I wonder why it is that.......

[Stir Young]

........today I could hear a guy's cell phone ring in his closed up car on the street, while I was sitting on the patio of the rib joint about 60 feet away.....yet 25 years ago when I was married, I couldn't hear my wife, walking right next to me in the mall, saying "oh look, new purses in that store....lets go in for a sec"?

I've been told that I need to get my husband's attention before saying something to him, he doesn't hear it otherwise.

A 2x4 upside my head always got my attention.

ROTFL Bob!
A tap on the shoulder works for George.

Very funny.....

Cowboy,
Hey now...what ever happened to "blow in my ear and I'll follow you anywhere"?

[Bob Stepp]

That works real well....yes it does....!!

[larry kremis]

What? Did you say something?

[Bob Stepp]

If a woman says something and no man is around to hear it, did she really say something?

[Stir Young]

Did she really say something even if he did hear her?

I might get some flak on that one.

[realteal]

Ahem: ignoring, ignoring, ignoring blatently rude sexist comment. Yes, I did say something.

Now, methinks, Gary, that you owe your wife a heap of thanks, for she be the one who
trained your superpower ears. Without her, you wouldn't be alert enough to hear the guy's cell phone if he was sitting next to you on a park bench.

[Stir Young]

Uh, what guy on the park bench?

[realteal]

Purely hypothetical.
