... my mother wearily arrived at Rhein-Main Air Base in Germany with my eight siblings and me - all under age 11.

Collecting our many suitcases, the ten of us entered the cramped customs area. A young customs official watched our entourage in disbelief, "Ma'am," he said, "do all these children and this luggage belong to you?"

"Yes, sir," my mother said with a sigh. "They're all mine."

The customs agent began his interrogation: "Ma'am, do you have any weapons, contraband or illegal drugs in your possession?"

"Sir," she calmly answered, "if I'd had any of those items, I would have used them by now?"

The official allowed us to pass without opening a single suitcase.

Sarah said teasingly, "Would you swap me for season tickets?"

"Absolutely not," he said, "season's more than half over."

... after she had imbibed a little too much at an office reception. Although this was an innocent gesture, he decided not to mention it to his wife, who tended to get jealous easily.

The next night the man and his wife were driving to a restaurant. Suddenly he looked down and spotted a high-heel shoe half hidden under the passenger seat. Not wanting to be conspicuous, he waited until his wife was looking out her window before he scooped up the shoe and tossed it out of the car.

With a sigh of relief, he pulled into the restaurant parking lot. That's when he noticed his wife squirming around in her seat. "Honey," she asked, "have you seen my other shoe?"

What's in a name? Apparently, a lot more than you (or I) ever thought there was. Here's what his pet name for you really means.....

• Darling -- Depends on how he says it. If he stresses the first syllable, then he's probably done something wrong or wants money.
• Dear -- Probably a leftover from his parents. Expect him to wear woolly cardigans, smoke a pipe and prefer a mug of Ovaltine to lager.
• Sweetheart -- If it's said patronizingly, it's not so sweet. But when uttered in earnest, it may send your own sweet heart aflutter.
• Babe -- Not to be confused with the film of the same name. Check for flares or signs that he's a 70s throwback. He's a bit of a medallion man. Chances are he's got his initials on his chunky ring. Leave immediately if he tries to sell you a second-hand car.
• Baby doll -- This type of man will probably require you to wear transparent frilly nighties even in the dead of winter. He doesn't want you to grow up, and obviously can't deal with real women.
• Princess -- Never trust a man who calls you princess. You may think you're being treated like royalty, but beware of Prince Charmings - they may be secretly plotting your over- throw.
• Sexy -- Fine if you're sexy. If you're not, who cares? He probably thinks you are anyway!!
• My girlfriend -- He's honest, open and probably glad to have you around. The next thing you know he'll be using your name!
• The wife -- If you're married then he probably thinks he owns you. If you're not, he probably thinks you act like his wife, in which case, he thinks he owns you.
• My other half -- You complete the set - he's only half a man without you. But it may make you feel as though you are losing your identity somewhere.
• The missus -- See The Wife.
• My partner -- He's right on. Probably likes eating tofu and hugging trees.
• My significant other -- He's even more right on. Probably thinks it's cruel to eat tofu and that trees need their own space.
• She who must be obeyed -- He thinks you're a nag, but probably doesn't lift a finger around the house...

Men are like ...

• Husbands are like children -- they're fine if they're someone else's.

• Men's brains are like the prison system -- not enough cells per man.

• Men are like place mats. They only show up when there's food on the table.

• Men are like mascara. They usually run at the first sign of emotion.

• Men are like bike helmets. Handy in an emergency, but otherwise they just look silly.

• Men are like parking spots. All the good ones are taken.

• Men are like lava lamps. Fun to look at, but not all that bright.

• Men are like bank accounts. Without a lot of money, they don't generate much interest.

• Men are like high heels. They're easy to walk on once you get the hang of it.

• Never trust a man who says he's the boss at home. He probably lies about other things too.

• A woman's work that is never done is the stuff she asked her husband to do.

• Go for younger men. You might as well -- they never mature anyway.

First line, and the least romantic second line:

• My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
  Marrying you has screwed up my life.
   
