OT: Domestic Tranquility

[45Jack]

Both of my kids gave me gift certificates to a sporting goods store for Father's Day.
I mentioned I might use the cards to get a solo canoe. My wife went on for about 45 minutes about why did I need a solo canoe... etc etc. (no big deal, she could still tag along she has her own kayak)
The more she talked the more I thought "She's making my case for a solo canoe for me."

I don't want to say I'm a slow learner, but my lovely bride and I started dating in 1966.
I have come to realize that sometimes no matter how brilliant my thoughts are, verbalizing them may not be in my best interest. So I kept my mouth shut and bought a Marlin 1895G.

When we got it home I showed her one of the bullets and she said, "Wow, that's a big one!"

I know where that comment would have gone 40 years ago...

I can see your a lucky man with good children (and a good woman!). Lots of goodies to play with always makes for happiness.

As far as your last comment in concerned, well, it made me think. Today I met a beautiful woman at the Post Office. She told me she was a real estate agent. Well, I whipped out my **** and asked her ,"Is this a lot?"----------------Sixgun

I'd like to get a medium size solo sea kayak for Lake Michigan as well... ah well. One more thing for the infinite "when I get a paying job" wish list...

Once I met a beautiful real estate agent too. I sidled up next to her and asked her if she could make me feel like a landowner.

She kicked me in the **** and said, "Ok, now you have two achers".
