It's Never a Lie When Your Wife Tells It

Weekly Standard ^ | Larry Miller

[catpuppy]

I can see myself going through all this trouble only to discover something like a top water fishing lure in there.

What a great anniversary gift! One has to admire a man who goes out of his way to buy his sweetheart something she'd never buy for herself. Coming next year: matching lug wrenches.

I can see myself going through all this trouble only to discover something like a top water fishing lure in there. Then I'll faint

Allright! I love women who fish! Such enthusiasm!

Remember curiosity killed the cat...........nine times!

[Eaker]

Nah, Eaker's not the type to shave his eyebrows, but he's probably singed them off with some particularly optomistic handload.

Slim,

What happens at Deer Camp Stays at Deer Camp!!

[Eaker]

Y'all come look at this!!

[sd-joe]

>> "I've got a brand new roll of saran wrap" <<

Pictures please.

[B4Ranch]

I just don't remember it being part of my wedding vows.

That's nothing to be concerned about, Annie says my memory has been in sad shape for a couple of decades. It generally conflicts with hers and of course I have to be the one in error.

[Lazamataz]

This is some funny stuff.

[Valin]

With no woman around, who gave him permission to speak?

I never thought of that, but than I am a man and so am not used to thinking.

"I'm a man, but I can change...if I have to...I guess"
The mans prayer

[Hillary's Folly]

This is some funny stuff.

YEah, Larry Miller is one of my favorites. The line about switching from beer to whiskey kills me. Hits a little too close to home.

[T-Bird45]

Guffaw....snort....LOL!!!!!

Larry Miller bump!! Thanks for a great start to the day.

[Valin]

Today is my wedding anniversary

Happy anniversary! And many many more.

Tom, I know you guys allow cameras. What you do with the pictures should be restricted to the attendees, unless it has to do with ammo failure, of course.

[TexasCowboy]

What these guys did is akin to telling your wife that her butt looks big in her new dress.
You just don't do that! No matter if it looks like she's going to a party for Hottentot emigrants, you tell her she's beautiful.

If she comes in with her hair in flying cornrows that remind you of Medusa, you swallow your fear of being turned to stone and tell her it accents her face perfectly.

About a week of eating sardines out of a can and hugging the couch pillows will convince any man that discretion is the better part of valor.
Maybe after fifteen or twenty years while you're looking through an old photo album a man can subtly suggest that she looked so young in that photo, and maybe it was due to the fact that her hair made her look human.

[B4Ranch]

I knew an old feller like you would have words of guidance to offer. I am sure this is from personal experience. Correct?

I have printed your words and taped them into the back of my address book so they'll be handy when the storm clouds come.

[Quilla]

Well happy anniversary to you too Valin!

[Xenalyte]

They waxed their natural brows completely off and drew new ones in with eyeliner, a la Joan Crawford.

[FourPeas]

Ah, such is the benefits of marrying an older man. They've already learned that in life, some sacrifices are necessary, even if you really like sardines and sleeping on the couch.

[Xenalyte]

Ain't it, though? I've loved Larry Miller since WAY back in the day.

Yo Bacon . . . remember Larry's bit about skiing and the mountain goat?

[FourPeas]

Any of you lady freepers do this to your eyebrows?

Given that I'm blonde (even my eyebrows) and very fair skinned, uh,.... NO.

[steveo]

bump for later
