Yes, but that's because she's chasing the boys with the fork screaming at the top of her lungs "STOP THAT"

Of course my wife is hot. I suspect her vision isn't too good, though, since she picked me

And she's cool, too -- a coach with the Canada's National Rugby program, a varsity university rugby team (Go Gaels!), and she owns a Miata and autocrosses it when not coaching. She also owns half of the Elise (the "doesn't need gas or tires" half).

Oh really? Wow!!! What do you do with it? (Well, besides the obvious.)

I mostly use it to control the lights and sound on the stage while she pole dances for me.

So are you two leftover Canadian hippies that are allowing your children to find their own sexual identity, or what?

Luckily for us both (or not, actually) I did OK trading the Benz in when I picked up the Mazda2.

I found some sneaky rust hiding in the rear quarters under the carpet, and it had just lunched its idler pulley and A/C compressor pulley. (One led to the other.) After pricing out the replacement parts and considering the rust, I was no longer comfortable selling the car to someone I know (even on the internet). Covet away, the Benz is for sale at a local dirt lot now.

Back to the original topic- It's very encouraging to see long, (healthy?) marriages on here. They say that stuff is hard nowadays.

You are not berkeleying kiddin'. Every anniversary that passes I get a little choked up with just one thought...

If it had been murder two... I'd be out by now. Marriage is a death sentence.

My condolences ....

When I married Mrs. 914 >30 years ago she had very very long curly hair, a nice shape, washboard stomach, loves to cook and put up with me.

Anything life has thrown at her to change these things, I have not noticed.

Yes. Somehow she gets hotter as she ages. I am a lucky man.

You do realize this thread is a potential death sentence for all of us if the S.O.'s find out. Option 1: You post, with picture. Response: You put my picture where? Result: You are killed. Jury walks your wife b/c "You deserved it." Option 2: You post, without picture. Response: So you're embarrassed of the way I look, huh? Result: You are killed. Jury walks your wife b/c "You deserved it". Option 3: You don't post. Response (after having looked through the thread and found no picture or post ) - same as option two. Result: You are killed, only more slowly and painfully, because she had an hour of thread review to get REALLY p.o.'d at you. Jury compromises, finds your wife guilty of lessor offense of improper disposal of a dead body. IMHO - this thread has all the potential upside of "Does this make my butt look big?" That said, I chose option 2: Yes, she's hot, no you're not gettin' pictures.

I'm a big Frank fan, hence the joke. They say Frank never designed a roof that didn't leak like a sieve at some point.

Oh yeah. My wife is way hot.

While skimming this thread, the overall context makes that bit read differently than it's supposed to.

12 and bit years for us. Not as long as some here, but then I'm 33 and have a couple of years on her.

As far as pictures go, I'll just re-use the one posted to sprockets a month and a half ago. Taken the day she bought her bike (and the day after passing her MSF class).

My wife and I are past the 14-year mark. It's had it's tough times.
The toughest was when our newborn son died. I still get choked up thinking about it, 10 years later. I remember, just weeks into the grieving process we heard statistics that shows a vast number of marriages end due to the fallout of things like that. I knew if we could make it through that, we'd be good for life.
It's still work to keep it going sometimes but, I've never been happier.

Now, if she'd just buy me another GLH she'd be perfect.
