Vette(s): had a really nice one. sold it to a good friend. Purchased 2004 custom coupe in Feb. 2009 did not tell anyone here until August 2009. BAD I KNOW.

so I was driving the vette down the interstate about 150 miles per hour, when I seen flashing lights behind, thought about running for it and figured I had better pull over.  Officer walked up to the car, said I had a really sharp vette and that it was close to his shift end, so here is what I am going to do "you tell me a reason that I might not have heard before, and I'll walk away."

So I quietly said, "Well you see, my wife just ran off with a police officer, and well I thought it might have been you and that you were trying to give her back."

He walked away....

NOTES FROM A THOUGHTFUL HUSBAND

It is important for men to remember that, as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an oversensitive woman.

My name is Ron. Let me relate how I handled the situation with my wife, Julie. When I took "early" retirement last year, it became necessary for Julie to get a full-time job, both for extra income and for the health benefits that we needed. Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to show her age.

I usually get home from the golf course about the same time she gets home from work. Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always says she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts dinner. I don't yell at her. Instead, I tell her to take her time and just wake me when she gets dinner on the table. I generally have lunch in the Men's Grill at the club so eating out is not reasonable. I'm ready for some home cooked grub when I hit that door.

She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating. But now it's not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after dinner. I do what I can by diplomatically reminding her several times each evening that they won't clean themselves. I know she really appreciates this, as it does seem to motivate her to get them done before she goes to bed.

Another symptom of aging is complaining, I think. For example, she will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the monthly bills during her lunch hour. But, boys, we take 'em for better or worse, so I just smile and offer encouragement. I tell her to stretch it out over two or even three days. That way she won't have to rush so much.

I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then wouldn't hurt her any (if you know what I mean). I like to think tact is one of my strong points.

When doing simple jobs, she seems to think she needs more rest periods. She had to take a break when she was only half finished mowing the yard. I try not to make a scene. I'm a fair man. I tell her to fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of freshly squeezed lemonade and just sit for a while. And, as long as she is making one for herself, she may as well make one for me too.

I know that I probably look like a saint in the way I support Julie. I'm not saying that showing this much consideration is easy. Many men will find it difficult. Some will find it impossible! Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women get as they get older. However, guys, even if you just use a little more tact and less criticism of your aging wife because of this article, I will consider that writing it was well worthwhile. After all, we are put on this earth to help each other... Ron

EDITOR'S NOTE: Ron died suddenly Thursday February 23. He was found with a Calloway extra long 50-inch Big Bertha Driver II rammed up his backside, with only 2 inches of grip showing...His wife Julie was arrested, but the all-woman Grand Jury accepted her defense that he accidentally sat down on it very suddenly.

A boss of a all-in store came back of a short holiday and asked his new young salesman how it worked. The young men give him around 200.000 $.The boss was asthonised and happy and curious HOW that young fellow made so much money in his shop over a weekend.
OH, said the salesboy , there was one person coming to buy a pack of "female monthly protection" ( sorry , don't know the american word, tampons ,?? ??? )   Tampons , asked the boss ??? for 200.000 $ ??? Yes and no , said the boy , he also bought fishing equipment , a boat and even the jeep as he couldn't trail that boat with his car.  The boss was confused and asked what that has to do with eachother ?? Oh , said the boy , i just told him if his wife needed THAT , he  could be as well fishing that weekend....
