Son-in-law was the first thing that came to me.

And guys do notice dirty floors. I remember going into a Longhorn Steakhouse in NC (where they throw the peanut shells on the floor) with a friend and he looked a little upset. When I asked him "was there a problem?", he said the floor was filthy. I explained to him about the tradition of tossing the peanut shells on the floor and then he was okay.

Also, there is dirty and there is DIRTY. It's a man thing.
Z, Just kidding about D. It would be kind of interesting though, now that you mentioned it, to know whether most men read it and thought son-in-law and most women thought sister-in-law. Or it could just be that I translated it as sister-in-law because I have one, while I don't have a son-in-law. Or it could just be this is another bad, bad hijacking. Although, now I am curious whether you have a son-in-law but not a sister-in-law. Do you?

I would say something relevant now to the original post but heck if I can remember what it's about.

Sorry Tony, Mr. Admin. Sir. To quote Boomer. Hey, where's Boomer been? Oh, sorry again.
