You might want to get her checked out. I have heard that women can be mean as hell when they go though medapause” 2:36:17 PM 2/14/02 “Naaa, I think 41 is too early for that.” 2:40:25 PM 2/14/02 “that is a little young for that. Who knows then. I didnt have a choice in my divorce. She cheated on me so I couldnt be with her anymore. I would just ask her what is going on and see where it leads. Good luck” 3:13:06 PM 2/14/02 “Damn. Sorry to hear that, Chief.” 3:17:59 PM 2/14/02 “Chief, you're ready to give up on 20 years of marriage?” 3:21:19 PM 2/14/02 “No, I think she's ready to give me up!!!” 3:30:40 PM 2/14/02 “I'm certainly no expert on marriage, having no experience myself, but there's gotta be a way to fix it. Don't you want to make it to your 50th wedding anniversary?” 3:34:07 PM 2/14/02 “If she's 41 and unusually cranky and argumentative then she's probably feeling the effects of menopause. Have her see her gynacologist. No reason to let a treatable physical condition destroy a marriage.” 3:34:20 PM 2/14/02 Let's lighten the mood with some POETRY! “Collards is green, My dog's name is Blue And I'm so lucky To have a sweet thang like you. Yore hair is like cornsilk A-flapping in the breeze. Softer than Blue's And without all them fleas. You move like the bass, Which excite me in May. You ain't got no scales But I luv you anyway. Yo're as satisfy'n as okry Jist a-fry'n in the pan. Yo're as fragrant as "snuff" Right out of the can. You have some'a yore teeth, For which I am proud; I hold my head high When we're in a crowd. On special occasions, When you shave under yore arms, Well, I'm in hawg heaven, And awed by yore charms. Still them fellers at work, They all want to know, What I did to deserve Such a purdy, young doe. Like a good roll of duct tape Yo're there fer yore man, To patch up life's troubles And fix what you can. Yo're as cute as a junebug A-buzzin' overhead. You ain't mean like those far ants I found in my bed. Cut from the best cloth Like a plaid flannel shirt, You spark up my life More than a fresh load of dirt. When you hold me real tight Like a padded gunrack, My life is complete; Ain't nuttin' I lack. Yore complexion, it's perfection, Like the best vinyl sidin'. Despite all the years, Yore age, it keeps hidin'. Me 'n' you's like a Moon Pie With a RC cold drank, We go together Like a skunk goes with stank. Some men, they buy chocolate For Valentine's Day; They git it at Wal-Mart, It's romantic that way. Some men git roses On that special day From the cooler at Kroger. That's impressive," I say. Some men buy fine diamonds From a flea market booth. "Diamonds are forever," They explain, suave and couth. But for this man, honey, These won't do. Cause yore too special, You sweet thang you. I got you a gift, Without taste nor odor, More useful than diamonds...... IT'S A NEW TROLL'N MOTOR!!” 4:56:55 PM 2/14/02 “Wow, Chief, sorry that things are getting that bad. Not everyone handles midlife well. My husband probably thinks that some days he can't do anything right. At least give her the broad picture from your point of view, even if you only do it in writing (try to keep it civil). Maybe she has no clue what it is like to walk in your shoes, because she is caught up in her own unhappiness or frustration. There is a lot of divorce among my relatives, and it is obvious to me that marriage doesn't work well unless each partner is willing sometimes to be selfless. When a big imbalance develops and isn't fixed, divorce often follows.” 6:13:25 PM 2/14/02 “Seems to me that if valentine's day actually 'sucked' it'd be pretty good.. :P” 6:19:11 PM 2/14/02 “Hey Biz do you need a Valentine?” 6:29:36 PM 2/14/02 “NO- I'm Playing Hard to Get this YEAR!” 7:12:15 PM 2/14/02 Damn secret admirers, I hate em “Buddur, groan You're not one of those SECRET admirere types are you??!?? MAN...get some huevos!” 7:18:48 PM 2/14/02 “p.s. Kleety's poem sucks Ü” 7:21:53 PM 2/14/02 “Gawd, I'm afraid to post in here any more... I suck whether I suck or NOT... Or do I? I'm so confused...” 7:47:49 PM 2/14/02 I said "LEOPARD PRINT SHEET!!" “ARE YOU PATHETIC WHINING LOOSERS DEAF OR SOMETHING??!!! HELLLOOOOOOOO, McFLY!!! Check out Snownyphm's pic of her snowboard . . it is resting on a bed that has leopard print sheets (you may need to ignore the fact that there are two snowboards onthe bed, one belonging to snowdude . . .whatever!) For God's sake people . . .let's focus on what's important here, what's real . . .” 9:20:23 AM 2/15/02 I was right! “Valentine's Day was wonderful!!! skullcap.” 9:38:52 AM 2/15/02 “I think I'm gonna hurl... LOL” 10:05:19 AM 2/15/02 How Did I Miss This? “NASA Science News for February 14, 2002 PATCHES FOR A BROKEN HEART Researchers using a space-age device called a bioreactor have grown patches of heart tissue that beat and respond much like a real human heart. Eventually such lab-grown "patches" could be used to repair heart defects or to replace tissue damaged in a heart attack. Full Story” 10:30:30 AM 2/15/02 “they are stealing cool.” 8:23:20 PM 2/15/02 “yes. You suck either way. QUE IS SU PROBLEMO SENOR? Obi-needs to lighten up” 8:35:23 PM 2/15/02 “lee, most of my stuff is animal prints. I was snowshoeing alone, wearing the leopard pants. Only animal tracks in the snow. I was thinking, I hope there's not a big cat out there looking for seks.... cat legs” 8:57:45 PM 2/15/02 It was wonderful from beginning to end!! “6:30 am I get a phone call. He wishes me a happy Valentine's day and informs me that my flight has been booked for a weekend getaway in two weeks. I get off the phone and my eight year old asks who I was talking to. I tell her. She says, "That's who I was guessing! I knew when I heard THAT laugh that you were talking to ____." 