Wanted a Miroku 45-70 back in the 90s. Talked with the wife about it as it was a fair bit of coin for us back in the day. I had an opportunity to do some extra work to earn the money without affecting the household budget. So she agreed. A month or so later, I walk through the door with said 1886 in hand. Wifey is sitting on the couch with a couple of friends and it gets real quiet as I walk through the living room. A bit later they leave and she’s in the kitchen. I asked her something about seeing the gun and she turns and launches the 2 qt. saucepan at me. I quickly duck and beat a hasty retreat.
After a few hours, I came back and ask her WTH that was about. Apparently yes meant no and I was supposed to know the difference and I embarrassed her in front of her friends! She was always a bit crazy 😵💫
