    It's a sobering thought that when Mozart was my age, he had been dead for thirty years.

    Out to dinner with the wife the other evening, she was trying to get me to have a huge fru-fru salad versus a nice big steak.

    Finally I said to her, sweetie, nice try, but I'll believe a salad is "to die for" when a convict chooses one for his last meal.

    Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.
    Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.

    True story from my house

    My wife loves to use We can do this or We can do that for intended or planed work around the house. About 5 years ago I told her I deciphered the code, by simply turning the w upside down I got the meaning of what she was saying.
