What would the numbers be for XBOX, PS, WII?

Ah, but that doesn't count freepmails, which are probably triple the number of posts! WOOT!

[CzarNicky]

what's a spouse?

[AmericanMade1776]

I say those odds are even higher for Bill Clinton and his computer

[Catholic Canadian]

My spouse and I can't keep our hands off one another, so no problems here.

I just checked with my wife Sally and she said I spend AT LEAST that just on FR. I find it hard to believe.

[BunkDetector]

Wait a sec...did I say Sally?
It's Ann. That's it ...Ann.
I knew that.

[Tijeras_Slim]

What's your take on this?

Does posting to each other count?

So, what does your wife have to say about that, Sparky? ;-)

Please tell me you're joking.

That is the first time in over a month that I have seen the contraction of "you are" used correctly instead of the word "your."

Thank you.

[toros]

I guess I get the award for just the opposite.

You're welcome. Although, part of the problem is that spell checkers won't flag the correct spelling of the wrong word.

This can only be good news for marriage.

It's probably just legend...
but I think it was said that the likely secret for the survival
of Abraham Lincoln's marriage was the months he spent each year
as a circuit-riding lawyer.

[Old Professer]

You forgot: dump Norton.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Their you go! Won of my pet peaves too!

[gcruse]

Happily, I'm divorced and don't have to give up any necessary keyboard time for things like human relations. Everybody is better off this way. Believe me. LOL

[Fierce Allegiance]

Although you should be shot for the HT pics! Seriesly!

You're welcome. Although, part of the problem is that spell checkers won't flag the correct spelling of the wrong word.

Alas!

Spell-checkers don't come into play for hand painted signs at nationally televised football games proclaiming "Your dead!" or printed reminders from companies that "Your overdue for an oil change" or a sign that says "your next in line" at a department store.

Even a TV show had a note pictured from a kidnapper that said "Your dead" written on it.
