And she tends to plan more things into a span of time than will possibly fit. And go to step 3 or 5 before step one is complete. She also thinks, relates incidents, tells jokes not in concrete sequential, but in Venn diagrams (she admits it). Sometimes the Venn diagrams have Venn diagrams. Often from two or 3 rooms away and/or different floors. She's been a good wife for 45 years tho. I think I'll keep her. Me? I'm damned near perfect! Last edited by las; 03/21/24.

I also feel the same way after 46 years. Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.
