Good point Dennis. It's not the numbers that matter, it's the addiction.

I'll take the neck, Clark.

At least some of you will get that I hope. Agreed with the sentiment.

Wife stayed with her mother other night...

And joked about me having other women over. I said "NO WAY! I had Motor Trend [TV] and models". And I did. I worked on models and watched Junk Yard Gold on MT. And loved every minute of it.

What was that song.....?

... "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife." After being married to two of 'em, I'd have to agree:(

Whoaa John...lol...Jimmy Soul's version goes like this :

If you wanna be happy for the rest if your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So from my personal point of view get an ugly girl to marry you
A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall
As soon as he marries her, then she starts
To do the things that will break his heart
But if you make an ugly woman your wife
You'll be happy for the rest of your life
An ugly woman cooks meals on time
She'll always give you peace of mind...
...or a piece a her mind...my lyrics there, lol

Sorry Mr. Shamblin, I can't agree with you. I've been married for 46 1/2 years to a beautiful woman inside and out. She's been my princess from the moment we met 48 years ago. It was Roy Clark who sang, "If I Had To Do It All Over Again, I'd Do It With You", and to my wife I relate those words often.

In January this year, we found out she had cancer. She spent the entire month of February and two weeks in March in the hospital in the intensive care unit. It was the hardest thing either of us has ever faced together.

When she came home, I became her care-giver while she was tired and weak from the chemotherapy treatments. What was involved in her care by me, I can assure you I would have never imagined doing when I said "I do" all those years ago.

And I can tell you this, through this ordeal, I've come to love her even more than I ever thought I could. Two weeks ago we got our first good news, her cancer is in remission. With lots of prayers we continue to hold hands together.