6:30 pm I'm having dinner with my children. I ask my eight year old if she likes my flowers; a dozen roses. She says, "Yes! Who got those for you?" I smile. She asks, "____?" I nod. She says, "I knew it! I knew when you smiled THAT smile it was ____." *sigh* I think he likes me. *grin*” 9:09:24 PM 2/15/02 “Chief.... I hope everything works out..., but, if not, kodiakman, ice tea and I have all the strip bars scouted. We can get you into drinking mode real quick, and you can hold an officership in the HMWH Club. In other words, your TT bretheren are here for ya either way. ONLY 364 more days til' Valentines Day! (gag)” 9:58:28 PM 2/15/02 Damn this holiday! “Ok, so i'm sure everyone's anticipating a wonderful Valentine's Day again this year... I was just wondering if anybody had the perfect backpacking Valentine's ecard, from one adventure lover to another? Where can I find the perfect card to e-mail, I've checked all over and I can't seem to find a card appropriate for the backpacking scene.” 3:34:17 PM 2/10/03 This holiday sucks!!! “I dont' have a date, sooo I'm going to the strip club..(I hear that all the guys that strip are gay) Dang it...guess it's tv again or looking for new gear...” 4:15:35 PM 2/10/03 “I have not looked, but you made me think. With all the tools available on the computer and the internet, you might feel the challenge to make a card. But do you really want to send one? All the effort required is probably not worth it.” 4:27:54 PM 2/10/03 Valentine's Day Sucks? “One can only hope. 8D” 4:40:03 PM 2/10/03 “What's Valentine's Day?” 4:44:22 PM 2/10/03 “I'm with you, V. I just dropped $80 at Victoria's Secret :)” 4:50:30 PM 2/10/03 Simer190 “Webshots allows you to send e-cards using pic's from their website. Pathman sent me a pretty one from there for my birthday.” 5:39:56 PM 2/10/03 “btw.. Valentines does not suck. I'm looking forward to this Friday. I can't wait to see OPIE!” 5:46:02 PM 2/10/03 “Dont send a card, send flowers, the "power tools" of dating.” 10:04:20 PM 2/10/03 “LOL Violin!” 10:10:42 PM 2/10/03 “all you ppl who come onto this thread nattering about how wonderful valentines day is can blow me. its you cheerful happy #&%!$os in love that drove us to anger in the first place. piss off! let us have one moments rest from your sappy sloppy twittery.” 10:43:06 PM 2/10/03 “there. i feel better now.” 10:44:34 PM 2/10/03 “VD rocks! It's my chance to reward my spouse for putting up with all my crap for the last 12 months. You gotta take advantage of it..it's a holiday made for hikers!!! LOL Butter them up on VD and then you can hike the rest of the year without any resistance. Believe me, it works.” 11:32:15 PM 2/10/03 “"I'm with you, V.

Tex” 10:44:10 PM 2/11/03 “alot of bitter, lonely bugaboos we are. methinks thats why so many of us spend time alone in the wood, eh?” 11:00:35 PM 2/11/03 “Aw, come on guys. It ain't so bad. Here's a chance to show your lady what she means to you. A nice relaxing meal (and some one else to cook and clean up for you) A chance to connect with her without every day distractions. Take in a movie. Later on a dim candle lit room.....” 5:32:55 AM 2/12/03 4:00:20 PM 2/12/03 “MDS is there something you're trying to tell us. VD rocks? Butter them up on VD. I know that you work in a hospital and that's it's easier for you to get antibiotics, but get real.” 4:07:44 PM 2/12/03 “Okay people, let's get a few things clear before ya get all touchy and start calling me names and "real mature" crap like that. One: I am not a bitter, ugly man with no one to send me Valentine gifts. (Sure I may have a small insecurity problem, but I'm not completely blind nor stupid...Shut up, you!) Two: Yes, I have a heart of sorts. Most of the time it beats. And no, I'm in no way related to the Grinch so lay the #&%!$ off. Three: No, there aren't any tragic reasons of a personal nature that haunt me every Feb 14. ( like, say, some maniac lighting my Dad on fire etc...) The truth of the matter is, I hate pink....No, that's not it mumblemumble#&%!$it-The real truth is, it's all just a #&%!$ty way of getting the card companies a little extra income in (usually) slow month. It's a sneaky way of coming down from the spending high we get from Christmas. No, seriously, what is Valentines Day, anyway? Don't you kiss people all those other days of the year? Don't you eat chocolate and roll around all nude in pink cellophane...um...Wait a moment...Back up...Ahem. Point is, when I'm all gushy over some poor luckless human, I let them know EVERY DAY!!! (Or at least every other day...at the very least on every alternate tuesday...) For God's sake I don't just pick a day and say to myself, "Hey, (insert proper name of lust-like squishy object) will most likely be expecting me to buy that way expensive diamond choker on this day of all days! I gotta show him/her/it I truely love him/her/it or I'll be seen for the shallow just-out-to-get-the-nookie bastard that I really am." First of all, I'd probably pass out from such long run on sentences. Second of all, I have a brain in my #&%!$in' head and realise that people accept me exactly because I'm the just-out-to-get-the-nookie bastard that I really am. The poor dupes. Where was I? Oh, free thinking. Hell, all that sentiant being #&%!$'s over rated. I don't know why I try. Go get yerself a bunch of ballons and have fun ON YOUR WAY STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!! ...And I'll be there with bells on...But certainly not because I have a thing for pink cellophane...” 4:44:01 PM 2/12/03
