I broke my pencil a bunch, when I use to
write her through letters and such
One week to build the courage and the
endeavour a month
Through intentions of trust, I could never
reasemble her touch
Nothing resembled it much
And it doesn't matter what I say, there's no
exceptions for love
Acceptin' it's tough, but there's no reason
to argue
Cause when your feelings depart you it's
just something that hearts do.

| A language instructor was explaining to her class that French nouns,
unlike their English counterparts, are grammatically designated as
masculine or feminine.
Things like 'chalk' or 'pencil,' she
described, would have a gender association although in English these
words were neutral. Puzzled, one student raised his hand and asked,
"What gender is a computer?"
The teacher wasn't certain which it
was,and so divided the class into two groups and asked them to decide
if a computer should be masculine or feminine. One group was comprised
of the women in the class, and the other, of men. Both groups were
asked to give four reasons for their recommendation.
The group of women concluded that computers should be referred to in masculine gender because:
1. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
2. They have a lot of data but are still clueless.
3. They are supposed to help you solve your problems, but half the time they ARE the problem.
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that, if you had Waited a little longer, you could have had a better model.
The men, on the other hand, decided that computers should definitely be referred to in the feminine gender because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
3. Even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for later retrieval.
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck |
