Before a BBQ - so very true!

READ BEFORE HAVING A BBQ
Barbecue Season Is Coming!
After the long months of cold and winter, we will soon becoming up to summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking as it's the only type of cooking a real man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved.
When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
Routine ...
1) The woman buys the food.
2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
Here comes the important part:
4) The man places the meat on the grill.
More routine....
5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.
Important again:
7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman
More routine.....
8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces and brings them to the table.
9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off." And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....

A lady went into her local hardware store and bought two instant barbeques - the ones with the pictures of succulent foods on the lid.
The next day, she returned one of these to the customer service desk at the store complaining that there was no food inside! The assistant patiently told her that these were just barbeque trays and that the food was not supplied with them.
"Oh dear" said the lady. "I'd better take the other one out of the freezer then"!

A man was doing his first solo parachute jump.
Everything went fine, until he pulled the cord, and his chute didn't open.
As he plummetted toward the ground he saw something coming toward him. As it got closer he realised it was a man hurtling up through the air. As they passed each other the parachutist yelled,
"do you know anything about parachutes??"
The man replied,
"No. Do you know anything about gas Barbeques????"
