		<description>That&#039;s an easy one, a pitbull.

Being a pitbull is both a blessing and a curse.
Once i set a goal, i really sink my teeth in it and don&#039;t let go until that goal is reached  :twisted: . 
But this can also mean that some silly thing that don&#039;t really matter, takes up a lot of time  :oops:

		<description>Interesting to me that a bundle of sticks that was a chore and a burden to carry - morphed into a feminine connotation and description referring to a wife!  :eek:  :shock: 

More recently, men have refered to their wives or girlfriends (affectionately of course) as a &#039;ball and chain&#039;...

Even Elvis had a take on it:

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lk9UC8EoyIg

Are these truly a comment on relationships - or more a complaint denoting disappointment in the expectations unfulfilled in them?

What are the time honored sayings, words, or sentiments that women have come up with for some similar feelings about Men?

&#039;My Knight in shining Armor&#039;, &amp; &#039;Mr. Wonderful&#039; are the only ones that comes to mind... :grin:  ...there must be others...but being a guy, I probably block them out sub-consciously... :lol: 

These lessons are indeed interesting, educational, and thought provoking...</description>
