Saturday Afternoon Humor

Mom brings the funny via e-mail.

You know how they say a boat is referred to as "She" and classified as
female? Well, I believe everything in this world actually does have a
gender. And here are some of them:

ZIPLOC BAGS are male, because they hold everything in, but you can
always see right through them.

SHOES are male, because they are usually unpolished, with their tongues
hanging out.

PHOTOCOPIERS are female, because once turned off, they take a while to
warm up.

TIRES are male, because they go bald and are often over-inflated.

HOT AIR BALLOONS are male, because to get them to go anywhere you have
to light a fire under them and, of course, there's the hot air part.

SPONGES are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.

THE SUBWAY is male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.

AN HOURGLASS is female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS are male, because they haven't evolved much over the last 5,000
years, but they are handy to have around.

A REMOTE CONTROL is female ... Ha! You thought I'd say male. But consider
this: it gives men pleasure, they'd be lost without it, and while they don't
always know the right buttons to push, they keep on trying.
