[QUOTE=scout1222] Tough crowd… [/QUOTE] Just think of the look on her face when she asked if you were going to the ball game, you said no you had to go hang out with some dopers. :eek: She would probably ask you what? You could say that you had to go to a dopefest. :eek: :eek: It would be priceless. 😃 Congrats on your marriage.
