that one)

Now the rest of the story… Dark and hungry Ed arrived at his house working a full 29 hours all he wanted to do was crash and enjoy the sounds of his computer quietly humming away. Then the wife announces it granddaughter #28th (* see side note #1) birthday and we have to go to the party.

So we’re off to the daughter’s house, a few happy birthday songs here and there then we all sit to relax while presents are opened… then it began, a simple little command that would cause pressure ripples so strong men in the Soviet Union felt them. The Wife (* see side note #2) comes up to me and says let me borrow your keys to my van????

I as a mere man, must ask the simple little question of (hold on to your hats folks) where are your keys? To which I get the standard woman response of “I don’t know”… Now to most men on the planet the fact of losing your keys is to the most part A BIG THING am I right? Of coarse I’m right… why is that I wonder (* see side note #3) cause I’m a man that’s why. Now the wife as any woman would just smiles says I don’t know, like its your job to find her missing keys. So reluctantly I submit my keys and check my watch because in 2 minutes I go tracking down my keys. (I got them back)

The next morning she asks me if I have her keys??? Why do women do this? For the same reason they start to watch a movie, get on the phone talk for 1 hour to Tink, then get off the phone look at the TV screen and ask you “who’s she? Why are they on that building? Where is the other guy?”

Needless to say I pick up my keys to go to work, but something is different, as a man I immediately notice key #3 and #4 are missing, in a panic I yell out “SHARON” (oh sorry wrong show) “DONNA dial 911 keys are gone”… I’m informed that she borrowed my keys to her van because she still has not found her keys, and once again I’m asked “do you know where they’re at?” I say no for the 4th time and go to work my mind at ease for a bit because the two keys are safe right?

Three days later her keys were found at the daughters house, massive rejoicing all around the world. If baffles me that a man will loose a set of keys, but will panic, loose sleep, not eat, take a bath, or shower, until they are found. A woman on the other hand will just say oh well, and then just ask you over and over if you have them.

At this point the keys she borrowed were in fact returned to me #3 and #4 are placed back where they belong, all is well in the world until that night when we get ready to go to dinner. Her van was free my truck was blocked so we take her van, but there is a problem the door key will not work!!! The ignition key (* see side note #4) works just fine. I look at the key closely and come to realize its not my old key, my old key said GM (general motors) this key say 8 that’s it just an 8. I look to Donna who gives me that look as I ask her this is not my key, what did you do with my GM key?

Here it is the world just stands so still as she looks at me with that woman look and says and I quote “I don’t know what your talking about, that’s the key I was using, so what did you do to it?” No NO NO this could not be the key you were using it does not work, this is not my key I want my %^$(@# GM Key back… again “I don’t have it what did you do with it?” and to make it worse for the next two weeks every stinking time she looses her keys and takes mine she comes back and yells at me because the number 8 key does not work… ITS NOW MY FAULT. Will somebody tell me how this can be?

But wait theeeeeeers more, a week later I come home and she greets me at the door holding a key in her hand and behold it’s a GM key, she sneers at me, holding her hand at her hip in an inquisitive fashion, and says “ I found this under the seat of my van… I look at her and say “and?” she looks back and says we’ll its your key how did it get there?

The score, and story so far….

Donna looses her keys, and it’s my fault.

Donna borrows my keys, finds her keys, and returns my keys but one key is not the same key, it does not work on any vehicle we own, and it’s my fault.

Donna finds the correct key in her van, and wants to know how it got there because it’s my fault.

We go to war with Iraq and it’s my fault.

So no matter what we do as men in or on this planet, it’s our fault. Every time a woman does anything wrong it’s the man fault? Am I right because if I am then it’s my fault, which means it’s a double negative so they cancel, and it’s not my fault right?

Here is my theory… Donna is having an affair with a guy that drives an 8 car, she lost her key at his place, borrowed his keys because it was his fault, switched keys gave mine to him, and his to me, then switched them back… Aha you see I win cause I kept the 8 key so now he’s stuck without a key and its…. Yes my fault!!!!!

At least my lock box with the video’s (* see side note #5) is safe.



Side note pertaining to those little * everywhere

Side note #1 (Grandchildren) * I have some 30 or so grandkids, when we learned in bible class that the lord said “go now be fruitful and multiply” my children thought he was speaking directly to them. Although this is great at pin events the chances of you getting any type of rest is nil next to none.


Side note #2 (Wife) * significant other placed on the planet to cause men who were bad in a previous life much pain and suffering in this life to pay for previous sins. (To date I can only assume that I must have been Rasputin, Ganges Kahn, or a renegade Nazi U-boat commander)


Side note #3 (losing keys) * written in the Ed Otero why oh why do we get married book of words, in chapter 5 sub-section 3 paragraph 2 titled “Why men panic when keys are missing” he breaks it down into to following reasons

#1 the key to the safety deposit, closet, or lock box where we keep oh say… Videos of midgets, magazines, pictures of the ex wife, girlfriend, that crazy girlfriend in the 11th grade, you know things we swore we got rid of when we got married, is on that key ring.

#2 the keys to the car man, we can lose our wheels if not careful, and to most our car is the place where we can escape drive around listen to head-banger music as loud as we want, without that nagging sound of “Will you please stop listening to that loud junk and act you age for crying out loud”.

