Or she may be wanting to make lasting impression wearing this.

Now during the latter part of my frst marriage I could understand why some disparage it but not any longer. Serendipity (if you want to call it that) does exist. I left the comfort and safety of my hotel to head to the airport in a blizzard (Yes I knoow I am really not that stupid). I followed an eighteen wheeler up I-95 at 40 and 50 MPH with no problems. I wound up in the lobby of a Holiday Inn and met Florence. Some driver managed to overturn his truck in a traffic circle and she could not get home. She was nervous and seemed afraid so I protected her all that night. We could not sleep and talked all night. In the morning we shook hands exchanged addresses and I left for the airport. After being back in Canada three days I wrote the first letter. Many letters later we knew we were in love and we married, Serendipity - well we think it was a higher power.

So Dave keep an open mind, and best of luck.

I convinced my wife that vacuum tubes repel spiders. I think she suspects I may be lying, but she is wise enough not to argue with someone who is so fearless that he mashes them with his finger.

I always figured that you were a lounge lizard and you picked her up at the bar.

But I'll take your word for things.

and dated thin, long-legged, full-breasted women, and hunted and fished

and raced cars, and went to titty bars and dated ladies half his age

and drank whiskey, beer, and Captain Morgan, and never heard bitching

and never paid child support or alimony, and dated cheerleaders and

kept his house and guns, and ate spam and potato chips and beans, and

blew enormous farts, and never got
cheated on while he was at work,

and all his friends and family thought he was friggin' cool as hell,

and he had tons of money in the bank, and left the toilet seat up.


The End.

Chas
This may be the best post I ever read.

Sounds like a fairy tale though.

I wish you the best of luck Dave. It's a wonderful thing to have someone who cares more about you than what she can get in return.

Regards,

D-Ray
