Made Me Laugh

Six husbands will be dropped on an island.

There is no fast food. Each man must keep his assigned house clean, cook, do laundry, and pay a list of “pretend” bills with not enough money.

In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each week.

Each man must remember the birthdays of his wife, all their friends and relatives, and send cards out on time.

He must also make casseroles and pies for a social function.

Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house, planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times.

The men will only have access to television when all chores are done. There is only one TV and a remote with dead batteries.

The men must shave their legs and wear makeup daily, which they will apply to themselves while driving. Each man must adorn himself with jewelry, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes, keep their nails polished and eyebrows groomed. The men must try to get through each day without food or stains on their clothing.

During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings but never once complain or slow down from other duties. They must try to explain what a tampon is for when a 6-yr old boy finds it in the purse.

They must attend church, and find time at least once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting. He will need to read a book and then pray each night without falling asleep.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each husband will be required to know all of the following information: wife’s birthday, shoe size, and clothing size. Also: wife’s favorite color, middle name, favorite snack, favorite song, and favorite drink.

They must clean up after a sick child and wife at 2:00 a.m. And then spend the remainder of the day tending to that child and wife, waiting on them hand and foot until they are better. They must have a loving, age appropriate reply to, “You’re not the boss of me!”

The wives vote them off the island based on performance. The last man wins only if…he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment’s notice.

If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over and over again for the next 18-25 years.
