Determining The Sex I stopped at a friend's shop the other day and found him stalking around with a fly swatter. When I asked if he was gettin' any flies, he answered, "Yeah, 3 males and 2 females". Curious, I inquired as to how he could tell the difference. He answered, "3 were on a beer can, and 2 were on the phone." [Thanks to Les Pourciau]
