Happy 2010 to you all..

I thought I would start of 2010 with a philisophical question. It is not shipping related perse' however I am sure some of you can relate.

Question

If a man speaks in the forest, and there are no women around to hear, is he still wrong?

According to my wife the answer is yes..

    One for the Ladies! Thanks KC....

    Makes me think that maybe the man entered the forest (in the first place) to get some peace from his wife!

    Plenty of western men up here in the himalayas (im in Bhutan remember) for that very reason!

    ha!
