> [@AuntiePam](#): > > Your wife is lovely and you look exactly like I’ve pictured. I couldn’t help but notice that lovely quilt under some of the artwork. Did your wife make it? Yes she did, and all the paintings are hers also. She has been an artist for years, and now doing some pretty powerful abstract paintings. She is also an acomplished bonsai cultivator. I’m a lucky guy, married 57 years (to the same gal). Possible the only woman in captivity who could stand me for all those years. ---

> [@wonderlust](#): > > Captivity? :eek: Indoor wives live much longer and healthier lives, you know. Outdoor wives roam, dig up and defecate in the neighbor’s garden, get in fights with other wives, get hit by cars, pick up fleas - the list goes on and on. Nope, indoor wives are the way to go. 😛 ---

I don’t suppose that you meant to reveal all those photos, but my goodness you are a lucky man **KlondikeGeoff**. _tips hat_ The cat picture here: [http://gallery.me.com/eardogproductions#100172/IMG\_0100&bgcolor=black](http://gallery.me.com/eardogproductions#100172/IMG_0100&bgcolor=black) is awesome is awesome cat.

> [@Struan](#): > > t. > > I’m not so sure about this monstrous flying pike though: That puzzled me too. The restaurant is called The Blowfish, so maybe they thought this was a _fugu_ (Jpanese for the poisonous blowfish)? ---
