It's not easy being green - as one Brazilian man proved when he painted himself to look like the Incredible Hulk - and found the colour wouldn't wash off. Pool attendant Paulo Henrique dos Santos, from Vila Cruzeiro, dressed up as the comic book hero for a running event,but got a nasty shock when the time came to remove the green paint.
After frantic scrubbing, the hapless chap realised he'd used a paint reserved for ballistic missiles and nuclear submarines.
According to Brazilian news site Paulo had hoped to buy a brand of paint he'd used on a previous outing as the Hulk, but the shop he went to didn't have it.
Desperate to undo his inking, the would-be superhero spent Sunday and Monday having 'about 20 baths,' and was forced to sleep in a room lined with plastic bags.
He feared the industrial paint could actually give him lead poisoning, though he appears to have had no symptoms.
The 35-year-old, who also works as a DJ in Rio de Janeiro and is known as MC Marronzinho, has achieved overnight celebrity in his local area.
As if being bright green wasn't embarrassing enough, the local press ran pictures of his mother trying to remove the paint - and referred to her as his girlfriend.
So was he left feeling blue? Amazingly, Paulo says he doesn't regret the incident.

My wife had an affair with her old boyfriend – can I still trust her?
My wife lied and lied about what had happened with an old boyfriend from her schooldays. In the end it was her lover’s wife who told me it was a full-blown affair.
I’m 48 and my wife’s 46. We’ve just celebrated our silver wedding anniversary and had booked to go away for a week. The day before we were due to leave my wife rang me at work in tears. She said I needed to come home but didn’t say why.
I rushed home and she told me someone had put something on Facebook saying she’d had an affair. She said it wasn’t true but when I asked her if she’d been seeing someone, she said she’d met a guy for dinner.
He was an ex-boyfriend from years ago. She said they’d only had dinner, nothing more. She said she’d never do anything to hurt me or the kids – we’ve two teenage girls. We went on holiday that night and had a good time until the last night.
I couldn’t sleep. I kept wondering whether she was telling me the truth. The next morning I asked her if she’d slept with this guy and she admitted she had but just the once. I broke down in tears.
My wife received a text from her ex’s wife as soon as we got back home. She wanted to speak to my wife but my wife said she couldn’t face it so I rang her. She told me they’d been having an affair for six months starting last October and asked that my wife leave her husband alone.
My wife still tried to deny it at first but I cried and pleaded with her to be honest. We’ve talked, argued and cried but I still find it hard because I’m sure she hasn’t told me everything. She started going out “with a girlfriend” on Wednesday nights more than a year ago and that is when I now know she accepted this guy on Facebook.
I am heartbroken. It’s put a huge strain on our marriage.

A wife asked her husband to drop her at her friend's house, where a wedding was taking place. He said he would be too busy in the office and gave her some money for taxi.
He left for office.
Later at the wedding place, she met a fine girl and they got talking to each other. Soon they became friends. In the evening when everyone was leaving, the girl asked the woman how she was going home. She replied dat her husband is too busy in d office, so he can't come to pick her and she was going in a taxi.
The girl now said, 'My boyfriend who brought me here is coming to pick me up. I just spoke with him on phone and he's on his way to pick me. Why don't you join me in his car and we drop you at your house?' The woman agreed and a few minutes later, her husband's car arrived.
The girl entered the front passenger's seat of the car and asked the woman to sit at the back, which she did. The girl introduced her new friend to the boyfriend. When he turned round to greet the woman, he recognized her as his wife. They dropped the wife at home and left.
If you were the wife, what would you do when your husband returns... If you were the husband what will you say to your wife when you return?

A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with fascination, looking at the old pages as he turned them.
Then something fell out of the Bible and he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that has been pressed in between the pages.
"Momma, look what I found," the boy called out.
"What have you got there, dear?" his mother asked.
With astonishment in the young boy's voice he answered, "It's Adam's suit!!

5 thoughts women have about their men
1. She thinks you might not call her after a date
The first step to building a woman’s trust is to following through with what you promise her. So if you say you are going to call her on Thursday, call her Thursday. If you say Friday, do it. If that’s not your style, though, or you’d like to keep a little mystery, don’t be definite about when you’ll be calling. It’s better than breaking a promise and at least she won’t be waiting by the phone on a certain day.
2. She thinks you just want to have sex with her
It’s a hard line to walk: If you make a move too soon, she’ll think that’s all you want. If you wait too long, she’ll think you’re just interested in her friendship. So the best way to work this is to just be sincere. If you are genuinely interested in pursuing a relationship with her, let her know. From there, she’ll give you the signals to let you know when she’s ready to get romantic with you.
3. She thinks you’re dating other women
As long as you are honest about it, casually dating more than one woman at the same time is perfectly acceptable– just don’t lie about it. Keep in mind that once you both become intimate or the relationship turns serious, she might assume you are her’s exclusively.

4. She thinks you’re not that interested
At times, even the most confident woman sometimes needs a little reassurance that you’re interested in her and that she still has it. You could let her know how special she is to you by complimenting her or sending her flowers. Find ways to make your woman feel special through a romantic gesture like calling her in the middle of the day for no reason at all. If you both have been in a relationship for a while, you need to work extra hard to reassure her that you still find her attractive. Flirting with other women in front of her can also make her feel insecure. Remember, when you’re with her,devote all your attention to her.
5. She thinks you’re cheating on her
If you haven’t given her a reason to feel that you’re cheating on her and she continues to accuse you of it, discuss the issue with her and let her know that you are committed and have no intention of straying. Believe it or not, lots of women have a lot of performance anxiety in the bedroom. If you’re sex life is going well be sure to let her know it. If not, however, be sure to address the issue in the most sensitive manner possible.
Yes, the world of dating is harsh. But if you genuinely care about her, with a little foresight and sincerity, you can make her feel more secure about your relationship and about herself and boost her ego.
