Eight Things a Burglar Won’t Tell You

Should you spend your money on a home security system? A look inside a burglar’s mind might help you decide.

1.Of course I look familiar.I was here just last week cleaning your carpets,painting your shutters,or delivering your new refrigerator.

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock,the salesman immediately finds it,and the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well,the deal can be and often is completed inless than five minutes.

For a man,small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants.In that case,thesalesman,tries to sell the customer something else.“I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be thecolour you mentioned.”Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is: “This is the right colour and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

However,a woman in almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on needand she is only “having a look around”.She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her.She will try on any number ofthings.Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another,often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