• I see your face when I am dreaming.
  That's why I always wake up sweating and screaming.
   
• Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
  This describes everything that you are not.
   
• I thought that I could love no other
  -- that is until, I met your brother.
   
• Roses are red, violets are blue,
  sugar is sweet, and so are you.
   
• But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead,
  the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.
   
• I want to feel your sweet embrace;
  But don't take that paper bag off of your face.
   
• I love your smile, your face, and your eyes
  Damn, I'm good at telling you lies! 
   
• My love, you take my breath away.
  What have you stepped in to smell this way?

This is powerful advice for all you babies out there. Parents, please leave now, or you will be punished. Okay, now that the minions are gone, let's get down to business.

Do you feel like you have no control over your life? Do your mommy and daddy make you do and wear things you absolutely hate? Are you at the bottom of your family's power structure? I'm here to tell you that all this can be a thing of the past. By following my ten simple rules, you'll be wearing the diaper and the pants in the family in no time!

Rule #1 - You have absolute power. 

Repeat this to yourself on a daily basis. You are the ruler of your universe. Your parents are there to serve you, not the other way around. You have unlimited power over them.

Rule #2 - Cry.

Tears are your biggest asset in your arsenal against your parents. If you don't like something, cry! Parents have absolutely no defense against this wet onslaught. They will do anything to get you to stop. This is especially useful in public places. For maximum effectiveness, increase volume every fifteen seconds.

Rule #3 - Be cute.

This is your number one defense mechanism. You're going to pull a lot of crap most people would never get away with, and your cute factor is the only thing allowing this. Flash a smile, and your parents will go weak in the knees with gushing admiration of your blessed existence, even after you've just broken half the stuff in the house.

Rule #4 - Keep them weak.

I don't care if you have to set an alarm clock for yourself, but you need to wake your parents up at least three times a night. A rested parent is a strong parent, and that means bad news for you. The more weary they are, the more malleable to your intricate plans of global domination.

Rule #5 - Pee on them.

Once out of every ten diaper changes, you should let loose your golden stream of glory. This shows them who's boss, and keeps them on their toes. If you can, aim for the face for maximum effectiveness. At the very least, you should be able to cover yourself as well as a portion of your parent's clothes. This works well for those situations where they've put you in an embarrassing outfit, or they're in a hurry to get somewhere

Rule #6 - Make them carry you.

Do not let them put you down! This is very important. The moment they realize you can get around by yourself, they will no longer want to carry you. If you are put on the ground, see rule #2. Your parents are strong, and there's two of them. They can carry you forever.

Rule #7 - Smack them around a little.

Parents are under the false impression that we have very little control over our arms and legs. Use this to your advantage! Every now and then, just randomly slap them in the face, and then smile and laugh. They may curse a little, but I guarantee no harm will come to you. They are powerless against the smile and laugh combination.

Rule #8 - Women and grandparents love babies.

Capturing this key demographic can bring you joys beyond your wildest expectations. Toys, food, and attention can all be yours when you manipulate this segment of the population. Gramps will even let you watch the Spice channel if nobody else is around!

Rule #9 - Siblings exist for your amusement.

Your brothers and sisters are the court jesters in your vast kingdom. They are there for your personal entertainment, and nothing more. Laugh at their crazy antics, but the moment they get out of line with that "the baby gets all the attention" crap, pull their hair. One word of warning though. Make sure a parent is nearby when you do this, as siblings are immune to your cute defense mechanisms. Be sure to cry, so your parent is alerted to your mortal danger.

Rule #10 - No private time.

This is perhaps the most important rule of them all. Do not let your parents have private time! If you hear these evil words uttered, alarms should go off in your head. Nothing good can come from private time. At the very least, private time rejuvenates them, making them more resistant to your powers. And in the worst possible scenario, private time could lead to a new baby replacing you as the ruler of the house! This event needs to be stopped at all costs!

That's it, troops. Follow these simple rules and you should have a long and fruitful reign as ruler of your household.

You have the power!