#3 the house we installed the $3500.00 security system, the $450.00 nuclear deadbolt, but if the key is missing… We men get this image of a group of terrorist finding the lost keys, going to the house, walking in and drinking all our beer, eating all of our stuff, watching the TV and hiding the remote. The only good thought here is after they drink all that beer on the way out they’ll pee on those evil little pink flamingos she has on the front lawn. :p

#4 who wants to tell the boss that we lost the keys to the hollow mountain doors, all 20 of them keyed alike at a very large cost to replace 100 some odd keys for all the employees.

#5 now we will never know what that little brown key was that has been on the key ring forever goes too.

Side note #4 (Ignition key *) For the ladies… ignition that little hole thingy on the steering wheel thingy that you put your key into to make the car go vroom vroom.

Side note #5 (videos *) All videos are Disney type videos even the dirty parts in Who framed roger rabbit were edited for taste and values. :p

It’s my fault. I was born, and I’m being punished for the people I made suffer in another life. Ricky Ricardo said in song “That’s right the woman is un smart girl” This is a true I swear story. The names were not changed to protect the innocent hey &^&$#@ them. I feel like I live in a Monty Pythons flying circus show.
 
Wow, it's like you just stepped out of my life!

Last month, my wife "misplaced" her cell phone. Since it's my responsibility to keep track of both my and her belongings, and since it would be my fault if she were to be stranded with no phone, I let her borrow mine. Next morning, no phone for me, but I can do without. 2 days later, hers is lying around, and MINE is gone! Man, it's getting to be smashing time! (Picture Stitch with his San Fransisco model!) I ask where my phone might be, and I'm told.........."I don't know." Now I know what they teach the girls in jr. high when they take them to watch that movie that the boys don't get to see. Daily for the next 2 weeks I ask "Seen my phone?" The daily response is "no, but I'm sure it'll turn up." Not "no, I've looked but can't find it. Sorry I'm completely incapable of keeping track of anyone's things." Finally, while emptying the drain water from my R2D2 pop cooler, I find my phone under the cooler! Silly me, right where it belongs!
 
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

Didn't you guys ever learn that it is never the woman's fault??? And if by some slim chance it appears to be her fault, it is only because she was mislead by a man.
 
Don't you think that they would get it already!!!

By the way Eddie...have you seen my little pin book?????
 

Amen brother Hades I got her a Nextel so we can alert it and watch her run around the house chasing the beeps its like Pavlov's dogs its a hoot.

yes dear you pin bag is next to your phone I'll beep it from here

Fetch girl go get it..... good girl.

Disclaimer: I'm not implying that Donna is a dog and anybody that does will die!
 
I just want to say that Michelle laughs when I take that back up roll of toilet paper from the hotel to take in the car!!!!!!
And, Ed it's not your fault it's all those females in the family, they are turning your brain to mush!!!!!!!!
 
A t-shirt I saw one time had this on it: "If a man says something in the middle of a woods and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong ? "

Ed,
No matter how you make the story sound, your still WRONG.
don't try to prey on our sympathy, we all know you better than that, your WRONG.
Donna is too nice a person to make mistakes (except she did marry you) so if there is a problem in your household I am sure it was your fault because you are WRONG.
And Women don't even think about having all those extra keys because we never make mistakes, men need extra keys because they are frequently WRONG. Peggie
 
The answer would be ...... YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
One for the men woo hoo

On another board they suggested that Donna is having an affair with #8 Dale Earnhart Jr, so if looses another race thats my fault as well, I guess I should I sell the key on Ebay then? Or wait until he wins if he can find another key that is. :p

So as I see it women are always right, men are always wrong, and we need to accept that, and go on through life as mindless sheep that mow the yard?

You all need to read my new book

Men are from Mars, and women are the meteorites that crash into Mars.
 
ROTFLMAO!!!

I got a third of a way through it and called Walt to come listen to it. By the time I got half way through it I had tears streaming down my face and couldn't see what I was reading.

Ed,

Walt wanted me to let you know he still has one of those keys still on his ring that he just doesn't know what it belongs to anymore.


Donna,

I agree with you!


Question, what is it with men and TP!!

Looks like you got it right this time.

Also the link in your last thread goes back to this thread. Another thing that is all your fault.
:p
 
ED!!!!

My remote for the VCR won't work!!! What did you do???

Love ya mean it, and that's your fault too!!
Winnie
 
Ed, I have to agree with you completely.

Until Judy retired she was a Computer Specialist for the government including several years doing hardware repairs and software installs and instruction. Also, she is the TV watcher in the house and was the one who wanted DirecTV.

When there is a problem either with her computer or with the satellite reception guess who asks others in the house for help. The cat says it is not in her job description, and that leaves only one person to call tech support.

Feh!
 
It's not that the men are always wrong, but the women are always right. You guys should know this by now :)!!
 
I think I live on your alternate plane of existance. Everything you described is exactly the opposite in my house. He loses everything...........and it is my fault--where did I put it? He never misplaces anything. I hide his keys, wallet, cellphone, on-call pager, etc. because I am vindictive and secretly enjoy watching him search high and low--evil snicker/cackle here:mad: ! This is the price he must pay so I can get my giggles which are actually the fuel I use to make his dinner, so therefore, very important! He has even lost all of the keys to his truck door--I repeatedly reminded him to get extras made--he works all day near a key-maker--but that never happened. So how does he lock the truck--he doesn't--he relies on "The Force"!!!!:confused:

His extreme intelligence in many other things manly......IE, fixing anything to do cars, motorcycles, computers,__________(you fill in the blank here), these are his saving graces--and the fact that he isn't hard on the eyes and claims to love me unconditionally!!!

In short, I simpathize.
