Title: Don't you hate it when there right?
Post by: RTFM on November 28, 2011, 06:27:06 PM
Bump goes the sound in the car port Saturday night.
Click goes the motion light.
Into the hand goes the Ruger Security 6 .357 Magnum (closest gun at hand)
Skitter I go down the hallway to get the brightest search light I own (night stand)
Charge goes me to the front door.
Stop short was I by wife in kitchen - hand up arm outstretched.

Where do you think your going? ! Says she.
Outside to investigate says I!
No your not! Says she.
um......... (click - dim light in my squash starts to flicker)
Where is it safer right now? Says she.
Inside where we know is secure - or out there where we have no clue - who what where when why how?

um........(Ding! We have a winner)

Don't you hate it when they may have saved your life?!

- Turns out - tom cat knocks over a cd tower we have in storage in the car port.
Thinking is still our best security too we poses people...... even when it takes someone else to do it for us.

I love her dearly - just don't let her know......

Sounds like a keeper to me (the wife, not the cat). ;D General rule of thumb, let them come to you, unless there is good reson to do otherwise. Better to have them walking through a doorway when you know they are coming, rather than the reverse. Besides, it cuts down on legal fees.

The worst thing about them being right is they'll NEVER let you forget it!!

When they're wrong, however................................
Had the following conversation with my wife today, when she returned from the insurance agent's office:
Her:  "Well, you were right about the premium payment method."
Me:  "What was that?"
Her:  "I said you were right about the premium payment method.  Didn't you hear me?"
Me:  "I heard you just fine, I just REALLY wanted to hear it again."
Her:  "Blow me."

And the obvious response of, " An excellent idea my darling, after you" seems like it might irritate M'lette. ;D

Look at it this way. When you were single you did far worse things than obeying the house rules to get laid. You still win. ;D

Now this is why a married man is so much luckier than a single man.

A single man might make a mistake and never know he made it.

I don't know about that Solus.  I once had a gorgeous, 6' blonde give a right cross as a reminder of my stupidity!  It was the only time I've been knocked on my ass!

Did you manage to keep her?

For a time, yes!  I was a young man then of merely 22 or so, she was a tad bit older and we worked together for several years.  It was one of many, many, many girlfriends I've had over the years while fishing for the "one"!

My wife of 28 years is 5' nothing and a brunette.  She doesn't have the reach!

I don't hate it when they're right, I hate it when they know they're right! 

BTW I've only been hit once by a woman (that I remember) and I laughed at her.  Granted it was my first wife and she was leaving me and our three kids but she wound up and hit me with the phone in her hand with all she had.  Would have taken a hit ten times harder if I'd known that was the end of her BS  ;D

Its not the gun safe you need to worry about, its the kitchen knives. To quote Louis Carrol "The Vorpal blade goes snicker snack". Just ask John Wayne Bobbit. ;D
