Retired Men - Deep Thinkers

I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer.
The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.

My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing, and I said, "Nothing."
She then said that's what you did yesterday—to which I replied—
"I WASN'T DONE , SO I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF FINISHING RIGHT NOW." 
The reason I said "nothing" instead of saying "just thinking" is because she then
would have asked, "About what?"  At that point I would have had to explain that
men are deep thinkers about various topics, which would lead to other questions.

Finally I pondered an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting
kicked in the nuts?  Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful
than a guy getting kicked in the nuts, but how could they know?

Well, after another beer, and some more heavy deductive thinking, I have come up
with an answer to that question.  Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having
a baby, and even though I obviously couldn't really know, here is the reason for my
conclusion.  A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice
to have another child."

On the other hand, you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."
I'm not the fastest FJ rider, I am 'half-fast', the fastest slow guy....
