How The Fight Started....

Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, and slipped into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to the van, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day.

I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible." My loving wife of 5 years replied, "Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?"

And that's how the fight started...

When I saw the thread's title, I thought it was about Tyson & Hollyfield-MD.

Hilarious (i guess)

So who did she THINK you were?

When I saw the title, I was ready to ban someone. Maybe I'll ban myself.

BTW. I am not married and my GF is 10 years younger than me....so I doubt she even remembers a day when there were milk men.

Then again, she grew up in a small town in Ohio...so it is possible they still have them. Better not go fishing for a while.

I guess your first post on this threw me a bit as you mentioned "wife".

Did you back the boat into the wrong driveway? LOL

GOOD Woman Wanted,
able to cook, sew,
Dig worms and clean fish.
Must have Fishing boat and motor...
Please send picture of boat and motor.

That is an old one...

Anyway, that is one hell of a garage you have there. Able to "hook up the boat to my van and then back out of the garage." For a van and boat to be hooked up end-to-end inside, that garage has to be at least 35-40 feet long, possibly longer. I know of this since I own a couple different vehicle-boat combinations. That is a dream garage, IMO.

Please send picture of garage!!!

loved it - thx. usually my email box carries those to me - nice to see some rampant amusement here ! (funny ! )

gyso,

We may as well go way off hoops topic here...

You would love my neighbor's garage. His house was built around the same time as ours a little over 10 years ago, but he told his wife they were only building if he could have his dream garage.

Three-car garage, but with the left stall two cars deep including a rear overhead door and a driveway extension to the back. The garage is heated, with hot and cold running water and floor drains. Satellite TV with surround sound and a stairway entrance to the basement. The beer cooler sits just inside the entrance to the basement from the garage.

An associate here at my office used the same builder as my neighbor and me, but in a different neighborhood. The builder put in a custom garage for one of his neighbors that home schools their kids. In NY home schooling must include some type of phys. ed. so this garage was finished with a high ceiling structure and commercial overhead doors that run in channels across the ceiling, leaving no rails to interfere with the heated in-garage basketball court they built so the kids could have p/e year-round.

I think you could get the bass boat or fish-and-ski combo hitched in either and be very happy!

Regards

And in the spirit of this thread; one just for mrkleen.

A woman and her lover are in bed when she hears her husband come in the front door unexpectedly early.

"Quick" she says to the guy, "stand over there in the corner and don't move".

She then proceeds to cover him head-to-toe with baby oil and shakes talcum powder all over him.

The husband walks into the bedroom, takes a look and says "what's this?"

She explains "I was at the Johnson's recently and they had a statue in their bedroom. I really liked it and decided we should get one too".

At about 2 in the morning, the husband gets up out of bed, goes to the kitchen and comes back with a sandwich and a beer.

"Here", he says to the statue, "have this." "I stood in a corner at the Johnsons like that for two days and no-one offered me a damn thing".
