Another survey from the 'department of obvious':  A new survey found women spend more time staring at other women than they do guys, checking out the 'opposition's' clothing along with their hair, weight and how much cellulite they have.

Their eyes are also looking for dark or unflattering hair roots, handbags, and whether or not they have had plastic surgery.  Fun, huh?

  • One in 5 like to guess what country other women are from
  • A third said they would be more impressed by a female with a toned body than a toned man...
  • One in 10 said they always want to look better than "the opposition"
  • Nearly half pass along a compliment to a woman they don't know, and most of the time it's about her clothes.



Top 10 things women notice on other women:

1. Clothes
2. Hair style
3. Tan
4. Size
5. Cleavage
6. Cellulite
7. Hair color
8. Boob size
9. Shoes
10. Bag

joke of the day

A man was walking down the street when he came across a body lying on the sidewalk. He ran to a phone and called 911.

The operator asked him where he was and the man replied, “I’m on Sycamore Drive.”

“How do you spell that?” the operator asked.

“S-i-c-k…” the man began. “No, s-i-c-a…..” no, s-i-k-a…. oh heck, let me drag him over to Lake street and I’ll call you back.”
