Divorce is 38% more likely to occur if the wife earns 60% or more of family’s income

Let's Talk about Divorce
Let’s Talk about Divorce

What’s the first thing you think to yourself whenever you hear the news that a friend of yours is getting a divorce?

Usually, it’s “Why?” 

And it’s not always because you care about the people involved with the marriage — usually it’s just morbid curiousity.  Sometimes the marriage has just run its course and it’s time for both parties to move along to the next phase in their lives.  Sometimes there are personal, philosophical, moral, financial, or other extended circumstances that just make for juicy neighborhood gossip.

Web Watch knows one couple whose marriage was dissolved within 30 days of the wedding. It’s not important that it ended up being the right thing to do for the people involved, that entire event is still a topic of conversation many years later, in part because it’s just a great dramatic (and slightly amusing) story.

Which brings us to another reason why some marriages end in divorce, as seemingly brought up in the news when Sandra Bullock won her Oscar — sometimes men don’t want to be married to women who are more successful than they are.

10 Reasons to Date a Unicorn. 9 Reasons not to Date a Dinosaur.

Some people have a fascination with unicorns. Nay, a unicorn fetish.  (Get it? “Nay”? Ha!)

Do they really exist?  Perhaps.  For now, let’s imagine that they do.

Now, Web Watch doesn’t want to get into the whole debate regarding former Arizona congressman J.D. Hayworth’s comments about GAY MARRIAGE LEADING TO PEOPLE MARRYING THEIR HORSE, but the comment was funny enough that it got us thinking — especially when there are books devoted to the subject of man-horse marriages, such as DUMP HIM, MARRY THE HORSE: WHY A HORSE IS A BETTER MATCH THAN A MAN

Do you LOVE to cook? That’s what three in ten people say about themselves

Kiss the Cook
Kiss the Cook

Web Watch knows our way around a kitchen, even if it is to help someone else prepare a meal.  That’s because we know that people approach the kitchen as one of three groups:

  1. Some people love to cook. It’s in their blood.  These are the people you always are sure to invite to the local potluck dinner or bake sale.
  2. Some people don’t mind cooking – they just know how to make food that is edible enough to survive on.  It won’t be fancy, but don’t expect anything spectacular.  The majority of people out there should fall into this category.
  3. And there’s the third group that doesn’t know their way around a kitchen.  Web Watch knows someone who claims to be so inept in the kitchen that they can burn a pot of water.  (They tend to order out a lot.)

So it should come as no surprise that a recent Harris Poll of over 2000 adults discovered that THREE IN TEN AMERICANS (about a third) LOVE TO COOK

Here’s the breakdown of that stat:  79% of adults said they liked cooking, while only 30% said they loved cooking.  49% said that they only enjoy cooking when they have the time.  14% said they did not enjoy cooking at all, and 7% of survey respondents said that they did not cook at all.

How to perform the “Perfect Handshake” according to math experts, and other handshaking stats

The Secret Handshake
The Secret Handshake

Howie Mandel doesn’t shake hands.

Donald Trump tries not to shake hands.

World leaders are judged on who they shake hands with, and who shakes hands (or not) with them.

Yes, shaking hands is definitely an art, and the folks at CHEVROLET UK wanted to figure out exactly how to shake hands the right way, as a good solid handshake is often the key to closing a new car sale.

So they came up with THE GUIDE TO THE PERFECT HANDSHAKE, and even commissioned a university professor to come up with a mathematical equation to putting that perfect handshake together.

Why is there ice in the urinal? (and other bathroom sanitation ideas)

Toilet Time Targets for Potty Training
Toilet Time Targets for Potty Training

Female Web Watch readers should seldom have reason to enter the men’s room in public places (Jimmy Buffet concerts being a notable exception, where even Ally McBeal’s co-ed bathroom seems quaint in comparison).

But it they did happen to wander into the men’s room in their favorite watering hole – no pun intended – they may see that some businesses feel that it is important to dump a few bags of ice into the urinals for the evening.

All of which brings up the inevitable question as the ladies return from their trip:  WHY IS THERE ICE IN THE URINALS?  Heck, even the vertible New York Times decided to get in on the action by writing about ICE-FILLED URINALS in a travel article a while back.
