People used to ask why the World Series was called that when only American teams played in it.

The response was always that it was initially sponsored by the World Newspaper which is a fact but apparently that has nothing to do with the naming of the competition.

As far as the original organisers were concerned baseball was only played in America so the entire world of baseball was within continental boundaries and hence they called it the World Series.

Women’s senses are more attuned - women can see more colors than men because of their color vocabulary. They were tested on their ability to see variations in color hues. The results showed that women were more sensitive to different hues, while many men seemed to think that different colors were the same.

Women also have better hearing than men. This is true when it comes to identifying sound frequency and intensity, as well as understanding speech. Women are able to pick up on subtle nuances that men may not recognize. This causes them to be hypersensitive to sound, even while sleeping.

Finally, women have a more keen sense of smell. It is thought that women are more sensitive to body odor in order to better find a potential partner. This heightened sense of smell is also thought to be an evolutionary trait, helping women detect potential dangers in their environment.

1. Man-Flu is more painful than childbirth. This is an irrefutable scientific fact*.

*(Based on a survey of over 100,000 men.)

2. Man-Flu is not 'just a cold'. It is a condition so severe that the germs from

a single Man-Flu sneeze could wipe out entire tribes of people living in the

rainforest. And probably loads of monkeys too.

3. Women do not contract Man-Flu. At worst they suffer from what is

medically recognised as a 'Mild Girly Sniffle' – which, if a man caught, he would

still be able to run, throw a ball, tear the phone book in half and compete in

all other kinds of manly activities.

4. Men do not 'moan' when they have Man-Flu. They emit involuntary groans

of agony that are entirely in proportion to the unbearable pain they are in.

5. Full recovery from Man-Flu will take place much quicker if their simple

requests for care, sympathy and regular cups of tea are met. Is that really so

much to ask? Florence Nightingale would have done it

6. More men die each year from MFN (Man-Flu Neglect) than lots and lots of

other things. (Like rabbit attacks or choking on toast).

7. Men suffering from Man-Flu want nothing more than to get out of bed and

come to work, but they are too selfless to risk spreading this awful condition

amongst their friends and colleagues. In this sense, they are the greatest

heroes this country has ever known.

8. In 1982 scientists managed to simulate the agonising symptoms of full

blown Man-Flu in a female chimp. She became so ill that her head literally fell

off.

9. Man-Flu germs are more powerful than He-Man, The Thundercats and The

A-Team combined. They are too strong for weak, nasty tasting 'lady

medicines' like Lemsip, so don't bother trying to force them on a victim of

Man-Flu.

10. While it may seem like a Man-Flu sufferer is just lying around enjoying

'Diagnosis Murder' it is a commonly recognised medical fact that the exact

pitch and frequency of Dick Van Dyke's voice has remarkable soothing

powers.

Every minute in this country one man is struck down by Man-Flu. Women, all

we ask is that each of you offers them a cup of tea, some kind words and

your undivided attention and care. Then maybe, just maybe, we'll beat this

monstrous disease together...

Just as well it wasn't callled "MRD' that would have made it Emmerdé, which means covered in shit or, simply, shat.

I have often wondered if the creators of Emmerdale included a French speaking joker.
