If a man says something in the woods and there's no woman around to hear it, is he still wrong?

Potentially the woman is always there to hear so yes.

When I was 4 or 5 I was an atronaut, I was always in a blue Apollo astronaut's jump suit.

Dunno if I got a pic of that, I'd have to dig around for it.
That was just prior to my phase of going around with Dad's acoustic guitar, introducing myself to everyone:
"Hello, my name is Johnny Cash."
That one was captured several times in home movies.

But that's off topic, my thought for the day:
People with laptops can do much mischief.

No. Engineering types. Whenever they got their laptops plugged into the robots you know the robots won't work right. The last time error messages were disabled. In the past safety precautions have been disabled.  Generally the interface just doesn't work right once they are done. The last time I called them to correct malfuntions I overheard one of them saying something had been recently 'added'. Not long ago I had a dream where the robots ate somebody, after the accident I looked and said, "Crap, he was properly locked out and everything." They sprang to life and ate him anyways. I didn't know if engineers had screwed up again, or if the robots decided on their own that they like eating humans. They say they're going to upgrade the technology over the next five years.

You can't have your cake and eat it. (actually I've a problem with this one - if it's your cake (you either found, bought or were given it) it stands to reason that you'd want to chomp into it at some stage. Granted it's fun to share, but hey, if it's your cake and you like cake, well then, why shouldn't you be permitted to eat it? )

per Wikipedia...
The phrase's earliest recording is from 1546 as "wolde you bothe eate your cake, and have your cake?" (John Heywood's 'A dialogue Conteinyng the Nomber in Effect of All the Prouerbes in the Englishe Tongue') alluding to the impossibility of eating your cake and still having it afterwards; the modern version (where the clauses are reversed) is a corruption which was first signaled in 1812.
